As is well-known, the use of Shannon sampling to interpolate functions with discontinuous jump points leads to the Gibbs’ overshoot. In image processing, it can lead to the problem of artifacts close to edges, known as Gibbs ringring. Its amplitude cannot be reduced by increasing the sample density. Here we consider a generalized Shannon sampling method which allows the use of timevarying sampl...

OBJECTIVE Velocity storage mechanism is a multisensory rotation estimator; it compensates for errors in the information provided by the peripheral vestibular organs by means of an adjustment in the duration of the vestibular signal. The aim of this study was to determine the activity of the velocity storage mechanism in the presence of a labyrinthine disorder, using galvanic vestibular stimulat...

In this paper, a methodology for computation of bounds on MCM and PCB net length and width consistent with timing and noise constraints is proposed. In this method, The initial length and width of each net are used for the AWEbased simulation. For the simulated length and width of the line, the delay and overshoot at receivers are expanded in the form of multi-variable Taylor series of length/w...

The impact-based grain flow sensor is widely used in the combine harvester yield monitor systems to measure the crop yield .but its accuracy wrecked by false signal of excessive natural vibration. A step response experiment was carried to identify the math function of the sensor. Experiment found that the math function of the sensor was a second-order vibration system, its Damping Ratio was 0.0...

We investigate, using simultaneous rheology and confocal microscopy, the time-dependent stress response and transient single-particle dynamics following a step change in shear rate in binary colloidal glasses with large dynamical asymmetry and different mixing ratios. The transition from solid-like response to flow is characterised by a stress overshoot, whose magnitude is linked to transient s...

We obtain a new fluctuation identity for a general Lévy process giving a quintuple law describing the time of first passage, the time of the last maximum before first passage, the overshoot, the undershoot and the undershoot of the last maximum. With the help of this identity, we revisit the results of Klüppelberg, Kyprianou and Maller [Ann. Appl. Probab. 14 (2004) 1766–1801] concerning asympto...

We study the dynamics of a tagged particle in a glassy system under shear. The recently developed integration through transients approach, based on mode coupling theory, is continued to arrive at the equations for the tagged-particle correlators and the mean squared displacements. The equations are solved numerically for a two-dimensional system, including a nonlinear stability analysis of the ...

The effects of various divalent cations in the external solution upon the Ca spike of the barnacle muscle fiber membrane were studied using intracellular recording and polarizing techniques. Analysis of the maximum rate of rise of the spike potential indicates that different species of divalent cations bind the same membrane sites competitively with different dissociation constants. The oversho...
