Terahertz dynamic scanning reflectometry (TDSR) was used for measuring layered materials’ deformation kinetics
spectra. Multi-layered materials are used for protective devices such as helmet and body armor. An in-situ measurement of deformation profile and other dynamic characteristics is important when such material is subjected to ballistic impacts. Current instrumentation is limited in their abilities to provide sub-surface information in a non-destructive fashion. A high sensitivity TDSR has been used to measure dynamic surface deformation characteristics in real-time (in-situ) and also at post deformation (ex-situ). Real-time ballistic deformation kinetics was captured with a high speed measurement system. The kinetics spectra was used to compute a number of crucial parameters such as deformation
length and its propagation profile, the relaxation position, and the macroscopic vibration profile. In addition, the loss of mass due to impact was quantified for accurate determination of the trauma causing energy. For non-metallic substrates, a transmitted beam was used to calibrate mass loss, a priori, of the laminate layers due to impact. Deformation kinetics information may then be used to formulate trauma diagnosis conditions from blunt hit via the Sturdivan criterion [1].
The basic difference in the proposed approach is that here diagnostic criteria are inferred by measuring the helmet itself; no need to draw blood or any biopsy from the patient.
Shock Simulation of the Optics Mirror Assembly By Numerical MethodIJERA Editor
Satellite faces many extreme types of loading throughout their life time from the harsh launch environment to
the critical space environment. Launch load mainly dynamic is the main design concern for space structure.
Shocks are the one of the most critical dynamic load occurs in spacecraft. Optics Mirror Assembly (OMA) is
used in the telescope of the satellite. The telescope performance relies on dimensional control & the geometric
positioning of the mirror, pointing accuracy and controlled surface deformation of the mirror; Mirror fixation
device (MFD) is used for controlling all these factors. It should not distort due to launch loads mainly shocks as
well as loads during operation of the telescope. In the present work an attempt has been made to perform
experimental and computational analysis of the shock load on Optics Mirror Assembly.
The FE modal for Shock Analysis purpose has been analysed with a specific Linear Transient Response
Analysis in order to obtain the time history of acceleration in several output points. The analysis has been
conducted over the time interval 0 to 62 ms and frequency band between 10 - 10 KHz. In order to verify the
feasibility and reliability of the numerical (Implicit Finite Element Code, Nastran) analysis, the numerical
results obtained by Nastran have been compared with those obtained experimentally in the form of SRS. The
overall outcome of the simulation method has proven its reliability in simulating Satellite payloads subjected to
shocks.
Efficiency Measurement of Indian Standard SPT Hammer Context for Liquefactionijsrd.com
The standard penetration test (SPT) is the most widely used in in-situ test. This test involve hammer impact on penetration rods, and resulting penetration resistance or blow counts is strongly influenced by the amount of hammer energy actually transferred into the rods. Research has shown that the energy transfer to the rod is lesser than the actual energy generated by the blows of hammer, so the direct approach of determining the transferred energy, based on force and acceleration measurements near the top of the drill rods, should be adopted. The proposed approach provides a unified method of measuring transferred energy in the SPT. The measured energy data can be used in a consistent manner to correct the recorded blow counts to a reference energy level for each test and allow reliable correlation of the same in assessment of liquefaction potential evaluation.

Implementation of Radon Transformation for Electrical Impedance Tomography (E...ijistjournal
Radon Transformation is generally used to construct optical image (like CT image) from the projection data in biomedical imaging. In this paper, the concept of Radon Transformation is implemented to reconstruct Electrical Impedance Topographic Image (conductivity or resistivity distribution) of a circular subject. A parallel resistance model of a subject is proposed for Electrical Impedance Topography(EIT) or Magnetic Induction Tomography(MIT). A circular subject with embedded circular objects is segmented into equal width slices from different angles. For each angle, Conductance and Conductivity of each slice is calculated and stored in an array. A back projection method is used to generate a two-dimensional image from one-dimensional projections. As a back projection method, Inverse Radon Transformation is applied on the calculated conductance and conductivity to reconstruct two dimensional images. These images are compared to the target image. In the time of image reconstruction, different filters are used and these images are compared with each other and target image.

