We present the first measurements of the rototranslational absorption spectrum of the CH4–Ar gaseous system in the far infrared region 40–600 cm−1. Measurements were made at 296, 243, and 195 K at densities as low as possible; the binary absorption spectrum of the CH4–Ar pair was then obtained. We performed a line-shape analysis of these spectra following the procedure previously introduced for pure methane. We find that the experimental data can be described at high frequencies by using ab initio values of the octopole and hexadecapole multipole moments and anisotropic overlap intensities very close to those used for pure methane. At low frequencies, the computed spectrum is significantly lower than the experimental data at any temperature. We thus include in our analysis a low-frequency spectral contribution associated with the isotropic overlap induction mechanism. Good fits of the experimental data are then obtain at each temperature over all the spectral range.

The rototranslational absorption spectrum of gaseous N2 is analyzed, considering quadrupolar and hexadecapolar induction mechanisms. The available experimental data are accounted for by using a line-shape analysis in which empirical profiles describe the single-line translational profiles. We thus derive the simple procedure that allows one to predict the N2 spectrum at any temperature. On the basis of the results obtained for the pure gas, we also propose a procedure to compute the far-infrared spectrum of the N2–Ar gaseous mixture. The good agreement between computed and experimental N2–Ar data indicates that it is possible to predict the far-infrared absorption induced by N2 on the isotropic polarizability of any interacting partner.

This paper considers an anytime strategy to implement controllers that react to changing computational resources. The anytime controllers developed in this paper are suitable for cases when the time scale of switching is in the order of the task execution time, that is, on the time scale found commonly with sporadically missed deadlines. This paper extends the prior work by developing frequency-weighted anytime controllers. The selection of the weighting function is driven by the expectation of the situations that would require anytime operation. For example, if the anytime operation is due to occasional and isolated missed deadlines, then the weighting on high frequencies should be larger than that for low frequencies. Low frequency components will have a smaller change over one sample time, so failing to update these components for one sample period will have less effect than with the high frequency components. An example will be included that applies the anytime control strategy to a model of a DC motor with deadzone and saturation nonlinearities.

Far Infrared Spectra

The vibrational absorption spectra of some substituted benzenes have been measured in the range 50 to 450 cm -1 . The compounds were measured as liquids, in solutions, as crystalline solidsat low temperature, and in polyethylene matrices. The extension of the infrared spectrum to very low frequencies has made it possible to determine new values for many fundamental vibrations. An assignment of all the vibrational frequencies in the low-frequency range has been made, from the infrared and Raman data, for p -dihalogeno-benzenes, p -halogenotoluenes, p -halogeno-nitrobenzenes, and for some mono-substituted benzenes. Some measurements have been made on the marked variation of intensity of the lowest frequency bending mode of p -dihalogeno-benzenes.

To investigate the impact of installation on jet noise from modern high-bypass-ratio turbofan engines, a model-scale noise experiment with a jet propulsion system and a fuselage model in scale was conducted in the anechoic wind tunnel of ONERA, CEPRA 19. Two area ratios (an area of the secondary nozzle over an area of the primary nozzle), 5 and 7, and various airframe configurations such as wing positions relative to the tip of the engine nacelle and flap angles, were considered. Based on the analysis of experimental data, an empirical model for the prediction of engine installation noise was proposed. The model comprises two components: one is the interaction be-tween the jet and the pressure side of the wing, and the other is the interaction between the jet and the flap tip. The interaction between the jet and the pressure side of the wing contributes to the noise at the low frequencies (≤ 1.5 kHz), and the interaction between the jet and the flap tip con-tributes to the noise at the high frequencies. The proposed model showed a good agreement with the experimental data.

Damping Behavior

Studies of high-temperature alloys in the Ti-Sn system based on the intermetallic compound Ti3Sn have identified alloys that damp strongly both at low frequencies (0.1 to 10 Hz) and high frequencies (5 to 20 MHz). The low frequency damping behavior shows loss factors as high as 0.04 at room temperature and Young's moduli that rise with temperature from 40 °C to 100 °C for two alloys. Although the basic mechanism or mechanisms of energy dissipation are presently unknown, the alloys are notable for unusual shapes of microhardness indentations. The deformations imply that large reversible strains can occur at temperatures from 23 °C to 1150 °C.

