In this paper we employ the periodic unfolding method for simulating the electromagnetic field in a composite material exhibiting heterogeneous microstructures which are described by spatially periodic parameters. We consider cell problems to calculate the effective parameters for a Debye dielectric medium in the cases of circular and square microstructures in two dimensions. We assume that the...

Present work demonstrates a detail simulation results on enhanced generation of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) field condition in a periodically varying height metal nanopillars. This simulation work has been carried out using COMSOL Multiphysics software. LSPR field condition study in metal nanostructure is important for different fields of applications which include chemical and b...

A novel technique called noncausal linear periodically time-varying (LPTV) scaling was introduced recently, and it was shown that even static noncausal LPTV scaling has an ability of inducing frequency-dependent scaling if it is interpreted in the context of the conventional scaling approach. Motivated by this preceding study of ours, this paper studies to exploit this attractive property and d...

Delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) are characterized by a possible absence of end-to-end communication routes at any instant. Still, connectivity can generally be established over time and space. The optimality of a temporal path (journey) in this context can be defined in several terms, including topological (e.g. shortest in hops) and temporal (e.g. fastest, foremost). The combinatorial problem o...

We set out to develop a framework for the analysis and synthesis of discrete-time periodically time-varying systems. Adopting a behavioral approach, we define the concept of periodicity in terms of the trajectories of the system. We subsequently use this framework to investigate several basic notions, such as controllability, on the level of trajectories and also present several techniques for ...

in order to study the effects of post – anthesis heat stress on source of six wheat genotypes (vee/nac, chamran, s79-10, dez, fong and kaveer), two separate field experiments were conducted as delayed as against optimum sowing dates in ahvaz coditions. plants in delayed sowing date experienced heat stress at post-anthesis growth stage. as study of grain yield indicated that the highest and the ...

Simultaneous stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and second harmonic generation (SHG) are demonstrated in periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN). Using a simple single-pass geometry, conversion efficiencies of up to 12% and 19% were observed for the SRS and SHG processes respectively. By changing the PPLN period interacting with the photonic crystal fibre based pump source and varying the PPLN...

Characterization of back surface roughness is investigated for specimens exhibiting corrosion and for prepared samples with milled channels of varying geometry. An area heating source is used initially to provide one-dimensional heating of the specimen which allows plate thinning, disbanding, or presence of corrosion to be rapidly detected. A focused heating source is then used to characterize ...
