Surface exchange coefficient (k) and bulk diffusion coefficient (D) are important properties to evaluate the performance of mixed ionic-electronic conducting (MIEC) ceramic oxides for use in energy conversion devices, such as solid oxide fuel cells. The values of k and D are usually estimated by a non-linear curve fitting procedure based on electrical conductivity relaxation (ECR) measurement. However, the rate-limiting mechanism (or the availability of k and D) and the experimental imperfections (such as flush delay for gaseous composition change, τf) are not reflected explicitly in the time–domain ECR data, and the accuracy of k and D demands a careful sensitivity analysis of the fitting error. Here, the distribution of characteristic times (DCT) converted from time–domain ECR data is proposed to overcome the above challenges. It is demonstrated that, from the DCT spectrum, the rate-limiting mechanism and the effect of τf are easily recognized, and the values of k, D and τf can be determined conjunctly. A strong robustness of determination of k and D is verified using noise-containing ECR data. The DCT spectrum opens up a way towards visible and credible determination of kinetic parameters of MIEC ceramic oxides.

In this paper Verma obtains a time‐domain solution by inverting the frequency‐domain solution given by Wait (1952). However, it has been recently pointed out by Singh (1973a) (see also Wait, 1973) that there is an error in the quasi‐static solution of Wait. Wait neglected the axially symmetric inducted electric current in the cylinder giving rise to a secondary transverse magnetic field outside (the n=0 term in the scattered wavefield). Singh (1973a) has shown that this term dominates. [It should be noted that Wait in his other works on the cylinder retains this term (e.g., Wait, 1959).] It is clear that this term would be dominant in the time‐domain also. This has been shown by Singh (1972, 1973b). Since the theoretical solution given by Verma in the paper under discussion is incomplete, his interpretation schemes are meaningless.

A practical technique is investigated for the determination of dynamic stresses in pipelines through the use of finite element method (FEM) and field measurement vibrations at selected points. Numerical simulation of a randomly loaded pipeline structure is used to establish the validity of the technique in the time domain. The analysis is carried out for a fixed-hinged pipe model. The results show that lack of coincidence between the vibration measurement points (VMPs) and the exciting force, or the use of only translational vibration measurements (TVMs) produce an approximate stress picture. The extent of the “error” in these cases is found to depend on the density of the VMPs and the proximity between these points and the exciting force location. A safety-related risk assessment is applied to find the minimum distance between measuring points that is needed to meet design codes reliability specifications.

This paper is devoted on the application of the computational method for calculating the transient electromagnetic (EM) near-field (NF) radiated by electronic structures from the frequency-dependent data for the arbitrary wave form perturbations i(t). The method proposed is based on the fast Fourier transform (FFT). The different steps illustrating the principle of the method is described. It is composed of three successive steps: the synchronization of the input excitation spectrum I(f) and the given frequency data H0(f), the convolution of the two inputs data and then, the determination of the time-domain emissions H(t). The feasibility of the method is verified with standard EM 3D simulations. In addition to this method, an extraction technique of the time-dependent z-transversal EM NF component Xz(t) from the frequency-dependent x- and y- longitudinal components Hx(f) and Hy(f) is also presented. This technique is based on the conjugation of the plane wave spectrum (PWS) transform and FFT. The feasibility of the method is verified with a set of dipole radiations. The method introduced in this paper is particularly useful for the investigation of time-domain emissions for EMC applications by considering transient EM interferences (EMIs).

Volcanic earthquakes of mount Merapi have been investigated periodically. The investigation aims to determine the hypocenter and epicenter of mount Merapi's volcanic earthquake using wave polarization analysis. The analysis was carried out in three domains, which are the time domain, the frequency domain, and the space domain. The analysis in the time domain was conducted by the arrival time of the volcanic earthquake, and the analysis in the frequency domain was done by observing the spectrum to get information on source frequency and bandwidth passed from polarization analysis, while the analysis in the space domain was conducted especially on hypocenter determination of the volcanic earthquakes. The analysis leads to the frequency of source 6 Hz and a bandwidth of 0.1 Hz. Thus, the hypocenter of volcanic earthquakes by polarization analysis was distributed to depth from 670 m to 3250 m from Merapi's top

The wave forces computed at the displaced position of offshore structures may introduce additional drift forces. This contribution is particularly significant for compliant offshore structures that are configured by design to experience large excursions under the environmental load effects, e.g., tension leg platform. In a random sea environment, this feature can be included in the time domain analysis by synthesizing drag and diffraction forces through a summation of a large number of harmonics with an appropriate phase relationship that reflects the platform displaced position. This approach is not only limited to the time domain analysis, but the superposition of a large number of trigonometric terms in such an analysis requires a considerable computational effort. This paper presents a computationally efficient procedure in both the time and frequency domains that permits inclusion of the time-dependent drift forces, introduced by the platform displacement, in terms of linear and nonlinear feedback contributions. These time-dependent feedback forces are expressed in terms of the applied wave loads by linear and quadratic transformations. It is demonstrated that the results obtained by this approach exhibit good agreement with the procedure based on the summation of trigonometric functions.
