Abstract We study a simple magnetic system composed of periodically modulated magnetic dipoles with an easy axis. Upon adjusting the modulation amplitude alone, chains and two-dimensional stacked chains exhibit a rich magnon spectrum where frequency gaps and magnon speeds are easily manipulable. The blend of anisotropy due to dipolar interactions between magnets and geometrical modulation induces a magnetic phase with fractional Zak number in infinite chains and end states in open one-dimensional systems. In two dimensions it gives rise to topological modes at the edges of stripes. Tuning the amplitude in two-dimensional lattices causes a band touching, which triggers the exchange of the Chern numbers of the volume bands and switches the sign of the thermal conductivity.

The roughness exponent of surfaces obtained by dispersing silica spheres into a quasi-two-dimensional cell is examined. The cell consists of two glass plates separated by a gap, which is comparable in size to the diameter of the beads. Previous work has shown that the quasi-one-dimensional surfaces formed have two roughness exponents in two length scales, which have a crossover length about 1 cm. We have studied the effect of changing the gap between the plates to a limit of about twice the diameter of the beads. If the conventional scaling analysis is performed, the roughness exponent is found to be robust against changes in the gap between the plates; however, the possibility that scaling does not hold should be taken seriously.

We present the results of a comparative theoretical analysis of the electron beam bunching in a single-stage klystron amplifier using analytical models, a one-dimensional disk program, and a two-dimensional program. Data on the influence of various one-dimensional and two-dimensional nonlinear effects on the efficiency of electron beam bunching at different values of the space charge parameter and the modulation amplitude are presented. The limits of applicability of analytical and one-dimensional numerical models for electron beam bunching analysis in high-power klystron amplifiers are found.

A rugged electro-mechanical tracking apparatus of simple, low-cost construction is described. The apparatus can be used for one-dimensional tracking by connecting only the longitudinal motor, thus forcing the target to move back and forth in either simple sinusoidal motion or according to the sum of two or three sinusoids. The relative phases of the three sinusoids can be rapidly altered, as can the amplitudes (within limits) of each of the sinusoids. The frequency of the sinusoids can be changed either independently or conjointly. By also connecting the cross-feed motor, an essentially unpredictable target path in two dimensions is obtained, and this path can be rapidly altered by changing cams, and/or frequency, amplitude, and phase of the sinusoids. Movement of the cursor is by low, constant torque lathe-type controls. The distance the cursor moves per each rotation of the controls, can be altered for either or both of the controls. A continuous error signal is generated which is directly proportional to the distance the cursor is off target in any direction.

The methodology of the solution to the inverse fractal problem with the wavelet transform1,2 is extended to two-dimensional self-affine functions. Similar to the one-dimensional case, the two-dimensional wavelet maxima bifurcation representation used is derived from the continuous wavelet decomposition. It possesses translational and scale invariance necessary to reveal the invariance of the self-affine fractal. As many fractals are naturally defined on two-dimensions, this extension constitutes an important step towards solving the related inverse fractal problem for a variety of fractal types.

Two dimensional arrival time data was obtained for the propagation of ultrasound across the breasts of 7 female volunteers. These profiles were extracted through the use of cross-correlation measurements and a simulated annealing process that maintained phase closure while aligning the data. The phase aberration measured in two dimensions had a larger magnitude than previously reported phase aberration measured in one dimension in the breast A point spread function generation computer program was used to demonstrate the system response degrading effects of the measured phase aberration and the usefulness of current one dimensional phase aberration correction techniques. The results indicate that two dimensional correction algorithms are necessary to restore the system performance losses due to phase aberration.

Abstract Separation of the amino acids in urine by use of thin-layer chromatography (TLC) has hitherto required that the specimen be first desalted and then chromatographed in two dimensions with at least two pairs of developing solvent systems. We wished to simplify both steps. The customary method of desalting on a column is replaced by desalting on a plate that supports a strongly acid cation-exchanger and a cellulose layer. This method, originally developed for one-dimensional TLC, is used here for two-dimensional TLC. Urine is applied to the ion-exchange layer and strong acids and neutral substances are removed with water. The amino acids are then chromatographed into the cellulose layer, and are separated there two dimensionally with a newly devised pair of developing solutions. This pair of solvents separates nearly all of the amino acids in urine.

Abstract A linear stability analysis is performed on two simplified models representing a one-dimensional flame between oxidizer and fuel reservoirs and a two-dimensional “edge-flame” between the same reservoirs but above a cold, inert wall. Comparison of the eigenvalue spectra for both models is performed to discern the validity of extending the results from the one-dimensional problem to the two-dimensional problem. Of primary interest is the influence on flame stability of thermal-diffusive imbalances, i.e. non-unity Lewis numbers. Flame oscillations are observed when Le > 1, and cellular flames are witnessed when Le < 1. It is found that when Le > 1 the characteristics of flame behavior are consistent between the two models. Furthermore, when Le < 1, the models are found to be in good agreement with respect to the magnitude of the critical wave numbers. Results from the coarse mesh analysis of the two-dimensional system are presented and compared to the one-dimensional eigenvalue spectra. Additionally, an examination of low reactant convection is undertaken. It is concluded that for low flow rates the behavior in one and two dimensions are similar qualitatively and quantitatively.

The objective of this study is to extend the application of the spray-coated tactile sensor, ScoTacS, which is being developed by the authors and can be constructed simply by “coating” with a spray gun, from one dimension to two dimensions, and further to configure it into various shapes such as a ring. This sensor is constructed by coating three layers-conductive, piezoelectric, and resistive films-in sequence. It is based on a unique principle by which the contact position is detected from the delay time, i.e., the time difference between the arrivals of peaks in the output signals. As the delay time varies with the contact position, it can be used to estimate the contact position. In this paper, after analyzing the characteristics of one-dimensional sensors, such as linear and ring sensors, we present the equivalent circuit models and experimental results of a two-dimensional sensor fully coated on a cylinder.

Peridynamics is a nonlocal continuum mechanics theory where its governing equation has an integro-differential form. This paper specifically uses bond-based peridynamics. Typically, peridynamic problems are solved via numerical means, and analytical solutions are not as common. This paper analytically evaluates peristatics, the static version of peridynamics, for a finite one-dimensional rod as well as a special case for two dimensions. A numerical method is also implemented to confirm the analytical results.

We study the behavior of the eigenvalues of the one and two dimensions ofq-deformed Dirac oscillator. The eigensolutions have been obtained by using a method based on theq-deformed creation and annihilation operators in both dimensions. For a two-dimensional case, we have used the complex formalism which reduced the problem to a problem of one-dimensional case. The influence of theq-numbers on the eigenvalues has been well analyzed. Also, the connection between theq-oscillator and a quantum optics is well established. Finally, for very small deformationη, we (i) showed the existence of well-knownq-deformed version of Zitterbewegung in relativistic quantum dynamics and (ii) calculated the partition function and all thermal quantities such as the free energy, total energy, entropy, and specific heat. The extension to the case of Graphene has been discussed only in the case of a pure phase (q=eiη).
