Abstract:

This paper studies the harmonic distortion (or non-linearity) of vertically stacked SOI nanosheets with different fin widths and channel lengths. The total harmonic distortion and third order harmonic distortion are used as figures of merit in this work. The four approaches applied verifies the correlation between the harmonic distortions and the variety of transistor’s dimensions available for analysis.

Abstract:

The effects of inlet distortion on the inducer stall in a centrifugal compressor are investigated. Cases of both radial and circumferential distortion are investigated. It is shown that the rotating stall onset is amplified by radial distortions, and restrained by circumferential distortions. These results are compared with calculations based on the small disturbance theory. The authors find that the stall onset is governed by the characteristic parameters related to the lower flow rate region for radial distortions, but affected by those of the higher flow rate region for circumferential dist

Abstract:

Aeroengine intakes containing S-shaped diffusers produce different types of inlet swirl distortions and essentially a combination of a twin swirl and a bulk swirl. The main object of this investigation was to assess the influence of inlet swirl distortions on the performance of a transonic two-stage axial compressor installed in a turbo jet bypass engine Larzac 04. A typical inlet swirl distortion was simulated by a delta-wing in front of the engine. An experimental method was investigated to measure the performance map of the installed low-pressure compressor for different engine operating li

This paper studies the harmonic performance of grid-connected PV system under various penetration levels. The system under study was modelled in MATLAB/Simulink environment. Current and voltage distortions were studied in terms of the percentage of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) under different PV penetration scenarios. The results showed that the Grid-Connected PV generates a different level of harmonics distortion depending on the PV penetration level that was injected to the grid.

Abstract:

Radio frequency (RF) circuit elements that are traditionally considered to be linear frequently exhibit nonlinear properties that affect the intended operation of many other RF systems. Devices such as RF connectors, antennas, attenuators, resistors, and dissimilar metal junctions generate nonlinear distortion that degrades primary RF system performance. The communications industry is greatly affected by these unintended and unexpected nonlinear distortions. The high transmit power and tight channel spacing of the communication channel makes communications very susceptible to nonlinear distort

Abstract:

Inlet flow non-uniformity, commonly known as inflow distortion, has been a long-standing problem in the history of gas turbine engines. Distortion can be present in the form of total pressure, total temperature or inflow incidence or any combinations of these. The search for better and robust performance requires engines that can sustain a large amount of inlet distortion without considerable loss in the thrust. In the present paper, the effect of total pressure distortion on a single-stage compressor and low bypass ratio fans are studied. Distortion near hub and tip in the form of step radial

In the past, designers relied greatly on simplified geophone models to describe the physical quantities of a geophone. Several iterations of fine tuning the geophone variables were required to achieve a desired geophone characteristic.

An easier, faster, and more accurate method of predicting geophone parameters is described and the method of computer‐aided geophone design is outlined.

The concept of the gamma of a financed return as the highest level of stress that a return distribution can withstand is introduced. Stress is measured by positive expectation under a concave distortion of the return distribution accessed. Four distortions introduced in Cherny and Madan (2008) are employed in studying the distribution of returns available in the hedge fund universe. It is shown that the skewness, peakedness and tailweightedness of the standardized investment return significantly affects the Sharpe ratios required to reach a target gamma level.

In the second method, a cumulative measure of the overall distortion is computed by summing the inter-frame propagation impact to all frames affected by a slice loss.

Abstract:

In decision making under risk (DMR) participants’ choices are based on probability values systematically different from those that are objectively correct. Similar systematic distortions are found in tasks involving relative frequency judgments (JRF). These distortions limit performance in a wide variety of tasks and an evident question is, Why do we systematically fail in our use of probability and relative frequency information? We propose a bounded log-odds model (BLO) of probability and relative frequency distortion based on three assumptions: 1) log-odds: probability and relative frequenc

Abstract:

The optical joint transform correlator (JTC) has been used in target real-time recognition, but the anti-distortion performance has always been the difficult problem for recognition system, which limits its further development and application. In this paper the principle and experimental system of JTC are introduced. The effect of target distortion is analyzed and the optimization method is proposed. The synthetic discriminate function and the power subtraction are applied to process the joint power spectrum and eliminate zero-order correlation peak. The result shows that the optimization meth

Abstract:

Abstract When creating image quality assessment metric (IQA) no confirmation all distortion types are available. Non-specific distortion blind/no-reference (NR) IQA algorithms mostly need prior knowledge about anticipated distortions. This paper introduce a generic and distortion unaware (DU) approach for IQA with No Reference (NR). The approach uses three different measuring features which are initiated from the gist of natural scenes (NS) using Log-derivatives of the parameters; a general Gaussian distribution model, two sharpness functions, and Weibull distribution.

Abstract:

This study compares the performance of five popular equal-area projections supported by Free and Open Source Software for Geo-spatial (FOSS4G)—Sinusoidal, Mollweide, Hammer, Eckert IV and Homolosine. A set of 21,872 discrete distortion vindicatrices were positioned on the ellipsoid surface, centred on the cells of a Snyder icosahedral equal-area grid. These indicatrices were projected on the plane and the resulting angular and distance distortions computed, all using FOSS4G. The Homolosine is the only projection that manages to minimise angular and distance distortions simultaneously. It yield

Abstract:

A novel approach to automatic speaker identification (ASI) is presented. Most of the present automatic speaker identification systems based on neural networks have no definite mechanisms to compensate for time distortions due to elocution. Such models have less precise information about the intraspeaker measure. The new combined approach uses both distortion-based and discriminant-based methods. The distortion-based and discriminant-based methods are dynamic time warping (DTW) and artificial neural network (ANN) respectively. This paper compares this new classifier with a pure neural net class

Abstract:

TA15 airplane wall panels are used widely in aircraft manufacture, which consist of some reinforced ribs and a motherboard. Therefore, welding sequences of different reinforced ribs directly determine distortion and residual stress distributions of welding wall panels, and then affect the structure service performance. Therefore, it is important to get the optimistic sequence during manufacture processing of welding wall panels. This paper analyses and predicts regularities of distributions of residual distortion and stress under four kinds of different welding sequence namely, order welding s

Abstract:

An distortion aberration free optical system forms an orthoscopic image mean that is similar to original object, undeformed. Naturally imply that most optical systems are designed so that the image distortion is minimal, not to cause inconvenience to the user about either the object appearance – when it comes to a camera or camcorder, or the deformities that may cause measurement errors – when it comes to optical measurement and control equipment. However there are situations when distortion is desired to improve some performances of the observation optical system. In this article we present h

Abstract:

In this work, we present a convolutional neural network (CNN) named CGFA-CNN for blind image quality assessment (BIQA). A unique two-stage strategy is utilized which firstly identifies the distortion type in an image using Sub-Network I and then quantifies this distortion using Sub-Network II. Different from most deep neural networks, we extract hierarchical features as descriptors to enhance the image representation and design a feature aggregation layer in an end-to-end training manner applying Fisher encoding to visual vocabularies modeled by Gaussian mixture models (GMMs).

Abstract:

An attempt has been made to investigate the influence of various weld parameters on the dynamic behavior of rotating bowl and thereby optimizing those parameters for the improved performance of the same. The welding input parameters play a significant role in the final distortions, which in turn cause the unbalanced mass and eccentricity, thus affecting the dynamic stability of rotor. In this regard, a synergistic approach is followed involving both finite element modeling using a coupled thermo-mechanical analysis and experimental work for estimating the induced distortion during welding.
