We present a comparative study of the variation in dielectric relaxation for the additives SiO2, TiO2 and ZrO2 in cobalt ferrite. CoFe2O4 was prepared using microwave hydrothermal system and sintered at 900 °C/30 min using microwave sintering method. Real and imaginary parts of permittivity were measured in the frequency range of 1 MHz to 1.8 GHz for these samples. A shift in the dielectric relaxation towards higher frequencies for doped samples is observed as expected in percolating systems. A non-linear least square fit of the electron oscillator model is used to parameterize absorption in the samples.

Cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) and silica (SiO2) nanopowders have been prepared by the microwave hydrothermal (M-H) method using metal nitrates as precursors of CoFe2O4 and tetraethyl orthosilicate as a precursor of SiO2. The synthesized powders were characterized by XRD and FESEM. The (100-x) (CoFe2O4) + xSiO2 (where x = 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%) composites with different weight percentages have been prepared using ball mill method. The composite samples were sintered at 800°C/60 min using the microwave sintering method and then their structural and morphological studies were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transformation infrared (FTIR) spectra, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The effect of SiO2 content on the magnetic and electrical properties of CoFe2O4/SiO2 nanocomposites has been studied via the magnetic hysteresis loops, complex permeability, permittivity spectra, and DC resistivity measurements. The synthesized nanocomposites with adjustable grain sizes and controllable magnetic properties make the applicability of cobalt ferrite even more versatile.

The observed enhancements in the high frequency microwave processing alumina compared to those in conventional method at the same sintering temperatures have been studied. Some possible mechanisms responsible for the enhancements were investigated and are discussed in this paper. The enhancements could be associated with the increase either in driving force or in apparent activation energy of diffusion. An experiment to estimate the driving force of sintering is not easy to perform because the force depends not only on the density and grain size but also on the electric field in the materials. Therefore, a series of experiments to estimate the apparent activation energy were performed in high frequencies microwave and in conventional sintering method, as well. It was observed that the apparent activation energy in conventional sintering was much lower than that of microwave sintering. These activation energy values suggested that diffusion rate in microwaves sintering was faster, which led to the higher densification.

The aim of present research is to study the influence of sintering temperature on the preparation of nanocrystalline Yttrium Iron garnet (YIG) with improved magnetic properties. The nanocrystalline YIG powders were synthesized using Microwave-Hydrothermal (M-H) method. The synthesized powders were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). The powders were sintered at various temperatures using microwave sintering method. The sintered samples were characterized using XRD. The complex permeability, dielectric constant and loss tangent of sintered YIG ceramic were also measured and discussed in this paper

The possibilities of improving the computational processing of chemical rate measurements, in the frame of linear and non-linear least-square fit methods, are investigated. A simple scaling technique to avoid the distortion of the fitted parameters, inherent in the logarithmic transformation of the rate equation, is tested on several examples, and an iterative discarding method for the selection of accurate data points is recommended.

This paper explores the analogy between a saxophone resonator and a bicylindrical resonator, sometimes called transverse saxophone or cylindrical saxophone. The dimensions of a bicylindrical resonator are optimized numerically to approximate a saxophone impedance. The target is the impedance measured on an usual saxophone. A classical gradient-based non-linear least-square fit function is used. Several cost functions corresponding to distances to the target impedance are assessed, according to their influence on the optimal geometry. Compromises appear between the frequency regions depending on the cost function. It is shown that the chosen cost functions are differentiable and locally convex. The convexity region contains the initial geometrical dimensions obtained by crude approximation of the first resonance frequency of the target. One optimal geometry is submitted to further analysis using descriptors of the impedance. Its deviations from the target saxophone are put into perspective with the discrepancies between the target saxophone and a saxophone from a different manufacture. Descriptors such as harmonicity or impedance peak ratio set the bicylindrical resonator apart from saxophone resonators, despite a good agreement of the resonance frequencies. Therefore, a reed instrument with a bicylindrical resonator could be tuned to produce the same notes as a saxophone, but due to differences in the intrinsic characteristics of the resonator, it should be considered not as a saxophone but as a distinct instrument.

Electron diffraction intensities can be obtained at large scattering angles (sinθ/λ ≥ 2.0), and thus structure information can be collected in regions of reciprocal space that are not accessable with other diffraction methods. LACBED intensities in this range can be utilized for determination of accurate temperature factors or for refinement of coordinates. Such high index reflections can usually be treated kinematically or as a pertubed two-beam case. Application to Y Ba2Cu3O7 shows that a least square refinememt based on integrated intensities can determine temperature factors or coordinates.LACBED patterns taken in the (00l) systematic row show an easily recognisable pattern of narrow bands from reflections in the range 15 < l < 40 (figure 1). Integrated intensities obtained from measured intensity profiles after subtraction of inelastic background (figure 2) were used in the least square fit for determination of temperature factors and refinement of z-coordinates for the Ba- and Cu-atoms.

<p><em>Sangihe-Moluccas region is the most active seismicity in Indonesia. Between 2015 to 2018 there is four M6 class earthquake occurred close to the Sangihe-Moluccas region. These seismic active regions representing active deformation which is recorded on installed GPS for both campaign and continuous station. However, the origin of those frequent earthquakes has not been well understood especially related to GPS-derived secular motion. Therefore, we intend to estimate the secular motion inside and around Sangihe island. On the other hand, we also evaluate the effect of seismicity on GPS sites. Since our GPS data were conducted on yearly basis, we used an empirical global model of surface displacement due to coseismic activity. We calculate the offset that may be contained in the GPS site during its period</em><em>. </em><em>We remove the offset and estimate again the secular motion using linear least square. Hence, in comparison with the secular motion without considering the seismicity, we observe small change but systematically shifting the motion. We concluded the seismicity in the Molucca sea from 2015 to 2018 systematically change the secular motion around Sangihe Island at the sub-mm level. Finally, we obtained the secular motion toward each other between the east and west side within 1 to 5.5 cm/year displacement. </em></p>

The accuracy of the received signal strength-based visible light positioning (VLP) system in indoor applications is constrained by the tilt angles of transmitters (Txs) and receivers as well as multipath reflections. In this paper, for the first time, we show that tilting the Tx can be beneficial in VLP systems considering both line of sight (LoS) and non-line of sight transmission paths. With the Txs oriented towards the center of the receiving plane (i.e., the pointing center F), the received power level is maximized due to the LoS components on F. We also show that the proposed scheme offers a significant accuracy improvement of up to ~66% compared with a typical non-tilted Tx VLP at a dedicated location within a room using a low complex linear least square algorithm with polynomial regression. The effect of tilting the Tx on the lighting uniformity is also investigated and results proved that the uniformity achieved complies with the European Standard EN 12464-1. Furthermore, we show that the accuracy of VLP can be further enhanced with a minimum positioning error of 8 mm by changing the height of F.
