Mode vertical

In actual operation in the contact mode, the tip touches the surface like the stylus of a record player. In the non-contact mode, the cantilever is oscillated at a frequency close to the resonance frequency with a large amplitude. In this mode, vertical long-range forces are probed, whereas lateral forces (friction-like forces in the plane of the sample surface) are almost non-effective. These forces have been employed in lateral force microscopy (LFM). 

For the VA mode or MVA mode, vertical alignment is realized by using polymer materials without prior rubbing treatment. 

In the future, it is expected to be possible to make more routine use of additional wave types, specifically shear or S waves (polarised to horizontal and vertical components) which have a transverse mode of propagation, and are sensitive to a different set of rock properties than P waves. The potential then exists for increasing the number of independent attributes measured in reflection surveys and increasing the resolution of the subsurface image. 

It can be observed from the Figure 1 that the sensitivity of I.I. system is quite low at lower thicknesses and improves as the thicknesses increase. Further the sensitivity is low in case of as observed images compared to processed images. This can be attributed to the quantum fluctuations in the number of photons received and also to the electronic and screen noise. Integration of the images reduces this noise by a factor of N where N is the number of frames. Another observation of interest from the experiment was that if the orientation of the wires was horizontal there was a decrease in the observed sensitivity. It can be observed from the contrast response curves that the response for defect detection is better in magnified modes compared to normal mode of the II tube. Further, it can be observed that the vertical resolution is better compared to horizontal which is in line with prediction by the sensitivity curves. 

In case of some samples besides the cross sectional CT-slice also a projectional image is of interest. In these cases the test mode Digital Radiography (DR) is applied. In the DR-mode the object is not turned, but scanned horizontally and vertically. Again the very high dynamic of the detector and the mechanical accuracy of the complete system are of large benefit to the image quality. 

The transverse modes are labelled TEM , where TEM stands for transverse electric and magnetic (field) m and I are integers that refer to the number of vertical and horizontal... 

In fossil fuel-fired boilers there are two regions defined by the mode of heat transfer. Fuel is burned in the furnace or radiant section of the boiler. The walls of this section of the boiler are constmcted of vertical, or near vertical, tubes in which water is boiled. Heat is transferred radiatively from the fire to the waterwaH of the boiler. When the hot gas leaves the radiant section of the boiler, it goes to the convective section. In the convective section, heat is transferred to tubes in the gas path. Superheating and reheating are in the convective section of the boiler. The economizer, which can be considered as a gas-heated feedwater heater, is the last element in the convective zone of the boiler. 

Figure 4 DynDom [67] analysis of the first two normal modes of human lysozyme. Dark grey and white indicate the two dynamic domains, separated by the black hinge bending region. The vertical line represents a hinge axis that produces a closure motion in the first normal mode. The horizontal line represents a hinge axis that produces a twisting motion in the second normal mode. (Adapted from Ref. 68.)

Different processes like eddy turbulence, bottom current, stagnation of flows, and storm-water events can be simulated, using either laminar or turbulent flow model for simulation. All processes are displayed in real-time graphical mode (history, contour graph, surface, etc.) you can also record them to data files. Thanks to innovative sparse matrix technology, calculation process is fast and stable a large number of layers in vertical and horizontal directions can be used, as well as a small time step. You can hunt for these on the Web. 

The sensors function in a pulse-echo mode that allows the direct measurement of stand-off, from which short and long axes of the borehole diameter are computed. The vertical resolution is 1 in. (25 mm) and accuracy of the diameter measurement is 0.1 in. (2.5 mm). 

A clear understanding of the mode shape, or shaft deflection, of a machine s rotating element is a valuable diagnostic tool. Both broadband and narrowband filtered energy windows can be used at each measurement point and orientation across the machine. The resultant plots, one in the vertical plane and one in the horizontal plane, provide an approximation of the mode shape of the complete machine and its rotating element. 

The overall energy from the filtered broadband plotted against measurement location provides an approximation of the mode shape of the installed machine. Figure 44.31 illustrates a vertical broadband plot taken from a Spencer blower. Note that the motor appears to be flexing in the vertical direction. Extremely high amplitudes are present in the motor s outboard bearing and the amplitudes decrease at subsequent measurement points across the machine. 

A mode curve exhibiting this shape could indicate that the motor mountings, or the baseplate under the motor, are loose and that the motor is moving vertically. In fact, in the example from which this figure was taken, this is exactly what was happening. The blower s baseplate floats on a one-inch thick cork pad, which is normally an acceptable practice. However, in this example, an inlet filter/silencer was mounted without support directly to the inlet located on the right end of the machine. The weight of the filter/silencer compressed the cork pad under the blower, which lifted the motor-end of the baseplate off of the cork pad. In this mode, the motor has complete freedom of movement in the vertical plane. In effect, it...
