ABSTRACTIn this paper we present contact-free measurement techniques which are important for the evaluation of heterojunctions of interest for optical as well as high-speed devices. The techniques are the microwave-detection of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations, photoluminescence-detected magneto-oscillations, and optically detected cyclotron resonance using microwaves (ODCR) as well as far-infrared lasers (FIR-ODCR). The techniques are illustrated by several examples, and the possibilities to determine 2D carrier concentrations, effective masses, and scattering times in the heterojunction structures are discussed.

This chapter reviews traditional and new zooplankton sampling techniques, sample preservation, and sample analysis, and provides the sources where in-depth discussion of these topics is addressed. The net systems that have been developed over the past 100+ years, many of which are still in use today, can be categorized into eight groups: non-opening/closing nets, simple opening/closing nets, high-speed samplers, neuston samplers, planktobenthos plankton nets, closing cod-end samplers, multiple net systems, and moored plankton collection systems. Methods of sample preservation include preservation for sample enumeration and taxonomic morphological analysis, and preservation of samples for genetic analysis. Methods of analysis of zooplankton samples include determination of biomass, taxonomic composition, and size by traditional methods; and genetic analysis of zooplankton samples.

Gas Solubilities

Efficient and environmentally responsible use of resources requires the development and optimization of gas separation processes. A promising approach is the use of liquids that are designed for specific tasks, e.g., the capture of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases. This requires an accurate determination of gas solubilities for a broad range of temperatures and pressures. However, state of the art measurement techniques are often very time consuming or exhibit other pitfalls that prevent their use as efficient screening tools. Here, we show that the application of Raman spectroscopy through a compact measuring system can simplify data acquisition for the determination of gas solubilities in liquids. To demonstrate that this approach is expedient, we determined gas solubilities of carbon dioxide in water for three isotherms T = (288.15, 293.15, 298.15) K over a pressure range from p = (0.5–5) MPa and in three imidazolium-based ionic liquids for one isotherm T = 298.15 K at pressures from p = (0.1–5) MPa. When compared to data in the literature, all results are within the reported uncertainties of the measurement techniques involved. The developed analysis method eliminates the need for a lengthy volume or mass calibration of the sample prior to the measurements and, therefore, allows for fast screening of samples, which can help to advance gas separation processes in scientific and industrial applications.

Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes

Determination of high-speed crafts’ hydrodynamic coefficients will help to analyze the dynamics of these kinds of vessels and the factors affecting their dynamic stabilities. Also, it can be useful and effective in controlling the vessel instabilities. The main purpose of this study is to determine the coefficients of longitudinal motions of a planing catamaran with and without a hydrofoil using Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes method to evaluate the foil effects on them. Determination of hydrodynamic coefficients by experimental approach is costly and requires meticulous laboratory equipment; therefore, utilizing the numerical methods and developing a virtual laboratory seem highly efficient. In this study, the numerical results for hydrodynamic coefficients of a high-speed craft are verified against Troesch’s experimental results. In the following, after determination of hydrodynamic coefficients of a planing catamaran with and without foil, the foil effects on its hydrodynamic coefficients are evaluated. The results indicate that most of the coefficients are frequency-independent especially at high frequencies.

Wiener Filters

The normal equations for the discrete Wiener filter are conventionally solved with Levinson’s algorithm. The resultant solutions are exact except for numerical roundoff. In many instances, approximate rather than exact solutions satisfy seismologists’ requirements. The so‐called “gradient” or “steepest descent” iteration techniques can be used to produce approximate filters at computing speeds significantly higher than those achievable with Levinson’s method. Moreover, gradient schemes are well suited for implementation on a digital computer provided with a floating‐point array processor (i.e., a high‐speed peripheral device designed to carry out a specific set of multiply‐and‐add operations). Levinson’s method (1947) cannot be programmed efficiently for such special‐purpose hardware, and this consideration renders the use of gradient schemes even more attractive. It is, of course, advisable to utilize a gradient algorithm which generally provides rapid convergence to the true solution. The “conjugate‐gradient” method of Hestenes (1956) is one of a family of algorithms having this property. Experimental calculations performed with real seismic data indicate that adequate filter approximations are obtainable at a fraction of the computer cost required for use of Levinson’s algorithm.
