No. of bitstreams: 0 / Na presente dissertação, foi desenvolvido um equipamento para tomografia com nêutrons que está operacional e instalado no canal de irradiação 14 do Reator Nuclear de Pesquisas IEA-R1 do IPEN-CNEN/SP. As imagens apresentadas neste trabalho, são de objetos que foram selecionados de modo a realçarem uma das principais aplicações da técnica, que é o estudo de materiais hidrogenados mesmo se envoltos por espessa camada de alguns metais. Neste equipamento, uma tomografia completa pode ser obtida em 400 s, com uma resolução espacial máxima de 205 μm. Estas características são comparáveis às dos equipamentos mais desenvolvidos em operação em outros países, e propiciam imagens com qualidade suficiente para que sejam realizadas análises tanto qualitativas quanto quantitativas dos objetos inspecionados. A implementação da técnica da tomografia com nêutrons abre a possibilidade de novas linhas de pesquisa, pois disponibiliza uma nova ferramenta para inspeção de objetos, que fornece uma visão da sua estrutura interna, que nem sempre é possível por métodos de imageamento bidimensional. / Dissertação (Mestrado em Tecnologia Nuclear) / IPEN/D / Instituto de Pesquisas Energeticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP

An F/2 Focal Reducer For The 60-Inch U.S. Naval Observatory TelescopeMeinel, Aden B., Wilkerson, Gary W. 28 February 1968 (has links)
QC 351 A7 no. 07 / The Meinel Reducing Camera for the U. S. Naval Observatory's 60-inch
telescope, Flagstaff, Arizona, comprises an f /10 collimator designed by
Meinel and Wilkerson, and a Leica 50-mm f/2 Summicron camera lens. The
collimator consists of a thick, 5-inch field lens located close to the focal plane of the telescope, plus four additional elements extending toward
the camera. The collimator has an efl of 10 inches, yielding a 1-inch exit
pupil that coincides with the camera's entrance pupil, 1.558 inches beyond
the final surface of the collimator. There is room between the facing lenses
of the collimator and camera to place filters and a grating. The collimated
light here is the best possible situation for interference filters.
Problems of the collimator design work included astigmatism due to the
stop's being so far outside the collimator, and field curvature.
Two computer programs were used in development of the collimator design.
Initial work, begun in 1964, was with the University of Rochester's ORDEALS
program (this was the first time the authors had used such a program) and was
continued through July, 1965. Development subsequently was continued and
completed on the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory's program, LASL. The final
design, completed January 24, 1966, was evaluated with ORDEALS.
This project gave a good opportunity to compare ORDEALS, an "aberration"
program, with LASL, a "ray deviation" program. It was felt that LASL was the
superior program in this case, and some experimental runs beginning with flat
slabs of glass indicated that it could have been used for the entire development of the collimator.
Calculated optical performance of the design indicated that the reducing
camera should be "seeing limited" for most work. Some astigmatism was apparent, but the amount did not turn out to be harmful in actual astronomical use.
After the final design was arrived at, minor changes were made to accommodate actual glass indices of the final melt, and later to accommodate slight
changes of radii and thicknesses of the elements as fabricated. An additional
small change in spacing between two of the elements was made at the observatory after the reducing camera had been in use for a short time.
The fabricated camera is working according to expectations. Some photographs are included in the report to illustrate its performance and utility.

No. of bitstreams: 0 / Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a adaptação marginal em restaurações classe II em dentina e esmalte dental utilizando um sistema adesivo universal de acordo com três técnicas diferentes de aplicação: Autocondicionante, condicionamento seletivo e condicionamento total, através do sistema de tomografia por coerência óptica (OCT), antes e após ao envelhecimento por termociclagem (TC). Preparos classe II foram confeccionados nas paredes mesial e distal, em 30 molares hígidos humanos, com término da cavidade em esmalte e em dentina. Todos os espécimenes foram restaurados (adesivo Single Bond Universal e resina composta Filtek Z350 XT) nas três técnicas de aplicação. Os dentes foram distribuídos aleatoriamente em três grupos (n=10), sendo um para cada técnica de aplicação adesiva: Grupo I: autocondicionante, Grupo II: condicionamento seletivo e Grupo III: condicionamento total; em seguida os grupos foram avaliados antes e depois a termociclagem pelo sistema de tomografia por coerência ótica. De posse dos corpos de prova devidamente restaurados, partimos para os procedimentos de termociclagem (1000 ciclos de 1 minuto com intervalo de 30 segundos) e a avaliação pelo sistema de Tomografia por Coerência Óptica. Em seguida, as amostras foram examinadas por meio de imagens geradas pelo OCT e os dados foram submetidos ao teste estatístico não-paramétricos de Kruskal-Wallis e Dunn (p<0.05). Foi observada diferença estatisticamente significante da adaptação marginal entre os grupos com término em esmalte (p= 0.0073); para os grupos com término em dentina, não foi observada diferença estatisticamente significante na adaptação marginal (p=0.2063). Conclui-se que o OCT foi, então, capaz de diagnosticar a microinfiltração marginal nas restaurações em cavidades classe II. Existe deterioração das margens e alteração de padrão de infiltração marginal com as diferentes técnicas adesivas dos preparos classe II restauradas com resina em esmalte. Atribui-se à termociclagem a falha de vedamento marginal observada nos espécimes após em esmalte. / Dissertação (Mestrado em Tecnologia Nuclear) / IPEN/D / Instituto de Pesquisas Energeticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP

