Note that the rate equa- tion for the macroscopic polarization within the gain medium does not enter this model because it decays very rapidly, relative to the time scale at which E(t) and N(t) evolve in semiconductor lasers, and hence can be adiabatically eliminated. keywords: carrier; carrier inversion; complex; delay; differential; dynamics; e(t; electric; electric field; equations; excess; feedback; field; figure; formalism; function; gain; intensity; intracavity; inversion; kobayashi; lambert; lang; laser; model; n(t; optical; power; pump; rate; semiconductor; single; solution; state; steady; system; threshold; time; value; window cache: ap-4608.pdf plain text: ap-4608.txt item: #777 of 1243 id: ap-4610 author: Kovács, József; Lévai, Géza title: ON THE COMMON LIMIT OF THE PT-SYMMETRIC ROSEN–MORSE II AND FINITE SQUARE WELL POTENTIALS date: 2017-12-30 words: 4215 flesch: 69 summary: Keywords: PT -symmetric potential; bound states; scattering; Dirac-δ limit.

Studying this model, following knowledge was obtained: – the parameter ”stress ratio R” was a good physical characteristic – the proposed model provided a good description of the eight collections of fatigue test results by one equation only – the scatter of the results through the whole scope is only a little greater than that round the individual S/N curve – using this model while testing may reduce the number of test samples and shorten the test time – as the proposed model represents a common form of the S/N curve, it may be used for processing uniform objective fatigue life results, which may enable mutual comparison of fatigue characteristics. keywords: characteristics; curves; cycle; czech; equation; fatigue; fig; function; life; log; mathematical; model; new; number; original; paper; parameters; range; results; stress; system; technical; test; university; value cache: ap-570.pdf plain text: ap-570.txt item: #892 of 1243 id: ap-5709 author: Beneš, Michal; Štefan, Radek title: HOMOGENIZATION OF TRANSPORT PROCESSES AND HYDRATION PHENOMENA IN FRESH CONCRETE date: 2020-03-02 words: 7150 flesch: 64 summary: Periodic cell problem The problems (10) and (11) need to be solved in each discrete time step.

The price we pay for the complexity reduction is a slight loss in Pd as compared with the traditional method, also, it can be seen that although the proposed method using the SDFT hasa greater reduction in the computational complexity than the other proposed methods that use the FFT, it also gives a good detection performance, especially at low values of Eb/N0, since the SDFT has a higher accuracy than the FFT and the performance of other methods becomes the same as the method that uses the SDFT at Eb/N0 equals 6 dB. As shown in the figure, when Eb/N0 equals 0 dB, Pd is decreased by 20 % and 10 % using proposed methods that use the FFT and SDFT respectively, as compared with the hybrid method in [4] and increased by 30 % and 40 % respectively, as compared with the energy de- tector. keywords: autocorrelation; channel; cognitive; complexity; computational; computational complexity; cooperative; curves; cyclic; cyclostationary; cyclostationary detector; detection; detection performance; detector; energy; energy detector; fading; fft; figure; frequency; hybrid; hybrid method; information; low; method; multipath; number; o(ns; performance; probability; process; proposed; radio; reduction; results; samples; scenario; sdft; sensing; signal; spectrum; technique; threshold; traditional; traditional method; values cache: ap-5994.pdf plain text: ap-5994.txt item: #918 of 1243 id: ap-600 author: Kratěna, J.; Fořt, I. title: Study of the Discharge Stream from a Standard Rushton turbine impeller date: 2004-01-04 words: 3694 flesch: 59 summary: th b t b av p t p av, , , , , ,( ) ( )� �� �2 2 .
