In tins article we study the possibility of designing storage rings with a reduced by two or more orders of magnitude with respect to existing rings, thus making the bunch length shorter by a factor of 10 or more . We will, with an appropriate design, show that this bunch length reduction can be achieved while simultaneously increasing the beam peak current. With this approach one can increase ...

A method to predict the column size for displacement based design of reinforced concrete frame buildings with higher target inter storey drift is reported here. The column depth derived from empirical relation as a function of given beam section, target inter-story drift, building plan features and common displacement based design parameters is used. Regarding the high drift requirement, a mini...

This article addresses the design of PID, I-PD and PD-PI controller for the ball and beam system. The ball and beam system, a non linear one, has been linearised around the equilibrium point to obtain the linearised model transfer function. The PID controller has been tuned using ITAE criterion and the same set of parameters has been utilized for designing both the I-PD and PD-PI controller. Th...

A new method of designing horn-fed frequency scanning holographic antenna is proposed. The artificial surface design of holographic antenna is based on generalized law of reflection. The input admittance is utilized to construct the interference pattern of the surface which is intervened by the excitation wave and the required radiation wave. The scalar admittance unit cell which is composed of...

A new concept of micromachines has been developed for measuring the mechanical properties of thin metallic films. The actuator is a beam undergoing large internal stresses built up during the deposition process. Al thin films are deposited partly on the actuator beam and on the substrate. By etching the structure, the actuator contracts and pulls the Al film. Full stress strain curves can be ge...

This paper presents the improvement of design efficiency of machine tool structure in the conceptual and basic design stage. An interactive system has been developed for designing machine tool structure in this study. The key point in the interactive system is that a set of beam elements are assumed to compose the total structure of machine tool because it is easy to analyze the static, dynamic...

Spatial structure of a light beam is an important degree of freedom to be extensively explored. By designing simple configurations with phase-only spatial light modulators (SLMs), we show the ability to arbitrarily manipulate the spatial full field information (i.e. amplitude and phase) of a light beam. Using this approach to facilitating arbitrary and independent control of spatial amplitude a...

Numerical simulation codes are basic tools for designing Free Electron Lasers (FEL). They are used to study the impact of di!erent parameters, e.g. wiggler errors and external focusing, which allow FEL users to optimize the performance. For faster execution some simulation codes assume radial symmetry or decompose the radiation "eld into a few azimuthal modes, although then this treatment does ...

In this paper, an electrically tunable reflectarray metasurface for two dimensional (2D) beam steering is designed by integration of a thin layer of indium tin oxide (ITO) material into a metalinsulator-metal (MIM) plasmonic unit-cell. The reflectarray is composed of square-shaped patch nanoantennas placed on a stack of insulator-ITO-metallic ground plane. The resonant characteristic of unit-ce...

An ionization cooling channel is a tightly spaced lattice containing absorbers for reducing the momentum of the muon beam, rf cavities for restoring the momentum and strong solenoids for focusing the beam. Such a lattice is an essential feature of most designs for Neutrino Factories and Muon Colliders. Here, we explore three different approaches for designing ionization cooling channels with pe...
