This is a review paper based on recent literature in the areas
of spherical mirror resonators and optical mode selection. The
Fabry-Perot interferometer with spherical mirrors has been widely
used as a laser resonator. The modes of oscillation, diffraction
losses and resonance condition are determined for the confocal
resonator, i.e....
This is a review paper of current literature in the area of
pressure effects on gaseous lasers.
This thesis discusses the mechanisms which relate the relative
power output of the 6328 A[superscript ⁰] neon transition to total and partial pressure
variations of the helium-neon gaseous laser. The operation of
the...
In this paper a signal-processed antenna and receiver system is
proposed and analyzed. In addition, a simulation of the balanced-mixer portion of the processing system is made on a hybrid computer
to find the bandwidth limitations for the total system. The system
utilizes both the amplitude and phase information of...
This paper develops an equation, from an heuristic set of assumptions,
which describes the axial current, leakage current, resultant
electric field, and resultant earth potential occurring when
a pipeline buried within a resistive earth is subjected to a distributed,
primary, axial, electrostatic field produced from a high-voltage, direct-current (HVDC) power...
The power dissipation of microstrip transmission-line on
gold-doped silicon substrates was investigated. The gold-doping was
applied to a regular n-type silicon substrate with resistivity of 5 to
10 ohm-cm. Insertion-loss tests were employed to measure the
power dissipation of the microstrips. Power dissipation somewhat
less than that for intrinsic silicon...
The objective of this thesis is to develop criteria for a data
acquisition system for electrical machinery capable of sampling a
signal every 0.2 msec with a desired accuracy of 0.1%. The system to
be measured includes both AC and DC voltage and current signals from
several points. The main...
A simulation method using a hybrid computer is developed in
this dissertation to enhance the study of wind-driven ocean circulation.
The simulation is based on the mathematical model developed by
Ekman. Pure digital simulation is not economical due to excessive
computer time required for the solution of the partial differential...
The effect of the mutual inductances between the rotor coils of a synchronous machine on its defined reactances and predicted transients are investigated. Two linearized models of the machine are considered. One uses the Laplace-Transform approach, with minimum number of assumptions on the inter-coil couplings, in developing a model for...
In this research, a novel shunt compensation scheme
design procedure is developed for unbalanced, untransposed
n-phase transmission lines. The main function of the
scheme is to reduce the effect of the capacitive coupling
on untransposed transmission lines to levels where successful
single-pole switching is assured. The analysis procedure
is carried...
The synchronous machine is an essential component of a power
system and determination of its parameters accurately is an
important task in securing adequate modes of operation through
certain control strategies. An estimation technique based on the
Powell algorithm was evaluated for the identification of these
parameters on the basis...
