Shadows have been integral to humanity’s exploration of light and its properties. From their depiction in ancient shadow ...

Say we consider a beam made up of thin layers (laminae) aligned with the longitudinal axis of the beam, and for which the laminae can slide with respect to each other along the longitudinal axis as ...

Radar is one of the most useful tools for scanning our skies above. Sometimes, though, things that normally slide under the ...

We may have found a way to stave off armageddon. Spanish Scientists might have made it infinitely easier to spot space rocks ...

Degree Capital (TURN) noted that its portfolio company, Brightcove (BCOV), announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to be ...

The weight of the beam pushes straight down on the piers. The beam itself must be strong so that it doesn't bend under its own weight and the added weight of crossing traffic. When a load pushes ...

When a 'beam' experiences a bending moment it will change its shape and internal stresses (forces) will be developed. The photograph illustrates the shape change of elements of a beam in bending. Note ...

The mast of a ship, the pole of a sign post, the frame of a car, the bulkheads in an aircraft, and the plank of a seesaw are among the countless examples of beams. In most cases the bending loads are ...

Below are punch and die configurations used to provide a variety of bends for sheet metals: Folding: Sides of the sheet are clamped, then the bend beam extends between the clamps and creases the sheet ...

The principle is simple: laser beams, if they are powerful enough ... To make sure the channel stayed open long enough to bend lightning during a storm, scientists developed a laser able to ...
