    2d Confusion Fft
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the confusion surrounding the differences between 2D FFT and 2D DFT in image transforms, particularly regarding a perceived distortion in one of the transforms. The user notes that the distortion arises from discontinuous lines in the grid-copied image, contrasting with the continuous lines in other transforms. They seek clarification on the relationship between these discontinuities and the resulting distortion. A reference to a resource on rotation and edge effects is provided, suggesting that these factors may contribute to the observed differences. Understanding these concepts is crucial for accurately interpreting image transformations in the context of Fourier analysis.

Confusion with 2D DFT

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to figure out why the third transform in the picture I attach here is different to the other ones, why it's 'distorted'. I know that it's related with the fact that if you copy the image in a grid the resulting image has discontinuous lines, unlike the other two transforms where the resulting lines are continuous, but I can't see the relation with the distortion.

Thank you for any help!

Could it just be a bug in your code?
 

Thread 'What happens if shielded cable has a short to the shield?'

While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
