Long-established in accelerator physics, bent crystals are now being explored as tools to measure the fundamental properties ...

Abstract: Accurate characterization of surfaces using cantilever-based optical beam deflection (OBD) systems is crucial for obtaining the sample’s “true” topography and its corresponding material ...

While working on validation examples for a material model, I encountered a behaviour I was not expecting. The setup involves a beam aligned with the x-axis that gets deflected in the y-direction due ...

Natural frequencies are important dynamic characteristics of a structure where they are required for the forced vibration analysis and solution of resonant response. Therefore, the exact solution to ...

In this video I take a look at five methods that can be used to predict how a beam will deform when loads are applied to it. These are the double integration method, Macaulay's method, the principle ...

The construction of concrete-filled steel tube tied-arch bridges typically employs the “beam first and arch later” methodology. In this approach, tie beams are initially constructed on temporary ...

Deflecting beams in Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero is an essential skill for players who want to master defensive strategies in high-stakes battles. Learning to deflect attacks not only protects your ...

Abstract: Position measurement methods based on optical beam deflection (OBD) require sensing of the displacement of a cantilever's tip. When the cantilever is scanned over a surface, the tip is ...
