Abstract: The two-dimensional problem of the diffraction of a plane acoustic shock wave by a cylindrical obstacle of arbitrary cross section is considered. An integral equation for the surface values of ...

Abstract: The absolute and relative stability of continuous-time SISO repetitive control systems is examined here using a function of frequency termed the regeneration spectrum. The regeneration spectrum ...

Abstract: The stability, transient response, and stability robustness of discrete-time repetitive control systems characterized by large values of the time delay inherent in such systems are examined here ...

Abstract: In order to compare the magnitude of bending stresses and shear stresses in beams under the action of impulsive forces, the values of these stresses are determined from the known differential ...

Abstract: A series of tests on guide vane and compressor cascades is reported. The Reynolds number was varied in the guide vane cascade tests, and the Reynolds number and the cascade aspect ratio were ...

Abstract: The use of pulsed radar for investigating the integrity of structural elements is gaining popularity and becoming firmly established as a nondestructive test method in civil engineering. Difficulties can often arise in the ...

Abstract: This paper reviews the design and implementation of hardware and software tools for nonintrusive electrical load monitoring. Estimates of spectral content in measured waveforms can be used to ...

Abstract: The use of ground-penetrating radar as a nondestructive investigative technique has gained increasing acceptance both in the United States and in Europe for assessing the structural integrity of concrete structures. However, ...
