One of the main goals of CoRoT Natal Team is the determination of rotation period for thousand of stars, a fundamental parameter for the study of stellar evolutionary histories. In order to estimate the rotation period of stars and to understand the associated uncertainties resulting, for example, from discontinuities in the curves and (or) low signal-to-noise ratio, we have compared three different methods for light curves treatment. These methods were applied to many light curves with different characteristics. First, a Visual Analysis was undertaken for each light curve, giving a general perspective on the different phenomena reflected in the curves. The results obtained by this method regarding the rotation period of the star, the presence of spots, or the star nature (binary system or other) were then compared with those obtained by two accurate methods: the CLEANest method, based on the DCDFT (Date Compensated Discrete Fourier Transform), and the Wavelet method, based on the Wavelet Transform. Our results show that all three methods have similar levels of accuracy and can complement each other. Nevertheless, the Wavelet method gives more information about the star, from the wavelet map, showing the variations of frequencies over time in the signal. Finally, we discuss the limitations of these methods, the efficiency to give us informations about the star and the development of tools to integrate different methods into a single analysis

In this work we presented an exhibition of the mathematical theory of orthogonal compact support wavelets in the context of multiresoluction analysis. These are particularly attractive wavelets because they lead to a stable and very efficient algorithm, that is Fast Transform Wavelet (FWT). One of our objectives is to develop efficient algorithms for calculating the coefficients wavelet (FWT) through the pyramid algorithm of Mallat and to discuss his connection with filters Banks. We also studied the concept of multiresoluction analysis, that is the context in that wavelets can be understood and built naturally, taking an important step in the change from the Mathematical universe (Continuous Domain) for the Universe of the representation (Discret Domain)

This work presents an analysis of the wavelet-Galerkin method for one-dimensional elastoplastic-damage problems. Time-stepping algorithm for non-linear dynamics is presented. Numerical treatment of the constitutive models is developed by the use of return-mapping algorithm. For spacial discretization we can use wavelet-Galerkin method instead of standard finite element method. This approach allows to locate singularities. The discrete formulation developed can be applied to the simulation of one-dimensional problems for elastic-plastic-damage models. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
A combined wavelet-element free Galerkin method for numerical calculations of electromagnetic fields
Resumo:
A combined wavelet-element free Galerkin (EFG) method is proposed for solving electromagnetic EM) field problems. The bridging scales are used to preserve the consistency and linear independence properties of the entire bases. A detailed description of the development of the discrete model and its numerical implementations is given to facilitate the reader to. understand the proposed algorithm. A numerical example to validate the proposed method is also reported.

Essa dissertação tem por objetivo analisar a influência de famílias wavelets e suas ordens no desempenho de um algoritmo de localização de faltas a partir das ondas viajantes de dois terminais de uma linha de transmissão aérea. Tornou-se objetivo secundário a modelagem de um sistema elétrico de potência (SEP) para obtenção de um universo de faltas que validassem o localizador. Para isso, parte de um SEP da Eletrobrás-Eletronorte em 500/230 kV foi modelado no Alternative Transient Program (ATP) utilizando-se parâmetros reais. A Transformada Wavelet, via análise multiresolução (AMR), é empregada valendo-se de sua característica de localização temporal, permitindo caracterizações precisas de instantes de transitórios eletromagnéticos ocasionados por faltas, as quais geram ondas que ao se propagarem em direção aos terminais da linha contêm os tempos de propagação destas do local do defeito a tais terminais e podem ser convenientemente extraídos por tal transformada. Pela metodologia adotada no algoritmo, a diferença entre esses tempos determina com boa exatidão o local de ocorrência da falta sobre a linha. Entretanto, um dos agentes variantes do erro nessa estimação é a escolha da Wavelet usada na AMR dos sinais, sendo, portanto, a avaliação dessa escolha sobre o erro, objetivo principal do trabalho, justificada pela ainda inexistente fundamentação científica que garanta a escolha de uma wavelet ótima a uma certa aplicação. Dentre um leque de Wavelets discretas, obtiveram-se resultados adequados para 16 delas, havendo erros máximos inferiores aos 250 metros estipulados para a precisão. Duas Wavelets, a Db15 e a Sym17, sobressaíram-se ao errarem, respectivamente, 3,5 e 1,1 vezes menos que as demais. A metodologia empregada consta da: exportação dos dados das faltas do ATP para o MATLAB®; aplicação da transformação modal de Clarke; decomposição dos modos alfa e síntese dos níveis 1 de detalhes via AMR; cálculo de suas máximas magnitudes e determinação dos índices temporais; e por fim, a teoria das ondas viajantes equaciona e estima o local do defeito sobre a LT, sendo tudo isso programado no MATLAB e os erros de localização analisados estatisticamente no Microsoft Excell®. Ao final elaborou-se ainda uma GUI (Guide User Interface) para a Interface Homem-Máquina (IHM) do localizador, servindo também para análises gráficas de qualquer das contingências aplicadas ao SEP. Os resultados alcançados demonstram uma otimização de performance em razão da escolha da wavelet mais adequada ao algoritmo e norteiam para uma aplicação prática do localizador.

The role of the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNPr) and superior colliculus (SC) network in rat strains susceptible to audiogenic seizures still remain underexplored in epileptology. In a previous study from our laboratory, the GABAergic drugs bicuculline (BIC) and muscimol (MUS) were microinjected into the deep layers of either the anterior SC (aSC) or the posterior SC (pSC) in animals of the Wistar audiogenic rat (WAR) strain submitted to acoustic stimulation, in which simultaneous electroencephalographic (EEG) recording of the aSC, pSC, SNPr and striatum was performed. Only MUS microinjected into the pSC blocked audiogenic seizures. In the present study, we expanded upon these previous results using the retrograde tracer Fluorogold (FG) microinjected into the aSC and pSC in conjunction with quantitative EEG analysis (wavelet transform), in the search for mechanisms associated with the susceptibility of this inbred strain to acoustic stimulation. Our hypothesis was that the WAR strain would have different connectivity between specific subareas of the superior colliculus and the SNPr when compared with resistant Wistar animals and that these connections would lead to altered behavior of this network during audiogenic seizures. Wavelet analysis showed that the only treatment with an anticonvulsant effect was MUS microinjected into the pSC region, and this treatment induced a sustained oscillation in the theta band only in the SNPr and in the pSC. These data suggest that in WAR animals, there are at least two subcortical loops and that the one involved in audiogenic seizure susceptibility appears to be the pSC-SNPr circuit. We also found that WARs presented an increase in the number of FG + projections from the posterior SNPr to both the aSC and pSC (primarily to the pSC), with both acting as proconvulsant nuclei when compared with Wistar rats. We concluded that these two different subcortical loops within the basal ganglia are probably a consequence of the WAR genetic background. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