Development of a Software Tool for Mid-Spatial Frequency AnalysisEriksson, Albert January 2021 (has links)
The manufacturing of optical components, such as lenses or mirrors, consists of numeroussteps that are essential to the performance of the fnished optical system, such as the specifcation ofthe optical surface. For a longer period, the main focus has been in identifying and restricting thenegative effects of the low and high spatial frequency content of the surface. However, as technologyand optical equipment has become more advanced, the effects of the mid-spatial frequencies havebeen studied more, and continue to be a topic of research. As of now, there is still a need for methodsthat accurately predict and analyse the regime of mid-spatial frequencies, such that they can becontrolled during the specifcation phase, successfully limiting the need of post-processing steps.This work introduces a software tool, specifcally designed to approach this problem, which wasto be developed in Python as a contribution to the existing Optical Scripting Library at OHB. Byspecifying an optical component in terms of a Power Spectral Density function, together with thecontributions from different spatial frequency domains and the application of a ripple patterns, thissoftware tool can generate pseudo-random optical surfaces, which maintains the input specifcations.Furthermore, a Dynamic Link Library fle was developed, sharing the same functionality as thePython implementation, allowing for simulations using Zemax OpticStudio. Using the software tool,it was found that the relative error between input and output measurements were approximately0.78%, in terms of the Power Spectral Density Function. In addition, the result of analysing one of thetwo test cases indicate that the software tool is effective in predicting the infuence of mid-spatialfrequency errors, fulflling a previously measured predicition. The second test case proved that thesoftware tool can be used for mimicing surfaces of real measurements, holding the same specifcations.

Spatial technology as a tool to analyse and combat crimeEloff, Corné 30 November 2006 (has links)
This study explores the utilisation of spatial technologies as a tool to analyse and combat crime. The study deals specifically with remote sensing and its potential for being integrated with geographical information systems (GIS). The integrated spatial approach resulted in the understanding of land use class behaviour over time and its relationship to specific crime incidents per police precinct area.
The incorporation of spatial technologies to test criminological theories in practice, such as the ecological theories of criminology, provides the science with strategic value. It proves the value of combining multi-disciplinary scientific fields to create a more advanced platform to understand land use behaviour and its relationship to crime.
Crime in South Africa is a serious concern and it impacts negatively on so many lives. The fear of crime, the loss of life, the socio-economic impact of crime, etc. create the impression that the battle against crime has been lost. The limited knowledge base within the law enforcement agencies, limited logistical resources and low retention rate of critical staff all contribute to making the reduction of crime more difficult to achieve.
A practical procedure of using remote sensing technology integrated with geographical information systems (GIS), overlaid with geo-coded crime data to provide a spatial technological basis to analyse and combat crime, is illustrated by a practical study of the Tshwane municipality area. The methodology applied in this study required multi-skilled resources incorporating GIS and the understanding of crime to integrate the diverse scientific fields into a consolidated process that can contribute to the combating of crime in general.
The existence of informal settlement areas in South Africa stresses the socio-economic problems that need to be addressed as there is a clear correlation of land use data with serious crime incidents in these areas. The fact that no formal cadastre exists for these areas, combined with a great diversity in densification and growth of the periphery, makes analysis very difficult without remote sensing imagery. Revisits over time to assess changes in these areas in order to adapt policing strategies will create an improved information layer for responding to crime. Final computerised maps generated from remote sensing and GIS layers are not the only information that can be used to prevent and combat crime. An important recipe for ultimately successfully managing and controlling crime in South Africa is to strategically combine training of the law enforcement agencies in the use of spatial information with police science.
The researcher concludes with the hope that this study will contribute to the improved utilisation of spatial technology to analyse and combat crime in South Africa. The ultimate vision is the expansion of the science of criminology by adding an advanced spatial technology module to its curriculum. / Criminology / D.Litt. et Phil. (Criminology)