A Novel Displacement-amplifying Compliant Mechanism Implemented on a Modified...IJECEIAES
The micro-accelerometers are devices used to measure acceleration. They are implemented in applications such as tilt-control in spacecraft, inertial navigation, oil exploration, etc. These applications require high operating frequency and displacement sensitivity. But getting both high parameter values at the same time is difficult, because there are physical relationships, for each one, where the mass is involved. When the mass is reduced, the operating frequency is high, but the displacement sensitivity decreases and vice versa. The implementation of Displacement-amplifying Compliant Mechanism (DaCM) supports to this dependence decreases. In this paper the displacement sensitivity and operation frequency of a Conventional Capacitive Accelerometer are shown (CCA). A Capacitive Accelerometer with Extended Beams (CAEB) is also presented, which improves displacement sensitivity compared with CCA, and finally the implementation of DACM´s in the aforementioned devices was also carried out. All analyzed cases were developed considering the in-plane mode. The Matlab code used to calculate displacement sensitivity and operating frequency relationship is given in Appendix A.

Dear Dr. Daniels,
This report outlines the procedures and results of the MECH 3315 Impact Force Lab. The lab includes a
concise description of the lab setup, the results and analysis of the results, and description of anything
that went wrong as well as future recommendations. With the numerical values of the data, error
propagation and uncertainties are included so that the error of the equipment and the calculations are
already taken into account. The purpose behind this information is to determine how different distances
impact the force on a beam through the deformation of the beam.
Although the calculations were the majority of the report there is a strong emphasis on the theory behind
the calculations and the data is explained as well so that it can be converted into knowledge for everyday
use. Data tables with paired graphs were created as the visual portions of the analysis. The raw data will
be included in the appendix as well so that there is proof of where the data originated from and with that,
pictures of the lab setup to create an actual picture of what the lab consisted of. It is our hope that from
this document, the theory of impact force will be clarified, as well as make recommendations to improve
the project for future students performing the same lab.

Abstract
The objective of this experiment was to describe how a small rotating steel hammer impacts an
aluminum cantilever beam at different angles. When the hammer hits the beam, it creates a dynamic
point load which then is converted into a strain. An accelerometer was used measure the different
angels, while a strain gauge measured the beam deflection. From the strain, the force which was
imposed on the beam was calculated using the equation for strain and then plotted against the angles.
From that plot the conclusion was made that as the angle increases so does the force on the beam and
with analysis grouped into a specific function (e.g linear, exponential, logarithmic, and sinusoidal). The
conclusion was drawn that values of the theoretical were very similar to the experimental.

This paper outlines the basic technology and economic model of the core silicon technology. Silicon is the second most abundant element on the earth’s crust but there is no specific deposit or mine for silicon.
The only source for silicon is “sand” that the earth has an abundant supply. Here we outline the basic steps of manufacturing silicon ingot and wafers. It is projected that, once produced, these products will gain immediate market access, thus creating economic activities in a reasonably short period of time. The three initial products that could stem from the basic silicon ingot are silicon wafers, for both semiconductor and solar cell applications, and optical fiber for communication. This report focuses on the essential silicon
technology to produce silicon ingot, and silicon wafer, as the first step. Finally, the historic data available for the silicon wafer consumption per year have been modeled with the well-known Bass diffusion model.
It was found that with modified parameters, the Bass model fits the historic data well and the same model allows a projection for a few years in the future. This projected economic activities, therefore, encourages a social transformation towards a technological self-sufficiency.

Lattice dilation of metallic nickel film deposited by plasma-spraying on a ceramic layer that is also prepared by plasma-spraying, has been investigated by high resolution terahertz imaging and sequential zooming of the images to quantify the lattice parameter by graphical analysis. A metallic nickel sample
was first imaged, and its measured lattice constant was found to be in agreement with the known value.
Subsequently, four additional samples containing plasma-sprayed nickel film have also been imaged via an identical procedure. The lattice images of all samples were used for graphical analysis and quantification of the respective lattice parameters. Four samples, viz., 77, 81, 129 and 111 have been analyzed and their lattice dilation was investigated. It was found that the lattice distance (d) of these samples is in the order as, d77 < d81 < d129 < d111 and higher than the value of metallic nickel. Unit cell volume and density were also calculated for each sample from the measured lattice parameter. The density was found in the decreasing order for the 4 samples; i.e., ρρρ ρ77 > ρ81 > ρ129 > ρ111 and the density values are significantly lower than the value for nickel. To our knowledge, this is the first direct evidence of the lattice dilation of plasma-sprayed metallic nickel measured via the terahertz lattice imaging, without requiring an electron microscope. Thus, the results presented herein establish an exciting extension of camera-less, reconstructive terahertz imaging technique that produces such a clear lattice image of nickel and allows to quantify the lattice parameter. The technique, however, is a general one, applicable to any material.
Abstract— This paper demonstrates overcoming of the Abbe diffraction limit (ADL) on image resolution. Here, terahertz multispectral reconstructive imaging has been described and used for analyzing nanometer size metal lines fabricated on a silicon wafer. It has also been demonstrated that while overcoming the ADL is a required condition, it is not sufficient to achieve sub-nanometer image resolution with longer wavelengths. A nanoscanning technology has been developed that exploits the modified Beer-Lambert’s law for creating a measured reflectance data matrix and utilizes the ‘inverse distance to power equation’ algorithm for achieving 3D, sub-nanometer image resolution. The nano-lines images reported herein, were compared to SEM images. The terahertz images of 70 nm lines agreed well with the TEM images. The 14 nm lines by SEM were determined to be ~15 nm. Thus, the wavelength dependent Abbe diffraction limit on image resolution has been overcome. Layer-by-layer analysis has been demonstrated where 3D images are analyzed on any of the three orthogonal planes. Images of grains on the metal lines have also been analyzed. Unlike electron microscopes, where the samples must be in the vacuum chamber and must be thin enough for electron beam transparency, terahertz imaging is non-destructive, non-contact technique without laborious sample preparation.

