This paper applies the acoustical wave propagator technique to wave packet propagation in a one-dimensional stepped beam. The time-domain analytical solutions of this structure subjected to an initial-value problem with the specific Gaussian waveform were derived and compared with the predicted resu

โฆ Synopsis
A method is described by which instantaneous values of the response, the internal forces and the intensity in beams can be estimated as functions of time. The individual components of intensity which propagate in each direction and the components due to shear and moment can also be estimated. The estimates are provided in real time by digitally "ltering the outputs of an array of sensors. The digital "lters are designed in the frequency domain using a wave decomposition approach and reconstructed in the time domain as FIR "lters in this paper. The design and implementation process is described, numerical simulations of measurements in the far"eld performed and an experimental implementation presented. The method is relatively insensitive to sensor miscalibration and measurement noise compared to other approaches, and yields instantaneous estimates as well as time averages.

Using the modified time-domain traveling-wave algorithm, we investigate DFB lasers with uniform longitudinal-intensity distributions. It is shown that a uniform longitudinal-intensity distribution is effectively obtained by a combination of adding multiple phase shifts and varying coupling coefficie
