Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a very effective tool for detecting and identifying objects below the ground surface.  based on  the propagation and reflection of high-frequency electromagnetic waves. The GPR reflection can be affected by many things like the type of objects orientation, their shapes ..ect. The purpose of this paper is to  study by simulation the effect of objects orientation in two different mediums (dry and wet sand) on the GPR signal reflection using Reflexw software which is based on a numerical method known as finite difference in time domain (FDTD).  The simulations that have been realized included a conductor  and dielectric objects. The results obtained have led us to find that the propagation path, the reflection strength and the signal form change with the change of object orientation and nature. To confirm the validity of the results, we compared them with experimental results previously published by researchers under the same conditions.

Sound propagation in the Blume Capel model with quenched diluted single-ion anisotropy is investigated. The sound dispersion relation and an expression for the ultrasonic attenuation are derived with the aid of the method of thermodynamics of irreversible processes. A frequency-dependent dispersion minimum that is shifted to lower temperatures with rising frequency is observed in the ordered region. The thermal and sound frequency (ω) dependencies of the sound attenuation and effect of the Onsager rate coefficient are studied in low- and high-frequency regimes. The results showed that ωτ≪1 and ωτ≫1 are the conditions that describe low- and high-frequency regimes, where τ is the single relaxation time diverging in the vicinity of the critical temperature. In addition, assuming a linear coupling of sound wave with the order parameter fluctuations in the system and ε as the temperature distance from the critical point, we found that the sound attenuation follows the power laws α(ω,ε)~ω2ε-1 and α(ω,ε)~ω0ε1 in the low- and high-frequency regions, while ε→0. Finally, a comparison of the findings of this study with previous theoretical and experimental studies is presented and it is shown that a good agreement is found with our results.

High-frequency plane sound waves in ideal gases with internal dissipation are discussed. Particular applications to dissociating diatomic gases and gases displaying vibrational relaxation are considered. A criterion in the form of an inequality is derived for the validity of the high-frequency approximation and an asymptotic analysis is developed.

This paper proposed a new image enhancement algorithm based on edge sharpening of wavelet coefficients for stereoscopic images. Our scheme uses the multi-scale characteristic of wavelet transform, decomposes the original image into low frequency approximation sub-graph and several high frequency direction. Under the multi-scale, the low frequency approximation sub-graph is processed by edge sharpening method. Then the low frequency sub-graph decomposes in multi-scale again. At last, the low frequency approximation graph after four layers decompose sharpening and the high frequency approximation of the decomposed sub-graph will be refactored to get the new image. Experimental results show that whether PSNR or visual effect, or the subjective assessment of the DMOS value, the proposed method has better enhanced performance than the conventional edge sharpening and wavelet transform. And it has good image edge enhancement, details protection. Meanwhile, the proposed algorithm has the same computational complexity with wavelet transform.
