Natural Mechanism

Conventional Distorted Born Iterative Method (DBIM) using single frequency has low resolution and is prone to creating images with high-contrast subjects. We propose a productive frequency combination method to better result in tomographic ultrasound imaging based on the multi-frequency technique. This study uses the natural mechanism of emitting oscillators' frequencies and uses these frequencies for imaging in iterations. We use a fundamental tone (i.e., the starting frequency f0) for the first iteration in DBIM, then consecutively use its overtones for the next ones. The digital simulation scenarios are tested with other multi-frequency approaches to prove our method's feasibility. We performed 57 different simulation scenarios on the use of multi-frequency information for the DBIM method. As a result, the proposed method for the smallest normalization error (RRE = 0.757). The proposed method's imaging time is not significantly longer than the way of using single frequency information.

The lack of the low-frequency information in field data prohibits the time- or frequency-domain waveform inversions from recovering large-scale background velocity models. On the other hand, Laplace-domain waveform inversion is less sensitive to the lack of the low frequencies than conventional inversions. In theory, frequency filtering of the seismic signal in the time domain is equivalent to a constant multiplication of the wavefield in the Laplace domain. Because the constant can be retrieved using the source estimation process, the frequency content of the seismic data does not affect the gradient direction of the Laplace-domain waveform inversion. We obtained inversion results of the frequency-filtered field data acquired in the Gulf of Mexico and two synthetic data sets obtained using a first-derivative Gaussian source wavelet and a single-frequency causal sine function. They demonstrated that Laplace-domain inversion yielded consistent results regardless of the frequency content within the seismic data.

Two estimation methods using a dual GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receiver system are proposed. The dual-frequency combination method combines the carrier phase observations of dual-frequency signals, whereas the single-frequency combination method combines the pseudorange and carrier phase observations of a single-frequency signal, both of which are geometry-free strictly combination and free of the effect of ionospheric delay. Theoretical models are established in the offline phase to describe the relationship between the spectral peak frequency of the combined sequence and the antenna height. A field experiment was conducted recently and the data processing results show that the root mean squared error (RMSE) of the dual-frequency combination method is 5.04 cm with GPS signals and 6.26 cm with BDS signals, which are slightly greater than the RMSE of 4.16 cm produced by the single-frequency combination method of L1 band with GPS signals. The results also demonstrate that the proposed two combination methods and the SNR method achieve similar performance. A dual receiver system enables the better use of GNSS signal carrier phase observations for snow depth estimation, achieving increased data utilization.

Abstract The digitally simulated UHVDC system provides an all-round, full-process, and full-scenario high-fidelity training and teaching platform for the switching operation of the UHVDC system, which can fully meet the training requirements of the operation and maintenance personnel of the converter station. In order to solve the problem of inaccurate evaluation due to the existence of multiple operation procedures for an operation target, an improved digital simulation system based on multiple adaptive evaluation algorithms was designed: the teacher uses a modular combination method to generate a standard operating procedure as the main line, and then uses the trainee’s simulated operating procedure as a supplement to jointly form a standard answer to adapt to the different operating procedures of the same operating task for the trainees. Based on this system, it can solve the problem of inaccurate evaluation caused by millions of answers in the simulation operation evaluation process. It provides fast, efficient and accurate evaluation results for the digital simulated UHVDC system switching operation procedure.

We have designed and built an electronic device which compares the resistance of a defined area of vacuum evaporated material with a variable resistor. When the two resistances are matched, the device automatically disconnects the primary side of the substrate transformer and stops further evaporation.This approach to controlled evaporation in conjunction with the modified guns and evaporation source permits reliably reproducible multiple Pt shadow films from a single Pt wrapped carbon point source. The reproducibility from consecutive C point sources is also reliable. Furthermore, the device we have developed permits us to select a predetermined resistance so that low contrast high-resolution shadows, heavy high contrast shadows, or any grade in between can be selected at will. The reproducibility and quality of results are demonstrated in Figures 1-4 which represent evaporations at various settings of the variable resistor.

A classic preparation of central nervous system tissue (CNS) is the Golgi procedure popularized by Cajal. The method is partially specific as only a few cells are impregnated with silver chromate usualy after osmium post fixation. Samples are observable by light (LM) or electron microscopy (EM). However, the impregnation is often so dense that structures are masked in EM, and the osmium background may be undesirable in LM. Gold toning is used for a subtle but high contrast EM preparation, and osmium can be omitted for LM. We are investigating these preparations as part of a study to develop correlative LM and EM (particularly HVEM) methodologies in neurobiology. Confocal light microscopy is particularly useful as the impregnated cells have extensive three-dimensional structure in tissue samples from one to several hundred micrometers thick. Boyde has observed similar preparations in the tandem scanning reflected light microscope (TSRLM).

A new microscope for the study of life science specimen has been developed. Special attention has been given to the problems of unstained samples, cryo-specimens and x-ray analysis at low concentrations.A new objective lens with a Cs of 6.2 mm and a focal length of 5.9 mm for high-contrast imaging has been developed. The contrast of a TWIN lens (f = 2.8 mm, Cs = 2 mm) and the BioTWTN are compared at the level of mean and SD of slow scan CCD images. Figure 1a shows 500 +/- 150 and Fig. 1b only 500 +/- 40 counts/pixel. The contrast-forming mechanism for amplitude contrast is dependent on the wavelength, the objective aperture and the focal length. For similar image conditions (same voltage, same objective aperture) the BioTWIN shows more than double the contrast of the TWIN lens. For phasecontrast specimens (like thin frozen-hydrated films) the contrast at Scherzer focus is approximately proportional to the √ Cs.
