Full Waveform Inversion Using Oriented Time Migration MethodZhang, Zhendong 12 April 2016 (has links)
Full waveform inversion (FWI) for reflection events is limited by its linearized update requirements given by a process equivalent to migration. Unless the background velocity model is reasonably accurate the resulting gradient can have an inaccurate update direction leading the inversion to converge into what we refer to as local minima of the objective function. In this thesis, I first look into the subject of full model wavenumber to analysis the root of local minima and suggest the possible ways to avoid this problem. And then I analysis the possibility of recovering the corresponding wavenumber components through the existing inversion and migration algorithms. Migration can be taken as a generalized inversion method which mainly retrieves the high wavenumber part of the model. Conventional impedance inversion method gives a mapping relationship between the migration image (high wavenumber) and model parameters (full wavenumber) and thus provides a possible cascade inversion strategy to retrieve the full wavenumber components from seismic data. In the proposed approach, consider a mild lateral variation in the model, I find an analytical Frechet derivation corresponding to the new objective function. In the proposed approach, the gradient is given by the oriented time-domain imaging method. This is independent of the background velocity. Specifically, I apply the oriented time-domain imaging (which depends on the reflection slope instead of a background velocity) on the data residual to obtain the geometrical features of the velocity perturbation. Assuming that density is constant, the conventional 1D impedance inversion method is also applicable for 2D or 3D velocity inversion within the process of FWI. This method is not only capable of inverting for velocity, but it is also capable of retrieving anisotropic parameters relying on linearized representations of the reflection response. To eliminate the cross-talk artifacts between different parameters, I utilize what I consider being an optimal parameterization. To do so, I extend the prestack time-domain migration image in incident angle dimension to incorporate angular dependence needed by the multiparameter inversion. For simple models, this approach provides an efficient and stable way to do full waveform inversion or modified seismic inversion and makes the anisotropic inversion more practical. Results based on synthetic data of isotropic and anisotropic case examples illustrate the benefits and limitations of this method.

Evaluating the Aerodynamic Performance of MFC-Actuated Morphing Wings to Control a Small UAVProbst, Troy Anthony 06 November 2012 (has links)
The purpose of this research is to evaluate certain performance characteristics of a morphing<br />wing system that uses Macro Fiber Composites (MFC) to create camber change. This<br />thesis can be broken into two major sections. The first half compares a few current MFC<br />airfoil designs to each other and to a conventional servomechanism (servo) airfoil. Their<br />performance was measured in terms of lift and drag in a 2-D wind tunnel. The results<br />showed MFC airfoils were effective but limited by aeroelasticity compared to the servo. In<br />addition, a morphed airfoil and a flapped airfoil were rapid prototyped and tested to isolate<br />the effects of discontinuity. The continuous morphed airfoil produced more lift with less<br />drag.<br />The second half of this thesis work focused on determining the ideal MFC configurations for<br />a thin wing application. Simulations were run on a thin wing with embedded MFCs such<br />that the whole wing morphed. Finite element and vortex lattice models were used to predict<br />deflections and rolling moment coefficients. Different configuration parameters were then<br />varied to quantify their effect. The comparisons included MFC location, number of MFCs,<br />material substrate, and wing thickness. A prototype wing was then built and flight tested.<br />While the simulations overestimated the wing deflection, the flight results illustrated the<br />complexity and variability associated with the MFC morphing system. The rolling moment<br />coefficients from flight were consistent with the simulation given the differences in deflection. / Master of Science

On a Viterbi decoder design for low power dissipationRanpara, Samirkumar Dhirajlal 29 April 1999 (has links)
Convolutinal coding is a coding scheme often employed in deep space communications and recently in digital wireless communications. Viterbi decoders are used to decode convolutional codes. Viterbi decoders employed in digital wireless communications are complex and dissipate large power. With the proliferation of battery powered devices such as cellular phones and laptop computers, power dissipation, along with speed and area, is a major concern in VLSI design. In this thesis, we investigated a low-power design of Viterbi decoders for wireless communications applications. In CMOS technology the major source of power dissipation is attributed to dynamic power dissipation, which is due to the switching of signal values. The focus of our research in the low-power design of Viterbi decoders is reduction of dynamic power dissipation at logic level in the standard cell design environment. We considered two methods, clock-gating and toggle-filtering, in our design. A Viterbi decoder consists of five blocks. The clock-gating was applied to the survivor path storage block and the toggle-filtering to the trace-back block of a Viterbi decoder. We followed the standard cell design approach to implement the design. The behavior of a Viterbi decoder was described in VHDL, and then the VHDL description was modified to embed the low-power design. A gate level circuit was obtained from the behavioral description through logic synthesis, and a full scan design was incorporated into the gate level circuit to ease testing. The gate level circuit was placed and routed to generate a layout of the design. Our experimental result shows the proposed design reduces the power dissipation of a Viterbi decoder by about 42 percent compared with the on without considering the low-power design. / Master of Science