Two critical nanoscale design parameters (CNDPs); namely, surface chemistry and interior compositions of poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers were systematically engineered to produce unique hyperpolarizable, electro-optical substrates. These electro-optically active dendritic films were demonstrated to produce high quality, continuous wave terahertz radiation when exposed to a suitable pump laser that could be used for spectrometry and molecular imaging. These dendrimer based dipole excitation (DDE) terahertz sources were used to construct a working spectrometer suitable for many practical applications including THz imaging and analysis of encapsulated hydrogen species in fullerenes.
Abstract
Terahertz spectral analysis has been conducted on epitaxially grown semiconductor structures. Epitaxially grown semiconductors are important for microelectronic and optoelectronic devices and also for integrated circuits
fabricated using semiconductors. In this paper, we report results of terahertz time-domain spectroscopy of grown
SiGe layers on Ge buffer and separately a Ge buffer that was grown on a Si <001> wafer. In particular, evolution of
the time-domain spectra as a function of thickness of both samples was investigated by the terahertz pump-probe
technique. Representative spectra were analyzed to determine the respective layers’ spectral signatures. It was found that the spectroscopic analysis uniquely identified different layers by characteristic absorbance peaks. In addition, terahertz imaging was conducted in a non-destructive, non-contact mode for detecting lattice stacking fault and dislocations. Sub-surface imaging of grown SiGe layers on Ge buffer and that of the Ge buffer grown on a Si wafer reveals interesting lattice features in both samples. A comparison with TEM images of the samples exhibits that the terahertz image reproduces the dimensions found from TEM images within the experimental error limits. In particular, 3D images of both samples were generated by the terahertz reconstructive technique. The images were analyzed by graphical means to determine the respective layer thicknesses. Thus, this technique offers a versatile tool for both semiconductor research and in-line inspections.
Abstract
Terahertz sub-surface imaging offers an effective solution for surface and 3D imaging because of minimal
sample preparation requirements and its ability to “see” below the surface. Another important property is the ability
to inspect on a layer-by layer basis via a non-contact route, non-destructive route. Terahertz 3D imager designed
at Applied Research and Photonics (Harrisburg, PA) has been used to demonstrate reconstructive imaging with a
resolution of less than a nanometer. Gridding with inverse distance to power equations has been described for 3D
image formation. A continuous wave terahertz source derived from dendrimer dipole excitation has been used for
reflection mode scanning in the three orthogonal directions. Both 2D and 3D images are generated for the analysis
of silver iodide quantum dots’ size parameter. Layer by layer image analysis has been outlined. Graphical analysis
was used for particle size and layer thickness determinations. The demonstrated results of quantum dot particle
size checks well with those determined by TEM micrograph and powder X-ray diffraction analysis. The reported
non-contact measurement system is expected to be useful for characterizing 2D and 3D naomaterials as well as for process development and/or quality inspection at the production line.
Abstract: Non-destructive terahertz reflection interferometry offers many advantages for sub-surface inspection such as interrogation of hidden defects and measurement of layers’ thicknesses. Here, we describe a terahertz reflection interferometry (TRI) technique for non-contact measurement of paint panels where the paint is comprised of different layers of primer, basecoat, topcoat and clearcoat. Terahertz interferograms were generated by reflection from different layers of paints on a metallic substrate. These interferograms’ peak spacing arising from the delay-time response of respective layers, allow one to model the thicknesses of the constituent layers. Interferograms generated at different incident angles show that the interferograms are more pronounced at certain angles than others. This “optimum” angle is also a function of different paint and substrate combinations. An automated angular scanning algorithm helps visualizing the evolution of the interferograms as a function of incident angle and also enables the identification of optimum reflection angle for a given paint-substrate combination. Additionally, scanning at different points on a substrate reveals that there are observable variations from one point to another of the same sample over its entire surface area. This ability may be used as a quality control tool for in-situ inspection in a production line.
Electro-optic Dendrimer is used to generate milliwatts of terahertz power by difference frequency
method. A terahertz time-domain spectrometer (THz-TDS) has been designed around this source that
exhibits wide broadband terahertz range, 0.1 to 35 THz. Examples of molecular characterization are discussed
for three common explosives and the vibrational states of Fullerenes. The explosives’ spectra are
unique for each explosive that allow detection and identification of the species. The Fullerenes C60 and
H2@C60 also exhibit distinctively different spectra and absorbance states indicating that the THz-TDS is
suitable for probing increased number of vibrational states expected from molecular vibrations.

