Oral History Interview with Farrell Kluttz, January 6, 2006
No full textThe National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Farrell L. Kluttz. Kluttz joined the Navy in December 1937. His first assignment was aboard the USS Downes (DD-375). In 1939, he was transferred to the USS John D. Edwards (DD-216) on Asia Station. His enlistment ended the day before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. Kluttz was in San Francisco then. he elected to stay in the Navy and was assigned to the commissioning crew of the USS Electra (AKA-4) in Tampa, Florida. They delivered some Marines to New Zealand in mid 1942 and made the North Africa landing later in November. Kluttz was aboard when the Electra was torpedoed and returned to South Carolina with he in April 1943. When he returned, Kluttz attended fire control school and graduated as a Chief Firecontrolman. He served at Newport, Rhode Island getting several sailors qualified to go aboard the soon-to-be commissioned USS Franklin (CV-13). Kluttz was aboard the Franklin when is suffered the bomb hits in March, 1945. He abandoned ship off the fantail and was rescued out of the water by the USS Hunt (DD-674). Kluttz was located by the captain of the Franklin and went back aboard at Ulithi. He was aboard the Franklin at Brooklyn when the war ended. During the Korean War, Kluttz served aboard the USS Waller (DD-466)

The Modelling of Primary Alkaline Battery Cathodes: A Simplified Model for porous manganese oxide particle discharge
No full textA simplified model, to that produced previously by the authors, for the galvanostatic discharge of primary alkaline battery cathodes is presented. Laplace transform and perturbation methods are employed to obtain the leading order spatial and temporal behaviour of the porous cathode over two distinct size scales. It is shown that for a wide range of industrially relevant discharge conditions the time taken for KOH electrolyte to diffuse into a porous electrolytic manganese dioxide particle is fast compared with the cathodic discharge time and that ohmic losses within the graphite phase of the cathode can be considered to be negligible. Numerical solution of the simplified model equations is discussed and the results are validated against relevant experimental data
Pulse-pumping of cascaded Raman fibre amplifiers
No full textIn this thesis, I investigate cascaded Raman fibre amplifiers (RFAs) pumped with shaped optical pulses delivered from a Yb doped fibre MOPA source. RFAs offer the potential to generate gain at any arbitrary wavelength with an appropriate pump source, limited only by the fibre’s transparency range. The use of a counter-propagating signal and pump creates a continuous gain, despite the instantaneous nature of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS). A high power Yb doped fibre source emitting around the 1050 to 1100 nm region offers a flexible pump source that can in principle be used to generate gain for any signal from ~1100 to 2000 nm in a silica-based fibre via cascaded SRS. This opens up opportunities for an ultrabroadband amplifier with unmatched spectral width. Furthermore, by using a pump source that is in a MOPA configuration there is a high degree of control over the output characteristics which offers the potential of near-instantaneous electronic control of ultra-broadband Raman gain spectra. In the simplest configuration, cascaded Raman wavelength shifting across a wide range of wavelengths using single-level pump pulses (i.e., approximate super-Gaussian pulses) is investigated. Using a silica-based highly nonlinear fibre (HNLF), cascaded Raman wavelength shifting up to seven Stokes orders is demonstrated and counter-propagating gain measurements are made across all seven Stokes orders. From a pump wavelength of 1064 nm, the peak gain of the 7th Stokes order was ~1575 nm which demonstrated the potential for gain covering more than 500 nm. I believe this is the first time such a measurement has been undertaken. Other fibre types were also studied for comparison. Furthermore, the noise performance and gain saturation properties of cascaded RFAs were investigated, as well. In a more advanced configuration, the Raman gain spectra produced from pumping the HNLF with step-shaped pump pulses are investigated. Such pulses consist of multiple levels with different, controllable, instantaneous powers. By adjusting the power of each step appropriately I show that different parts of the pulse transfer their energy to different Stokes orders, leading to a controllable gain spectrum covering multiple Stokes orders at the same time. I further study how the gain spectrum can be controlled by manipulating the individual duty cycle of each section of the step-shaped pump pulses as well as using multiple pump wavelengths in a time-division multiplexed pumping scheme. Single and dual wavelength pumping of various fibres with step-shaped pulses was experimentally demonstrated. Raman gain spectra spanning two and three Stokes orders and covering over 100 nm were realised. Computer simulations are also carried out for pumping with more than two pump wavelengths and for gain spectra targeting gain simultaneously up to seven Stokes orders and covering up to ~500 nm. This shows that the use of step-shaped pulses and multiple pump wavelengths allow for further increase and control of the useable bandwidth