Entwicklung von Full-Waveform Stackingverfahren zur Detektion schwacher Gewässerbodenechos in der LaserbathymetrieMader, David 20 June 2023 (has links)
Airborne Laserbathymetrie stellt eine effiziente und flächenhafte Messmethode für die Erfassung der sich ständig im Wandel befindlichen Gewässersohlen von Inlandgewässern und küstennahen Flachwasserbereichen dar. Bei diesem Verfahren wird ein kurzer grüner Laserpuls ausgesandt, welcher mit allen Objekten entlang des Laserpulspfades interagiert (z.B. Wasseroberfläche und Gewässerboden). Die zum Sensor zurückgestreuten Laserpulsanteile (Echos) werden in einem zeitlich hochaufgelösten Messsignal (Full-Waveform) digitalisiert und gespeichert. Allerdings ist das Messverfahren aufgrund von Gewässertrübung in seiner Eindringtiefe in den Wasserkörper limitiert. Die Gewässerbodenechos werden bei zunehmender Gewässertiefe schwächer, bis sie nicht mehr zuverlässig detektierbar sind.
Diese Arbeit zeigt, wie mit neuartigen Methoden schwache Gewässerbodenechos in Full-Waveforms detektiert werden können, welche durch die Standardauswerteverfahren nicht mehr berücksichtigt werden. Im Kernstück der Arbeit werden zwei Verfahren vorgestellt, die auf einer gemeinsamen Auswertung dicht benachbarter Messdaten basieren. Unter der Annahme eines stetigen Gewässerbodens mit geringer bis moderater Geländeneigung führt die Zusammenfassung mehrerer Full-Waveforms zu einer Verbesserung des Signal/Rausch-Verhältnisses und einer Verstärkung von schwachen Gewässerbodenechos, welche folglich zuverlässiger detektiert werden können.
Die Ergebnisse zeigen eine erhebliche Erhöhung der auswertbaren Gewässertiefe (bis zu +30 %), wodurch eine deutlich größere Fläche des Gewässerbodens abgedeckt werden konnte (Flächenzuwachs von bis zu +113 %). In umfassenden Analysen der Ergebnisse konnte nachgewiesen werden, dass die hinzugewonnenen Gewässerbodenpunkte eine gute Repräsentation des Gewässerbodens darstellen. Somit leisten die in dieser Arbeit entwickelten Verfahren einen wertvollen Beitrag zur Steigerung der eingangs beschriebenen Effizienz der Airborne Laserbathymetrie.:Kurzfassung

Abkürzungsverzeichnis / Airborne laser bathymetry is an efficient and area-wide measurement method for the detection of the permanently changing water bottoms of inland waters and shallow water areas close to the coast. In this method, a short green laser pulse is emitted, which interacts with all objects along the laser pulse path (e.g. water surface and bottom). The backscattered laser pulse components (echoes) are digitized and stored in a high temporal resolution measurement signal (full-waveform). However, the measurement method is limited in its penetration depth into the water body due to water turbidity. The water bottom echoes become weaker as the water depth increases until they are no longer reliably detectable.
This work shows how novel methods can be used to detect weak water bottom echoes in full-waveforms that are no longer accounted for by standard processing methods. In the core of the work, two methods are presented which are based on a joint evaluation of closely adjacent measurement data. Under the assumption of a steady water bottom with low to moderate slope, the combination of several full-waveforms leads to an improvement of the signal-to-noise ratio and an enhancement of weak water bottom echoes, which consequently can be detected more reliably.
The results show a significant increase in the analyzable water depth (up to +30 %), allowing a much larger area of the water bottom to be covered (increase up to +113 %). Comprehensive analyses of the results proved that the added water bottom points are a good representation of the water bottom. Thus, the methods developed in this work constitute a valuable contribution to increase the efficiency of airborne laser bathymetry described at the beginning.:Kurzfassung

Total Radical Antioxidant Potential of Four Different Types of Full-Leaf Tea as Determined by Luminol-Enhanced Chemiluminescence MeasurementsSreenivasan, Shreepriya 11 May 2013 (has links)
Demand for tea is increasingly driven by its reported antioxidative properties. To ascertain such efficacy, the antioxidative activity (AA) of freshly brewed commercially available full-leaf white, green, oolong, and black tea was determined using a dynamic method. Various amounts (w/v) of tea were brewed at different temperatures for a constant period of time. The AA was calculated based on the ability of the brew to quench hydroxyl-radicals as quantified by chemiluminescence detection. Black tea had the strongest radical scavenging ability followed by green tea. Their AA was far greater than those of the other two types of tea tested. This efficacy finally eroded on serial dilution to a tea concentration of 0.15625 X 10-4 g/mL. The significant data clearly substantiate the sound premise that tea, particularly black tea, is unique in its dramatic ability to counter the adverse onslaught of radicals that are known contributors to human morbidity and mortality.