Advances in Terahertz Spectroscopy and Imaging (#413)
THE INTERNATIONAL CHEMICAL CONGRESS OF
PACIFIC BASIN SOCIETIES
Honolulu, Hawaii, USA DECEMBER 15 - 20, 2015
Dear Colleague:
It is our great pleasure to announce a symposium on “Advances in Terahertz Spectroscopy and Imaging” at the Pacifichem 2015 in Hawaii. Please see the link above for details. Contributions are solicited addressing subjects from all walks of terahertz applications. As an emerging area of science and technology, terahertz applications, such as spectroscopy, reflectometry and imaging, have the potential for addressing some of the critical problems of the 21st century. As indicated by increased attendance and number of papers in the past, the proposed symposium will fill a gap in the technical program by attracting the terahertz spectroscopy and related communities from all over the world. While there are other spectroscopic techniques, terahertz technology provides unique information that is not available from the predecessors.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

2. used for helmet are transparent to terahertz but a significant portion is also reflected from different layers of the target.
Therefore, measurements may be conducted both in reflection and in transmission. Here we have deployed both the
transmission and reflection measurements, where, the reflection kinetics is utilized for the deformation and velocity
profile computation and the transmission kinetics is deployed for determination of any change in mass due to impact.
Some details of the experimental setup were described elsewhere [3].
A series of live shot experiments were conducted at the Army Research Laboratory’s Survivability/Lethality Analysis
Directorate (Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD 21005) facility. Here, either a multi-layered panel or an actual helmet
(called “target” in Fig. 1) was mounted on a sturdy platform. The target was subjected to ballistic shots of pre-calculated
velocity. The kinetics spectra were captured in real-time.
Fig. 1. Deformation kinetics measurement system via terahertz reflectometry. The terahertz is generated by an
electro-optic dendrimer based CW source [4].
3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
3.1. Results of live firing test
The test results and findings are summarized in Table 1. This experiment yielded a bigger picture about the robustness
of the technique and sets the stage for a THz test protocol for trauma diagnosis. Two different kinds of panels and a
helmet (total 18 shots) were tested. Thus, the results demonstrate that the proposed terahertz technology is suitable for a
bio-marker-less diagnostic tool. Column 1 of Table 1 lists the number assigned to a particular live shot. Column 2
indicates the mode of measurement, i.e., either in reflection or in transmission, while Column 3 gives a brief description
about the nature of the short and related observation. The actual kinetics spectra corresponding to respective shots are
given in Table 2.
3.2. Computation of parameters
Once the maximum displacement is read off of the kinetics spectrum utilizing the calibration curve (not shown here), the
deformation propagation profile is calculated from the kinetics spectrum (see Fig. 2). From this profile the next most
important parameter to calculate is the velocity profile of deformation. Here the following boundary conditions are
utilized. Initially the target is at rest; therefore, the initial velocity, , is zero. As the deformation propagates, the
propagation accelerates and then at the maximum deformation the velocity is again zero. If the target recoils (in the
opposite direction), the velocity again increases and then comes to zero when the target stops at the relaxed position. So
one can utilize the fundamental physical principle, the Newton’s law for uniformly accelerated motion:
,
where, is the deformation (see Fig. 1), is the acceleration and is the time. Since
. Knowing the acceleration, , one can then determine the velocity, , from,

