Compressibility functions

If no Mollier diagram is available, it is more difficult to estimate the ideal work in compression or expansion processes. Schultz (1962) gives a method for the calculation of the polytropic work, based on two generalised compressibility functions, X and Y which supplement the familiar compressibility factor Z. 

It is worth to be noted that (1 /a)h (rja) is the result of the dilation of h (r) by the factor a in which the area under the curve is conserved. The result in reciprocal space is a compressed function H. This property of the Fourier transform is the generalization of Bragg s law. 

After having applied the time-frequency smearing operation one gets an excitation pattern representation of the audio signal in (dl 1 exc, seconds, Bark). This representation is then transformed to an internal representation using a non-linear compression function. The form of this compression function can be derived from loudness experiments. 

Figure 1.7 Overview of the basic transformations which are used in the development of the PAQM (Perceptual Audio Quality Measure). The signals x(t) and y t) are windowed with a window w(t) and then transformed to the frequency domain. The power spectra as function of time and frequency, Px (t, f) and Py(t, /) are transformed to power spectra as function of time and pitch, px(t, z) and py(t, z) which are convolved with the smearing function resulting in the excitations as a function of pitch Ex (/, z) ar 6Ey(t, z). After transformation with the compression function we get the internal representations x(f, z)and ,(, z) from which the average noise disturbance Cn over the audio fragment can be calculated.

Since public key operations are expensive, often a hash function—a cryptographic compression function—is applied to a long message or file before it is signed. In this... 

The simplest measure for conserving computer time would be to introduce unequal intervals. For a disk, for example, the Feldberg (1981) transformation Eq. 5.69 could be used in the z-direction (see Fig. 8.1). In the r-direction, points could be widely spaced near the origin but closely spaced on both sides of the disk edge (radius A compression function in r around rQ, similar to Eq. 5.69, is...

Nonlinear frequency compression compresses the frequency of the input signal and simultaneously preserves the speech feature such as formant ratio. The compression can be performed by applying a nonlinear frequency compression function to the input signal frequency [3, 4 6]. Higher frequency component will require more compression compared to the lower frequency component. The frequency compression function is given by...
