The transfer function method is a common method for establishing a traveling wave field in a sound tube to measure the reflection and transmission coefficient of underwater material. The voltage applied to the secondary sound source can be calculated in accordance with the transfer matrix between the sound sources and hydrophones, then a traveling wave field can be established in the sound tube. However, the transfer function must be remeasured when the measurement frequency needs to be changed. A checking procedure of the traveling wave field in the sound tube is essential before measuring underwater acoustic material. If it is not an accurate traveling wave field, the secondary sound source signal should be corrected until the traveling wave field meets the requirements. To address these problems, an adaptive control method for generating plane traveling waves is proposed. The phase difference of sound pressures measured using the two hydrophones between the secondary sound source and the sample is used as the objective function in the adaptive algorithm, and the amplitude and phase of the secondary sound source can be obtained using the adaptive control system in the frequency domain. When a traveling wave field is formed, the reflection and transmission coefficient of the sample can be measured at the same time. With this method, the procedure of testing the traveling wave field is omitted. If the state of the primary sound source changes, the signal form of the secondary sound source can be changed immediately. Therefore, the efficiency of material measurement is improved. Theoretically, this method can obtain the most matching signal form of the secondary sound source, such that the accuracy of this method is remarkably high. Simulation and experimental results in this paper show that the measurement accuracy is reliable within the frequency range of 100–2500 Hz.

Applying transfer matrix method, we get reflection and transmission coefficient of finite one dimensional photonic crystals. At the same time, we consider the position influence of single defect. We find the frequency of defect mode is same, but the height of transmission peak is not same when single defect is in different position of crystal. The transmission peak is maximum when the defect is in center of finite one dimensional photonic crystals.

This paper presents a new adaptive control method for active balancing of speed-varying rotors. It is developed based on the feedforward gain adaptation problem, which is a classical technique in the continuous-time adaptive control area. The condition for using this technique is the need for strictly positive realness of the transfer function. In this research, the technique is re-examined and modified to be appropriate for the balancing problem. It is also shown that the rotor dynamics of single-plane balancing problem can easily be converted to a strictly positive real transfer function and that, consequently, the feedfoward gain adaptation technique can be applied. This paper demonstrates that the developed method can be applied to a simple Jeffcott rotor and can also be extended to the single-plane balancing problem of general flexible rotor. Simulation studies show that the new method works well as expected.
