The motivation to carry out this study stemmed from the generalized perception that nowadays youth lacks the skills for the 21st century.Especially the high-level competences like critical thinking, problem solving and autonomy.Several tools can help to improve these competences (e.g.the SCRATCH programming language), but, as researchers and educat
Axial Spacing Effects on Rotor-Rotor Interaction Noise and Vibration in a Contra-Rotating Fan
Because of the potential technical advantages, the contra-rotation technology has become a renewed interest in aviation and other applications.Contra-rotation increases efficiency in comparison with the single-rotor design, but this advantage is not fully harnessed.The axial spacing of two-stage contra-rotating blade rows has a significant impact o
A Machine Learning Specklegram Wavemeter (MaSWave) Based on a Short Section of Multimode Fiber as the Dispersive Element
Wavemeters are very important for precise and accurate measurements of both pulses and continuous-wave 9x11 pergola optical sources.Conventional wavemeters employ gratings, prisms, and other wavelength-sensitive devices in their design.Here, we report a simple and low-cost wavemeter based on a section of multimode fiber (MMF).The concept is to corr
