A composite photonic crystal that allows on-chip control over the emission direction of a semiconductor laser diode looks set to benefit mobile projection displays, lasers printers and chip-to-chip ...

Beam deflection is an essential consideration in engineering and construction projects. It refers to the amount a beam deforms or bends under the influence of external forces. Accurate calculation of ...

A 13-page engineering report in LaTeX that derives and determines the differential equation for the equation of the deflection curve of a simply supported beam under a uniform load and maximum ...

Abstract: In railway freight transport, the vertical deflection of the load-carrying beam on well-hole car accounts for most clearance intrusions at the bottom when running on curves. This paper ...

The integrations needed to determine beam deflections require the enforcement of the appropriate displacement and rotation boundary conditions (BCs). It is important that we be able to recognize these ...

The study of the deflection due to the passage of an axle on a pavement structure has the advantage to make possible to pronounce on the portance, the rigidity and the homogeneity of this one. In the ...
