Stray-light measurements at the Observatorio del Teide     

V. Martinez Pillet  B. Ruiz Cobo  M. Vázquez 《Solar physics》1990,125(2):211-218

A new procedure to separate the instrumental and atmospheric components of stray light is presented. It is based on the dependence of the aureole's atmospheric component on the air mass and is applied to measurements taken with the Vacuum Newton Telescope (VNT) at the Observatorio del Teide (Tenerife). The resulting instrumental part is independent of the air mass.The variation of both components with wavelength is also studied. The instrumental component shows no dependence on wavelength, in contrast to the atmospheric one which is greater in the blue than in the red.It is concluded that observations with air masses larger than two will probably be strongly affected by stray light.  相似文献

Sonar cross sections of bodies partially insonified by finite sound beams     

Gaunaurd  G. 《Oceanic Engineering, IEEE Journal of》1985,10(3):213-230

An object that is partially insonified by a collimated sound beam may have a scattering cross section sometimes much larger than when the object is totally covered by the incident beam. We quantitatively study this partial insonification problem here, under the classical method of physical optics. The importance of this study stems from the fact that partial coverage of the target by the beam is the situation most likely to occur in many cases of practical importance. We consider several basic target shapes partially insonified by finite beams. These shapes include the spherical, the infinite and finite cylinder, the flat plate, and the capped sphere. High-frequency approximations of the resulting integrals, obtained by means of the saddle-point method, show the relative importance of the scattering centers located at the beam's specular reflection points, or at the edges of the spots that the beam shines on the scatterers. The physical-optics method is extended to obtain formulas for the bistatic cross sections of partially insonified objects. The results are numerically evaluated and graphically displayed in many pertinent instances and compared to the predictions of approaches, such as the Fresnel-zones method and the Geometrical Theory of Diffraction (GTD). The predictions of the physical-optics method have all the advantages and deficiencies of this method and, with very minor modifications, hold equally well for the partial illumination of objects by beams of electromagnetic radiation.  相似文献   

Slowness—time mapping of near offset seismic reflection data     

A. J. Harding 《Geophysical Journal International》1985,80(2):463-492

Summary. The transformation of a set of seismograms to the delay time-slowness, τ—p, domain is presented as a sequence of Fourier and Bessel transforms, For a horizontally layered medium, this sequence gives an exact cylindrical wave decomposition of the response to a point source; correctly compensating for the phase shifting and geometrical spreading associated with transmission through the Earth. The resultant τ—p map or 'slant stack' contains true amplitude and phase information. The spatial aliasing properties of the transformation, when applied to a dataset, are greatly improved by the use of only outgoing waves in the Bessel transform. This is equivalent to using Hankel functions rather than Bessel functions, and is justified by the absence of incoming waves from most datasets. The WKBJ approximation to the medium response enables predictions to be made about the shape and amplitude variation with slowness of truncation effects. Theoretically the τ—p transformation is reversible, thus the τ—p domain is a suitable one in which to perform filtering operations before seismogram reconstruction.  相似文献   

A critical state model for sands dependent on stress and density     

Y.P. Yao  D.A. Sun  T. Luo 《国际地质力学数值与分析法杂志》2004,28(4):323-337

An elastoplastic model for sands is presented in this paper, which can describe stress–strain behaviour dependent on mean effective stress level and void ratio. The main features of the proposed model are: (a) a new state parameter, which is dependent on the initial void ratio and initial mean stress, is proposed and applied to the yield function in order to predict the plastic deformation for very loose sands; and (b) another new state parameter, which is used to determine the peak strength and describe the critical state behaviour of sands during shearing, is proposed in order to predict simply negative/positive dilatancy and the hardening/softening behaviour of medium or dense sands. In addition, the proposed model can also predict the stress–strain behaviour of sands under three-dimensional stress conditions by using a transformed stress tensor instead of ordinary stress tensor.

Plane of elastic non-resisting tension material under foundation structures     

A. Baratta  I. Corbi 《国际地质力学数值与分析法杂志》2004,28(6):531-542

In the frame of 2D-static problems one approaches the problem of elastic-NRT (not-resisting tension) semi-plane loaded on its limit line. This problem is intended to model the stress situation induced in the soil by a foundation structure. The solution, in terms of activated stress field, is searched for in the class of stress fields satisfying equilibrium and admissibility conditions, by applying an energy approach.

TWO COMPONENTS OF COSMIC-RAY MODULATION     

STORINI  M.  PASE  S.  SÝKORA  J.  PARISI  M. 《Solar physics》1997,172(1-2):317-325

The long-term modulation of galactic cosmic rays is investigated from 1957 up to 1992 analysing the dynamic and the quasi-stationary components, separately. It has been found that the dynamic component is characterized by the presence of two peaks at the maximum phase of each solar activity cycle. We infer that the time interval between the two peaks corresponds to a period (well-related to the polar heliomagnetic reversal) in which somewhat decreased activity occurs for intense and long-lasting solar events. In fact, a contemporary dip in the magnetic energy released from the Sun was observed, in agreement with the suggested double maximum displayed by the basic features of the 11-year solar-activity cycle (Gnevyshev, 1977, and references therein). Moreover, the dynamic component of cosmic-ray modulation often shows a multi-structured profile in both peaks of activity, fairly well-connected with the pattern of the green corona brightness. On the other hand, analysing the quasi-stationary long-term trend of cosmic-ray intensity we pick out a good relationship between periods of enhanced cosmic-ray modulation and the area expansion of coronal intensity levels. The relevance of our results for solar-terrestrial forecasting is underlined.  相似文献   

On the Nonlinear Thermal Evolution of Solar Corona Structures     

C.A. Mendoza-Briceño 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1997,256(1-2):387-392

The thermal evolution of structures is investigated for different values of the size of structure. A simplified cooling function and a constant heating mechanism are assumed. Analytical criteria for thermal instability are obtained. It is found that the response of the thermal structure not only depends on the amplitude of the disturbances, but also on whether the disturbance increases or decreases the initial steady temperature. Additionally, the evolution of the structure is examined numerically by using a time-dependent code under the assumption that the inertia terms are small. In particular, the analytical criteria obtained for thermal instability are verified.  相似文献
