Using the Monte Carlo method, the impact of the angular distribution of the electron source on the dose distribution for the 2.5 MeV ELV electron accelerator was explored. The experiment measured the 3-D dose distribution in the irradiation chamber for electron energies of 1.0 MeV and 2.5 MeV. The simulation used the MCNP6.2 code to evaluate three angular distribution models of the source: a mono-directional beam, a cone shape, and a triangular shape. Of the three models, the triangular shape with angles θ = 30°, φ = 0° best represents the angle of the scan hood through which the electron beam exits. The MCNP6.2 simulation results demonstrated that the triangular model is the most accurate representation of the angular distribution of the electron source for the 2.5 MeV ELV electron accelerator.

Spin distribution of dark matter halos in a cosmological N-body simulation is well fitted by a log-normal distribution, but the origin of the log-normal like shape is still unknown. To understand the evolution of spin and the origin of spin distribution, we have studied the change of the angular momentum of simulated halos through their merging histories. First, we traced merging histories of the dark matter halos and measured the probability distribution of the angular momentum changes from a series of simulations. We were able to fit the angular momentum changes with the Gaussian distribution in spaces of M, spin, ${\Delta}M$. Using the simulated merging trees and the distribution of angular momentum changes during the merging events, we can recover the spin distribution of halos over the various mass scales.

We measured thin films thickness sputtered from Cu target in the magnetron sputter system. Thin films thickness is thin as integration power in target is large. Cu thin films thickness in 100 kWh integration watt was decreased by 20% when that of beginning was compared. But the shape of thin films thickness distribution was same. For the calculation of thin films thickness distribution in the 100 kWh, the angular distribution data sputtered of Cu particles is necessary when Ar ions enter to inclined erosion surface of Cu target. We used the relation results of sputter yield and main angular distribution of sputtering particles emitted from Cu target published by G. Betz.

A convolution algorithm combined with Fourier transformation has been applied to the tomographic reconstruction of asymmetric soot structure to identify the local soot volume fraction distribution. Line-of-sight integrated data from light extinction measurement with multi-angular scanning formed basic information for the deconvolution. Multi-peak following interpolation technique was applied to obtain the effect of increasing number of scanning angles. Height-by-height reconstructed soot volume fraction distribution was compared with laser-induced incandescence signals.

Angular misalignment has a significant effect on the characteristics of angular contact ball bearings (ACBBs). This paper presents an analysis of fatigue life for ACBBs subjected to angular misalignment. A simulation model is developed with de Mul's bearing model and the ISO basic reference rating life model. Simulation is performed to calculate the life of the ACBBs subjected to angular misalignment. The numerical results show that angular misalignment influences the load distribution significantly, thus reducing the bearing rating life. The fatigue life of ACBBs is decreased by angular misalignment regardless of axial preload, external radial load and rotational speed. The results show that angular misalignment should be maintained at less than 1mrad for ACBBs.

We measured an anisotropy inhomogeniety and dispersion of rf sputterd permalloy thin films by TBP(Transverse Biased Permeability) measurement method. Angular distribution function had a shape similar to the Lorentzian distribution, but magnitude distribution function deviates from the sysmetric Lorentzian distribution because of long tail to the region of a high Hk value. With increasing film thickness, the angular and magnitude anisotropy dispersion increased. The increase of angular dispersion was due to both the increase of grain size and local anisotropy in thicker films.

In this paper, we investigate the zeros distribution and Borel direction for the solutions of linear homogeneous differential equation $f^{(n)}+A_{n-2}(z)f^{(n-2)}+{\cdots}+A_1(z)f'+A_0(z)f=0(n{\geq}2)$ in an angular domain. Especially, we establish a relation between a cluster ray of zeros and Borel direction.

Angular contact ball bearings are mainly used in the spindle, which requires high speed and stiffness. The heat generation is studied by experiments and simulations using a pair of angular contact ball bearings. The temperature variation of inner and outer races and the temperature increment distribution are measured by using thermocouples for the rotational speed, preload, viscosity of lubricant. The measured values from experiments are used to estimate the heat conduction rate. The method of oil-air lubrication is used for the experiment. The amount of conduction heat transfer to the test spindle and the convection heat transfer coefficients long the spindle are computed by using inverse method with temperature increment distribution. Total heat generation rate is estimated with the heat partition rate which is calculated from temperatures of inner and outer races. In addition, the empirical factor of oil-air lubrication method for Palmgren's heat generation model is suggested. The empirical friction coefficients, which are obtained from the experiments, depend on the preload condition, and can give us more accurate estimation of the heat generation in ball bearings.

The accurate evaluation of wind characteristics and wind-induced structural responses during a typhoon is of significant importance for bridge design and safety assessment. This paper presents an expectation maximization (EM) algorithm-based angular-linear approach for probabilistic modeling of field-measured wind characteristics. The proposed method has been applied to model the wind speed and direction data during typhoons recorded by the structural health monitoring (SHM) system instrumented on the arch Jiubao Bridge located in Hangzhou, China. In the summer of 2015, three typhoons, i.e., Typhoon Chan-hom, Typhoon Soudelor and Typhoon Goni, made landfall in the east of China and then struck the Jiubao Bridge. By analyzing the wind monitoring data such as the wind speed and direction measured by three anemometers during typhoons, the wind characteristics during typhoons are derived, including the average wind speed and direction, turbulence intensity, gust factor, turbulence integral scale, and power spectral density (PSD). An EM algorithm-based angular-linear modeling approach is proposed for modeling the joint distribution of the wind speed and direction. For the marginal distribution of the wind speed, the finite mixture of two-parameter Weibull distribution is employed, and the finite mixture of von Mises distribution is used to represent the wind direction. The parameters of each distribution model are estimated by use of the EM algorithm, and the optimal model is determined by the values of $R^2$ statistic and the Akaike's information criterion (AIC). The results indicate that the stochastic properties of the wind field around the bridge site during typhoons are effectively characterized by the proposed EM algorithm-based angular-linear modeling approach. The formulated joint distribution of the wind speed and direction can serve as a solid foundation for the purpose of accurately evaluating the typhoon-induced fatigue damage of long-span bridges.

In this work, we focus on the tumbling dynamics of rod-like and semi-flexible polymers in mixed flows, which vary from simple shear to pure rotation. By employing a bead-rod model, the tumbling pathways and periods are examined with a focus on the angular distribution of their orientation. Under the mixed flows, the tumbling dynamics agreed well with earlier studies and confirmed the predicted scaling laws. We found that the angular distribution deviates from that of shear flow as the flow type approaches pure rotation. Finally, we investigated the angular distribution of $\lambda$-DNA in a shear flow and found that the present numerical simulations were in quantitative agreement with the previous experimental data.
