Shear-wave velocity ( ) is an important parameter used for site characterization in geotechnical engineering. However, dispersion curve inversion is challenging for most inversion methods due to its high non-linearity and mix-determined trait. In order to overcome these problems, in this study, a joint inversion strategy is proposed based on the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The ...

in this work, we have calculated the joule-thomson inversion curve of two important associating fluids, namely water and methanol, from the saft equation of state. comparisons with the available experimental data, for water and methanol indicate that this molecular based equation of state gives good prediction of the low temperature branch; but, unfortunately, due to lack of isenthalpic data fo...

An inversion equation takes the Cartesian coordinates of a point on a parametric curve or surface and returns the parameter value(s) of that point. A 2-D curve inversion equation has the form t = f(x, y)/g(x, y). This paper shows that practical insight into inversion can be obtained by studying the geometry of the implicit curves f(x, y) = 0 and g(x, y) = 0. For example, the relationship betwee...

We introduce new modulus scaling techniques for transforming a class of primes into special forms which enables efficient arithmetic. The scaling technique may be used to improve multiplication and inversion in finite fields. We present an efficient inversion algorithm that utilizes the structure of scaled modulus. Our inversion algorithm exhibits superior performance to the Euclidean algorithm...

The measure of the longitudinal, or T, , relaxation time in nuclear magnetic resonance experiments is a common diagnostic tool. There have been several methods proposed for measuring this parameter. Most of these methods measure the recovery of longitudinal magnetization after inversion or saturation. Conventional ( 180”-Ti90”) experiments measure the signal strength for a single temporal point...

We present a method for obtaining atmospheric temperature, pressure, and number density profiles for small bodies through inversion of light curves recorded during stellar occultations. This method avoids the assumption that the atmospheric scale height is small compared with the radius of the body, and it includes the variation of gravitational acceleration with radius. First we derive the int...