The presence of pores and cracks in rocks causes the fluid-saturated wave velocities in rocks to be dependent on frequency. New measurements of the bulk modulus at low frequencies (0.02–0.1 Hz) were obtained in the laboratory using oscillation tests carried out on two hydrostatically stressed Fontainebleau sandstone samples, in conjunction with ultrasonic velocities and static measurements, under a range of differential pressures (10–95 MPa), and with three different pore fluids (argon, glycerin, and water). For the 13% and 4% porosity samples, under glycerin- and water-saturated conditions, the low-frequency bulk modulus at 0.02 Hz matched well the low-frequency and ultrasonic dry bulk modulus. The glycerin- and water-saturated samples were much more compliant at low frequencies than at high frequencies. The measured bulk moduli of the tested rocks at low frequencies (0.02–0.1 Hz) were much lower than the values predicted by the Gassmann equation. The frequency dispersion of the P and S velocities was much higher at low differential pressures than at high pressures, due to the presence of open cracks at low differential pressures.

Theoretical Predictions

We performed laboratory experiments to evaluate theoretical models of borehole. Stoneley wave propagation in permeable materials. A Berea sandstone and synthetic samples made of cemented glass beads were saturated with silicone oils. We measured both velocity and attenuation over a frequency band from 10 kHz to 90 kHz. Our theoretical modeling incorporated Biot theory and Deresiewicz‐Skalak boundary conditions into a cylindrical geometry and included frequency‐dependent permeability. By varying the viscosity of the saturating pore fluid, we were able to study both low‐frequency and high‐frequency regions of Biot theory, as well as the intermediate transition zone. In both low‐frequency and high‐frequency regions of the theory, we obtained excellent agreement between experimental observations and theoretical predictions. Velocity and attenuation (1/Q) are frequency‐dependent, especially at low frequencies. Also at low frequencies, velocity decreases and attenuation increases with increasing fluid mobility (permeability/viscosity). More complicated behavior is observed at high frequencies. These results support recent observations from the oil field suggesting that Stoneley wave velocity and attenuation may be indicative of formation permeability.

Damage Indices

Piezoelectric transducers are used in a wide variety of applications, including damage detection in structural health monitoring (SHM) applications. Among the various methods for detecting structural damage, the electromechanical impedance (EMI) method is one of the most investigated in recent years. In this method, the transducer is typically excited with low frequency signals up to 500 kHz. However, recent studies have indicated the use of higher frequencies, usually above 1 MHz, for the detection of some types of damage and the monitoring of some structures’ characteristics that are not possible at low frequencies. Therefore, this study investigates the performance of low-cost piezoelectric diaphragms excited with high frequency signals for SHM applications based on the EMI method. Piezoelectric diaphragms have recently been reported in the literature as alternative transducers for the EMI method and, therefore, investigating the performance of these transducers at high frequencies is a relevant subject. Experimental tests were carried out with piezoelectric diaphragms attached to two aluminum bars, obtaining the impedance signatures from diaphragms excited with low and high frequency signals. The analysis was performed using the real part of the impedance signatures and two basic damage indices, one based on the Euclidean norm and the other on the correlation coefficient. The experimental results indicate that piezoelectric diaphragms are usable for the detection of structural damage at high frequencies, although the sensitivity decreases.

Microperforated Panels

Microperforated panels (MPPs) are recognized as suitable absorbers for noise control applications demanding special clean and health requirements.While it is relatively easy to design single-layer MPPs for sound absorption in one-to-two octave bands at medium-high frequencies, the performance for low frequencies (below 600 Hz) leads to a rather narrow-band absorption, similar to that of a Helmholtz resonator. However, multiple-layer MPPs can be designed as sound absorbers that yield low-frequency absorption in a wide frequency band. Recently, multiple-cavity perforated panels have been proposed to improve the performance of MPPs in the low-frequency range. In this article, the capability of multiple-layer and multiple-cavity MPPs to provide sound absorption at low frequencies is analyzed.

Abstract Stall in a compressor or a fan is often associated with pre-stall waves, that could act as precursors. The present study aims to understand in detail the pre-stall waves leading to instabilities in a low aspect ratio, low hub-tip ratio contra-rotating axial fan. Apart from a clean inflow condition, experiments on the contra-rotating fan are also carried out for two radial distortion conditions, namely, hub-radial and tip-radial distortions, and three circumferential distortion conditions, namely, simple-circumferential, hub-complex-circumferential and tip-complex-circumferential distortions. The results primarily concluded that operating rotor-2 at a speed higher than the design speed could possibly suppress the pre-stall disturbances. Towards the fully developed stall, the waves that are associated with low frequencies speed up and thus these waves become intermediate frequency waves. The fluid phenomena that trigger the stall are associated with high frequencies and these subsequently stretch to low frequencies at the onset of fully developed stall. The low-frequency waves and high frequency waves compromise to reach an intermediate frequency range during the fully developed stall. Further, it is observed that disturbances associated with low frequencies as well as high frequencies co-exist during the fully developed stall regime. There is also a region in the frequency spectra where no disturbances are excited and this region appears to be a “no excitation zone”. This paper thus concludes that there possibly exists a mechanism through which the energy is transferred between different frequencies during the pre-stall and fully developed stall regimes.
