Magnetic fluids belong to the class of nanomaterials with a high gain of light absorption, aggregative and sedimentation stability as well as controllability by external fields, which is of interest to use in the field of optoacoustics. The purpose of the work was to experimentally study the effect of the optoacoustic transformation in a magnetic fluid, depending on the concentration ...

2 μm lasers are in demand for a number of practical applications, such as environmental monitoring, remote sensing, medicine, material processing, and are also used as a pump sources for optical parametric generators. Crystals of double potassium tungstates doped with ions of rare-earth elements were shown to be promising materials both for the creation of classical solid-state ...

In silicon microelectronics, flat metal spirals are formed to create an integrated inductance. However, the maximum specific inductance of such spirals at low frequencies is limited to a value of the order of tens of microhenries per square centimeter. Gyrators, devices based on operational amplifiers with approximately the same specific inductance as spirals, are also used. ...

Study of dimensional parametersʼ influence on shielding properties of cylindrical shields will allow to optimise the fusion process, as well as to reduce production costs by reducing the material used. The purpose of this work was to compare results of theoretical calculation of shielding effectiveness of an infinite cylindrical shield with the data obtained in real conditions. ...

Improving the efficiency of diagnostics of objects with layered structure as applied to detection of poorly detectable material bonding defects is an important production task. The aim of the work was to experimentally simulate ultrasonic scattering by samples of proposed defect simulator designs with discretely and smoothly varying boundary conditions correlating with the phase ...

Periodic radiation monitoring of soils today is a priority task not only for Belarus, but also for Japan, suffered by Fukushima nuclear power plant accident. Use of portable and light spectrometers with ability to perform in situ measurements makes it possible to quickly estimate specific activity of measured radionuclides with required accuracy in particular soil site. Basic ...

Models, simulations and experimental setups of resonant inspection robots are presented. The goal is to show ways to cope with the new requirements and to use the given chances to create novel mobile robots. For the creation of a directed motion the vibration behavior of simple beams and plates is used. It is possible to design robots for 2-dimesnional locomotion which are ...

Stray capacitance effects and their influence on Kelvin probe’s performance are studied using mathematical and computer simulation. Presence of metal surface, even grounded, in vicinity of vibrating Kelvin probe produces the additional stray signal of complex harmonic character. Mean value and amplitude of this stray signal depends mostly on the ratio of stray and measurement ...

Grain size is one of the most important characteristics of the microstructure of metals and alloys. Determination of the grain size of steel is regulated by Standart 5639-82 "Steels and alloys. Methods for detection and determination of the grain size". Standart includes determining the grain score by comparison with reference scales, as well as manual measurement methods. The ...

Methods allowing investigation of vibrations of the stainless steel waveguide by combining noncontact techniques with the state-of-the-art multiphysics software are developed. The vibrations of the waveguide, used in nowadays surgery are examined by the aids of the holographic interferometry technique, vibrometer based on Doppler shift of backscattered laser light and the ...
