Measurement of carbon dioxide corrosion on carbon steel using electrochemical frequency modulation

Sridharan, Venkatasubramaniyan 15 July 2009
Electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM), which has been widely used in the research field of semiconductors, was used to study CO2 corrosion on carbon steel under film forming and non-film forming conditions. In the EFM technique two sinusoidal voltage signals of different frequencies are applied to the system and the response current is measured at zero, harmonic and intermodulation frequencies from which the corrosion rate is calculated. The corrosion rate calculation depends upon whether the system is under activation, diffusion or passivation control. In this research rotating cylindrical electrodes made of AISI carbon steel 1018 were immersed in 3% (w/w) NaCl solution saturated with carbon dioxide. The experiment was done at 5 rpm, 24 rpm and 100 rpm simulating laminar, transient and turbulent flow regions respectively. The exposure time was varied from 1 hour to 24 hours and the results were compared with other electrochemical methods such as linear polarization (LP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). It was found that it was crucial to select the correct EFM model to ensure accurate corrosion rate measurement. A very good agreement in the polarization resistance was obtained between EIS and EFM indicating that EFM can be used as an effective tool in corrosion studies providing that the corrosion mechanism is known.

Studies of characteristics of frequency modulation liquid-crystal optoelectronic devices

Chen, Zheng-hsiung 21 July 2008 (has links)
We study the characteristics of the dual frequency liquid-crystal (LC) optoelectronic devices in this literary. We fabricate the LC lens with the dual frequency liquid crystal in our experiment. In this study, we first prepare a parabolic polymer structure on the glass substrate to form a polymeric lens glass, then, fill the dual-frequency LC into the empty cell which consists of one ITO glass and the polymeric lens glass to fabricate a frequency modulation LC lens. Additionally, a hybrid surface alignment is also used for our LC lens. For the dual-frequency LC, a hybrid surface alignment is necessary to obtain a frequency modulation LC lens. Because of the polymeric lens, the electric fields are inhomogeneous distributions in the LC lens when a voltage is applied to the electrodes. In this situation, an inhomogeneous electric field is applied to the cell to create GRIN lens-like distribution of the gradient refractive index. Thus, the focusing effects occur when the light passes through the LC lens. Moreover, by changing the amplitude and frequency of the applied voltage, the focal length of the LC lens can be changed. We mainly discuss the optical property and the response time of the LC lens based on the voltage modulation and the frequency modulation. The experimental results reveal that the frequency modulation has more advantages, such as widen range of controlled focal length and faster response time, comparing with the voltage modulation.

Neuronal Adaptation and Formant Transition Direction in Vowels: An MMN Study

Crawford, Nathanael 11 March 2014 (has links)
Examined was whether the mismatch negativity (MMN) varied predictably in response to changes in the direction of frequency-modulated tone glides and equivalent second formant transitions in vowels (e.g., /ɪ/ as in “bit” and /e/ as in “bate”). A novel stimulus presentation paradigm was designed to distinguish the MMN from the N1 component. 10 normal-hearing adults with no neurological diseases were recruited and presented stimuli via insert earphones while they watched a silent, subtitled movie. Event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded from 128 scalp electrodes. The MMN was successfully distinguished from the N1, marking participants’ ability to discriminate vowel stimuli only. A significant early P2 component, which decreased in size with successive stimulus presentations, was also elicited for vowels only and is believed to reflect formant encoding. Discrepancies between vowel and tone results are discussed along with clinical implications and contributions to the fields of ERP and vowel research.

Optimized digital signal processing algorithms applied to radio communications.

Carter, Alan James Auchmuty. January 1992 (has links)
The application of digital signal processing to radio communications has come of age with the advent of low power, high speed microprocessors and over the past five years, various transceiver architectures, utilizing this new technology have been extensively researched. Due to the flexible nature of a software based transceiver, a myriad of possible applications exist and currently the emphasis is on the development of suitable algorithms. The principal aim of this research is the derivation of optimized digital signal processing algorithms applicable to three separate areas of radio communications. Optimized, as used by the author within this dissertation, implies a reasonable compromise between performance, complexity and numerical processing efficiency. This compromise is necessary since the algorithms are applied to a portable transceiver where power consumption, size and weight are limited. The digital signal processing algorithms described by this research is as follows:- 1. The derivation and assessment of a multirate speech amplitude modulation demodulator which exhibits low distortion (typically less than 2%) for a wide range of modulation indices, carrier frequency offsets and deviations. The demodulator is processing efficient and requires only five multiplications and five decisions for every output sample. 2. The derivation and assessment of a low sampling rate speech frequency modulation demodulator for signals whose bandwidth exceed quarter the sampling frequency. The demodulator exhibits low distortion (typically less than 2%) and is processing efficient requiring eighteen multiplications and three decisions for every output sample. 3. The derivation and assessment of a multirate single-sideband suppressed carrier automatic frequency control system which is a combination of a simple second order adaptive line enhancer and a digital phase-locked loop. The processing efficient automatic frequency control system is suited for low signal to noise power conditions, in both stationary and mobile communication channels. / Thesis (Ph.D.)-University of Natal, Durban, 1992.
