The Dynamic Allan Variance V: Recent Advances in Dynamic Stability Analysis
Abstract:
The dynamic Allan variance (DAVAR) measures the stability variations of precise clocks and oscillators. When an anomaly occurs, the DAVAR changes with time, its shape depending on the anomaly. In this work, we first discuss our current knowledge about the DAVAR, by focusing on the meaning of dynamic stability. Then, we extend our knowledge by obtaining additional properties of the DAVAR. Furthermore, we visually investigate the DAVAR for the main anomalies of precise clocks and oscillators. Finally, we review a variety of applications based on the DAVAR.

Pole and System Stability
Simple poles are unique roots of the denominator polynomial. Each simple pole corresponds to a distinct solution to the system's characteristic equation, typically resulting in exponential decay terms in the system's...

Dynamic Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete
The sonic test is a common method to determine the dynamic modulus. In this test, a concrete beam, sized either 6 x 6 x 30 inches or 4 x 4 x 20 inches, is clamped at its center. Vibrations are initiated at one end of the beam by an electromagnetic exciter unit powered by a...
