Abstract:
A novel numerical iterative approach is proposed to effectively eliminate the zero-order term and to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the reconstructed image in off-axis digital holography. The iterations are conducted in the spatial domain, resulting in considerable reduction in the computational time and avoiding the subjectivity involved in selecting a filter window in spectral domain. These advantages promote the application of this approach in real-time detection processes. The feasibility of this approach is confirmed by mathematical deductions and numerical simulations, and the robustness of the proposed approach is tested by means of an experimentally obtained hologram.

Routh-Hurwitz Criterion II
The first scenario occurs when a singular zero appears in the first column of the Routh table. This situation creates a division by zero issues. To resolve this, a small positive or negative number, denoted as epsilon (∈), is substituted for the zero. The stability analysis proceeds by assuming a sign for ∈. If ∈ is positive, any sign change in the first...

Drug clearance depends on the rate of drug elimination and its plasma concentration. Another important parameter is a drug's half-life, which is the time required for its concentration to decrease by half. In most cases, drug clearance follows first-order...
