The form of highly sloped surfaces has always been a challenging application for optical profilers using coherence scanned interferometry (CSI). In fact, highly sloped surfaces exist in almost every ...

Traditionally, the form of highly sloped surfaces has been challenging application for optical profilers using coherence scanning interferometry (CSI). Highly sloped surfaces exist in virtually all ...

A ‘slope’ on the ocean surface in the Strait of Gibraltar is lowering the sea level in Europe by 7cm, researchers have discovered. This research will help to more accurately predict future sea levels ...

This process yields a modified sun path from the point of view of the tilted surface. In the second step, the diffuse horizontal irradiance (DHI) is reduced based on the slope’s view factor to the sky ...

A self-healing slippery coating applied on the surface of an implanted medical device protects against infectious biofilm formation, say researchers. Implanted medical devices such as left ventricular ...

To a tiny insect, a pond’s still surface can present a daunting waterscape. To move from water to land, a water-walking creature may have to scale a steep, slippery slope—the curved edge where water ...
