We present a numerical calculation of the heat transport in Bragg mirror configuration made materials that do not obey Fourier’s law conduction. The is are described by Cattaneo-Vernotte equation. By analyzing equation’s solutions, we define thermal wave surface impedance to design highly reflective mirrors. Even for mirrors with few layers, very high reflectance achieved (>90%). also system...

Electronic mirrors (E-mirrors) are camera-based mirrorless systems that have been considered as an alternative to conventional automotive rear-view mirrors. E-mirror location and size need be carefully determined provide safe preferred driving conditions. This study examined the effects of location, size, lane-change direction on lane change time, eye-off-road (EOR) mental workload, preference....

Optimized chirped mirrors may perform suboptimally, or completely fail to satisfy specifications, when manufacturing errors are encountered. We present a robust optimization method for designing these dispersion-compensating mirror systems that are used in ultrashort pulse lasers. Possible implementation errors in layer thickness are taken into account within an uncertainty set. The algorithm i...

The left hand side (or A–side) of this identity was a generating series for the numbers n(d) of rational curves of various degrees d lying on a smooth quintic hypersurface in P. The right hand side (B–side) was a certain hypergeometric function. The Mirror Identity states that the two functions become identical after an explicit change of variables which is defined as a quotient of two hypergeo...

Copyright © 2012 International Association for Dance Medicine & Science • www.iadms.org Mirrors have long been used as teaching tools in ballet instruction and have proven to be a potent element in affecting perceptual attitudes toward body image. Body image is the perception, thoughts, and feelings we have about our bodies.1 A dancer’s personal vision of her body image is an important part of ...
