Optical beam deflection is a popular method to measure the deformation of micromechanical devices. As it measures mostly a local slope, its sensitivity depends on the location and size of the optical ...

Alison Gibbings and Massimiliano Vasile, aerospace engineers at the University of Strathclyde, UK, new solution is a 500-kilogram swarm of fingernail-sized spacecraft would, they calculate, deflect a ...

The following jupyter notebook was the final project for the introduction to numerical methods at columbia university. The project dealt with solving for beam deflection using numerical methods. In ...

Abstract: Aiming at the response delay problem in the liquid crystal optical phased array (LCOPA) system, this paper proposes a time-lagged liquid crystal optical phased array beam deflection control ...

Abstract: The beam deflection phenomenon of a transverse-flow discharge-excited CO/sub 2/ gas laser is studied by measuring the beam pattern with the rotating-wire method at gas velocities of 35-70 ...

The calculate_beam_properties function is a comprehensive tool designed for the structural analysis of beams in various configurations, including continuous beams with multiple spans, beams with ...
