the matrix functions appear in several applications in engineering and sciences. the computation of these functions almost involved complicated theory. thus, improving the concept theoretically seems unavoidable to obtain some new relations and algorithms for evaluating these functions. the aim of this paper is proposing some new reciprocal for the function of block anti diagonal matrices. more...

Introduction: The NASA Glenn Research Center (GRC) is conducting in-house research on linear alternators (LA’s) to assist in developing free-piston Stirling convertors for radioisotope space power systems. This abstract intends to summarize the existing and potential types of LA’s that may be used with Stirling power convertors. Many of the existing LA types have been tested at NASA GRC and wor...

Various grating configurations are introduced to develop structures for the mode conversion of an ultrafast, ultrawide-bandwidth optical pulse propagating in a layered dielectric waveguide. Introducing a new technique for efficient, real-time mode extraction, we examine these schemes with a full-wave, vector, finite difference time domain (FDTD) Maxwell equation simulator. The resulting FDTD si...

Gadolinium (Gd) neutron capture plays an important role in both Gd neutron capture therapy and neutron detection. Detailed information about the lowenergy electron spectrum emitted after Gd neutron capture is essential for accurately determining the dose delivery to the target and healthy tissues, as well as the effectiveness of Gd against other neutron convertors such as boron (B) and lithium ...

High peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction is one of the major challenges in orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) systems since last decades. High PAPR increases the complexity of analogue-to-digital (A/D) and digital-to-analogue (D/A) convertors and also reduces the efficiency of RF highpower-amplifier (HPA). In this paper, we present a new DiscreteHartley transform (DH...

The homeland security has become a very significant consideration for all the Governments throughout the world. To improve the OPerational SECurity (OPSEC), multi relational graphs were introduced for Covert Network Analysis (CNA). In this paper, proposed SpyNetMiner system identifies the key players who maximally influence the covert network. Abnormality of the nodes is analyzed based on the p...

In evaluating Analog to Digital Convertors, many parameters are checked for performance and error rate. One of these parameters is the device Effective Number of Bits. In classical testing of Effective Number of Bits, testing is based on signal to noise components ratio (SNR), whose coefficients are driven via frequency domain (Fourier Transform) of ADC’s output signal. Such a technique is extr...

This paper explains about the voltage output for DC to DC boost converter between open loop, PID controller and fuzzy logic controller through Matlab Simulink. Simulink input voltage was set at 12V and the voltage reference was set at 24V. The analysis on the deviation of voltage resulted that the difference between reference voltage setting and the output voltage is always lower. Comparison be...

Applications of ferroelectric ceramics, ranging from components for sensors, memory devices, microelectromechanical systems, and energy convertors, all involve planar and rigid layouts. The brittle nature of such materials and their high-temperature processing requirements limit applications to devices that involve only very small mechanical deformations and narrow classes of substrates. Here, ...
