To catch symptoms of machine failure as early as possible, one of the most important strategies is to apply more progressive techniques during signal processing. This paper presents a method based on stochastic resonance (SR) to detect weak fault signal. First, a discrete model of a bistable system that can demonstrate SR is researched, and the stability condition for controlling the selection of model parameters of the discrete model and guarantee the solving convergence are established. Then, the frequency range of the weak signals that the SR model can detect is extended through a type of normalized scale transformation. Finally, the method is applied to extract the weak characteristic component from heavy noise to indicate the little crack fault in a bearing outer circle.
Metalenses have attracted much attention from researchers because they are thin, multifunctional and easy to integrate. However, due to the limitation of fabrication techniques and the influence of working wavelength, it is difficult to realize a large aperture. In this paper, we design and simulate polarization-insensitive, orthogonal linearly polarized and orthogonal circularly polarized synthetic aperture metalenses. We use a synthetic aperture to improve the cutoff frequency of the metalens and achieve an equivalent large-aperture metalens. We compare the modulation transfer function and focusing efficiency of synthetic aperture metalenses with different array structures. This work provides an effective solution to the needs of large-aperture metalenses, and metalenses with different polarizations can play an important role in polarization imaging.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