Table 1. Summary of observation of different shot experiment. Kinetics spectra are shown in Table 2. Each
shot was taken on a different panel on an unaffected region of the panel.
Shot# Mode Comment
201 Reflection Typical reflection kinetics spectrum of a multi-layered panel. The spectrum is used
for computing deformation and propagation profile, and other parameters. The
vibrations in the tail end of the spectrum (at 0.2s onward) are indicative of vibration
of the mounting platform.
202 Reflection Typical kinetics but two distinctly different slopes with an upward shift in the fast
decay region that indicates shaking of the mounting platform during the shot.
203 Reflection Typical kinetics acquired over a shorter period (0.3 s)
204 Reflection Two or more slopes in the fast decay region indicative of movement of composite
layers in groups (clusters) leading to subsequent delamination of internal layers.
205 Reflection Similar to shot 204 but a bigger variation in reflected intensity is indicative of a
bigger deformation depth.
207 Reflection Incomplete data due to data acquisition synchronization error
208 Reflection More than one slope in the fast decay region is indicative of movement of a cluster
of layers as opposed to the whole panel and subsequent delamination of internal
layers.
209 Reflection Typical kinetics similar to shot 204. Two or more slopes in the fast decay region
indicative of movement of composite layers in groups (or clusters) leading to
subsequent delamination of internal layers. See Fig. 2 for analysis.
210 Reflection This shot is on a helmet. The helmet was mounted with a clamp system that could
not be made very sturdy. So this spectrum cannot be interpreted unless further
helmet shot is taken
301 Transmission Incomplete data due to acquisition start error
302 Transmission Typical transmission kinetics except the initial portion was not captured due to
synchronization error in data acquisition. Some loss of mass due to the bullet shot
causes an increase of the transmitted intensity. A priori calibration of mass vs.
transmission may be used to quantify the loss of mass due to the ballistic event.
303 Transmission Typical transmission kinetics profile. Once calibrated with respect to transmission
vs. mass change for a given panel, this curve will quantify the loss of mass during
ballistic deformation.
304 Transmission This kinetics shows the flaw in mounting apparatus. The oscillatory nature of the
platform holding the panel is clearly visible
305 Transmission While this curve shows initial increase of power, indicative of mass loss due to
impact. However, the moving panel and its vibrations due to weak mounting are
responsible for the decrease in transmission.
306 Transmission Resembles a typical transmission kinetics spectrum. Once calibrated with respect
to transmission vs. mass change, this curve will quantify the change in mass during
ballistic deformation
307 Transmission This shot was done with BB ball instead of a bullet as was in the previous cases.
Kinetics was inconclusive due to vibration of the unstable mounting platform.
308 Transmission Also a BB ball shot. Transmission increased immediately after shot. The
oscillatory pattern is due to vibration of the mounting platform. However, the
transmission takes off towards the end because this shot actually went through the
panel creating a hole that caused the increased transmission.
309 Transmission Also a BB ball shot. This shot is very similar to typical transmission kinetics.
However, the BB ball got stuck in the panel that caused a sharp decrease in the
transmission.

Time (s)
Fig. 2 displays the calculated deformation profile from the kinetics spectrum (shot 209, Table 1) and the velocity profile
calculated from Eq. (1). Here the kinetics spectrum was de-noised with a curve-fitting routine and then a moving
average was adapted for calculating velocity profile. Since the deformation calibration for this sample was not done
ahead of time, the information available from a simultaneous digital image correlation (DIC) measurement [see
reference 2] was used to calculate the deformation profile. The velocity profile of Fig. 2 reveals that the deceleration of
the panel after the initial acceleration (between time 0.26s and ~0.28s) exhibit several small accelerations (indicated by
the upward shots or “kinks” in the blue curve) followed by small decelerations. This is indicative of the clusters of layers
are moving together as opposed to the whole panel; i.e., a few layers forming a cluster and being delaminated whose
motion is captured by the kinks in the velocity profile. Altogether 4 clusters are visible following the initial deceleration
of the panel. It is notable here that being able to apply the Newton’s law of motion lends credibility to the approach that
does not depend on any empirical formula.
Fig. 2. Analysis of shot 209 in Table 2. Deformation profile (left Y-axis) calculated from the kinetics spectrum with
a depth of 34 mm (from DIC under identical conditions). Calculated velocity profile of deformation is
shown in blue (right Y-axis).
4. CONCLUSIONS
Real-time terahertz reflection kinetics spectra of ballistic events have been used for determination of deformation profile
and velocity profile of deformation for layered materials used for making personal protective device such as helmet and
body armor. Live firing test data have been analyzed. The Newton’s law of motion for uniform acceleration was
deployed for the computation. The velocity thus experimentally determined provides ability for accurate calculation of
Sturdivan energy which then may be used for formulating criteria leading to non-invasive diagnosis of trauma/stigma
and/or concussion for less-than-lethal ballistic impact. In addition, change in mass of the trauma generating segment of
a helmet can be simultaneously determined from a priory calibration of the layered material from the transmission
kinetics spectrum.
