Fourier-based approaches to calculate the Fresnel diffraction of light provide one of the most efficient algorithms for holographic computations because this permits the use of the fast Fourier transform (FFT). This research overcomes the limitations on sampling imposed by Fourier-based algorithms by the development of a fast shifted Fresnel transform. This fast shifted Fresnel transform is used to develop a tiling approach to hologram construction and reconstruction, which computes the Fresnel propagation of light between parallel planes having different resolutions.
We report a nonrelativistic self-consistent, all-electron, local-density-functional calculation of the electronic structure of silver. The linear combination of Gaussian orbitals method is used. We present our results for the band structure, density of states, Fermi surface, Compton profiles, and optical conductivity. Our results are compared with experiments and with other calculations where possible.
End-tidal CO2 tension, pulmonary ventilation, and work output of respiratory muscles were determined in six normal subjects breathing various mixtures of carbon dioxide in air, with three graded resistances added to both inspiration and expiration. In two individuals, the resistances were also added separately to inspiration or expiration. A linear relationship was found between work output of inspiratory muscles and end-tidal CO2 tension; this relationship was uninfluenced by added resistance. No consistent relationship was observed between either ventilation or work output of expiratory muscles and end-tidal CO2 tension. These results suggest that carbon dioxide controls directly the activity of inspiratory muscles alone and that the activity of expiratory muscles is only coincidentally involved. The possible role of intrinsic properties of respiratory muscles and of nervous mediation in the control of breathing is discussed. Submitted on October 22, 1962
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
