What is a real life example of a mechanical wave? What type of waves are electromagnetic waves? Is a surface wave a whole different type of wave, or is it a transverse wave? Explain. What happens when a transverse wave encounters a loose end? What are waves produced by? What makes shea...
Mechanism of mechanical transverse wave in solids I am not sure, but below is my attempt. In solids the force between adjacent atoms/molecules is very strong. So, when a part of the solid medium is displaced perpendicular to the solid medium like a rope, the atoms/particles in the medium...
(This example uses the “fracture-label” technique.) (D) L-type calcium channels are demonstrated by freeze-fracture immunogold labeling to be organized as clusters in the plasma membrane (arrows); (“label-fracture” technique). For further information on the methods in freeze-fracture ...
1.1. VIBRATION OF A TAUT STRING 1 1.138J/2.062J/18.376J, WAVE PROPAGATION Fall, 2004 MIT Notes by C. C. Mei CHAPTER 1. SAMPLE WAVE PROBLEMS To describe a problem in mathematical terms, one must make use of the basic laws that govern the elements of the problem. In continuum mechanics...
Soft tissue is nearly-incompressible (λ ≫μ), implying that the quasi-longitudinal wave speed is nearly constant over all directions of a NITI medium. The anisotropy of longitudinal wave propagation in cornea has been recently shown to be very weak, with angular variations in the quasi-...
(z = 0.6 cm) we can take advantage of different geometries according to the specific application. For example, the SFC is the ideal geometry in the clinical investigation of elongated anatomical areas (RF strip), such as muscles, limbs, or spines, while the SBC is more useful when a ...
wave THz output power by incorporating more photomixers. For this purpose, the spatial structures of the optical and THz E-fields are designed to enhance THz power and radiation in the far field. Simulations of 2 to 4 dipole antennas are conducted, demonstrating an improvement in antenna gain ...
