Residual strain and stress analysis by speckle interferometry combined with the drill of a groove
2007
A new method for residual stresses determination combining Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI) with the machining of a groove. The internal stress field is perturbed as the depth of the groove is increased incrementally [1]. The structure finds a new equilibrium state generating displacements which are measured using ESPI. This method was tested on an aluminium alloy plate treated locally by ultrasonic shot-peening. The investigation of the images obtained with the phase shifting technique and fringe patterns makes it possible to analyze, simultaneously, the stress profile along two directions: along the depth of the structure, and along the groove direction.
¿Por qué la literatura?
2021
In poetry, as well as in a good part of prose works, the rhythm of words is the music that governs reason and emotion. Literature occupies an important place in my creation. In this article I describe the different procedures in which I configure its presence in my music and the main themes in four of my works: Envoi, Como el viento, Maya and Transmutación.

Polarization mode dispersion and vectorial modulational instability in air silica microstructure fiber
2002
The birefringence of an air-silica microstructure fiber has been studied by measurement of the fiber polarization mode dispersion (PMD) over the wavelength range 545-640 nm. The experimental results are shown to be in good agreement with vectorial numerical calculations, assuming an elliptical core with an eccentricity of 7%. We also report controlled experiments studying nonlinear vectorial modulation instability in the fiber, yielding 3.9-THz modulational instability sideband shifts that are in good agreement with theoretical predictions based on the calculated fiber dispersion and PMD characteristics.
La Méthode como hermenéutica musical Homenaje a Edgar Morin por su 100º cumpleaños
2021
The present work addresses the principles and properties of the complex thought formulated by the French thinker Edgar Morin and the way in which he was able me to articulate his conception of organizational complexity with one of the most important theories of musical analysis, which emerged at the beginning of the 20th century: the schenkerian analysis. It is a review and extension of a few pages of my doctoral thesis, which are intended to pay tribute to who has been, in addition to my teacher, Honorary President of Itamar since its first issue. His teachings and support has always been the engine for my quest for musical organization. On July 21, 2021, Morin celebrated his 100th birthda…
Remote optical monitoring in remotely power assisted passive optical networks
2010
In this paper, the authors present the latest results on a simple and low cost method to achieve a dynamic and flexible network monitoring. By placing several fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) along the passive optical gigabit Ethernet infrastructure (GePON), the proposed modified optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) is able to monitor the entire system by simply tuning its working wavelength. Furthermore, the optical network terminals (ONT), at the end users premises, have been interconnected to the trunk via an innovative cable able to both carry the optical signal as well as the power supply.
Las comunidades de Castilla (1520-1522) como conflicto intraurbano. Sus peculiaridades en el contexto político europeo
2021
En 1520 y 1521 las ciudades castellanas fueron escenario de enconados conflictos políticos que dieron lugar a la introducción de radicales cambios en el régimen de gobierno local. Como consecuencia por primera vez dichas ciudades ofrecieron evidentes paralelismos con las de otros ámbitos de Europa, en particular las alemanas, en las que durante los siglos XIv y Xv y en la primera mitad del XvI proliferaron las revueltas y disputas por el poder político urbano, que con frecuencia conllevaron la introducción de cambios constitucionales de calado. En este artículo el autor se ocupa de la identificación de los principales paralelismos y divergencias, o singularidades, de las ciudades castellana…
Scaling guidelines of a soliton-based power limiter for 2R-optical regeneration applications
2010
International audience; In this work, we report scaling rules for the design of an all-fibered soliton-based power limiter for reamplification and reshaping (2R) regeneration process. In particular, we propose general guidelines to fix the optimum fiber length and initial power of the regenerator. We quantitatively point out the optical power limiting effect of the device enabling a significant reduction of the amplitude jitter of a degraded signal. Influence of the initial level of amplitude jitter is discussed and the results are compared with a self-phase modulation-based configuration working in the normal dispersion regime. Realistic numerical simulations in the context of 160 Gbit/s s…
Design of All-Normal Dispersion Microstructured Optical Fiber on Silica Platform for Generation of Pulse-Preserving Supercontinuum Under Excitation a…
2017
We investigated numerically the possibility of all normal dispersion fiber design for near-infrared supercontinuum generation based on a standard air-silica microstructure. The design procedure includes finding of target dispersion profile and subsequent finding of appropriate geometrical fiber design by inverse dispersion engineering. It was shown that the tailoring of dispersion profile could increase the spectral width of generated supercontinuum while maintaining perfect spectral flatness. Conditions necessary for wide and flat supercontinuum generation as well as restrictions imposed by chosen materials were discussed. As a result of design and optimization procedure, an air-silica des…
Polarization attraction using counter-propagating waves in optical fiber at telecommunication wavelengths
2008
International audience; In this work, we report the experimental observation of a polarization attraction process which can occur in optical fibers at telecommunication wavelengths. More precisely, we have numerically and experimentally shown that a polarization attractor, based on the injection of two counter-propagating waves around 1.55 mu m into a 2-m long high nonlinear fiber, can transform any input polarization state into a unique well-defined output polarization state.
