We have determined the relativistic light deflection of the quasar J0842+1835 as Jupiter passed within 3.7 on 2002 September 8, by measuring the time delay using the VLBA and Effelsberg radio telescopes at 8.4 GHz. At closest approach, General Relativity (GR) predicts a radial (static) deflection of 1190 μarcsec, and tangential (retarded or dynamic) deflection in the direction of Jupiter’s moti...

1. Abstract This paper concerns with the identification of multiple cracks in a beam by measurements of the damage-induced variations in the static deflection of the beam under a prescribed load condition. Each crack is simulated by an equivalent linear elastic rotational spring connecting the two adjacent segments of the beam. Sufficient conditions on the static measurements which allow for th...

It is well known that bimetallic microcantilevers can exhibit static deflection as a result of thermal effects, including exothermic adsorption of chemicals on their surfaces. It is shown here that the resonance frequency of a cantilever can change due to a combination of mass loading and change of spring constant resulting from adsorption of chemicals on the surface. Cantilevers also undergo s...

Abstract: Capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) multilayer membrane plays an important role in the performance metrics including the transmitting efficiency and the receiving sensitivity. However, there are few studies of the multilayer membranes. Some analytical models simplify the multilayer membrane as monolayer, which results in inaccuracies. This paper presents a new analyt...

in this paper, the capabilities of displacement curvature derived from static response data for finding the location and severity of damage in euler-bernoulli beams are assessed. static response of a beam is obtained using the finite element modeling. in order to reduce the number of measured nodal displacements, the beam deflection is fitted through a polynomial function using a limited number...

Deflection of light due to massive objects was predicted by Einstein in his General Theory Relativity. This deflection has been calculated many researchers past, for spherically symmetric objects. But, reality, most these gravitating are not spherical instead they ellipsoidal ( oblate) shape. The objective the present work is study theoretically effect this ellipticity on trajectory a ray. Here...

One of the major problems in Optical Burst Switching (OBS) networks is burst contention. Deflection routing is used to resolve the contention problem. Burst Loss ratio (BLR) is the ratio of the lost bursts to the total sent bursts from the transmitter to the receiver. Burst retransmission is used to reduce the BLR by retransmitting dropped bursts. Previous research papers show that combining de...

functionally gradedpoisson’s ratio structures have been developed for critical protection. in thispaper, the static bending and buckling of fgpr nanoscale beam are studied basedon the nonlocal timoshenko beam model, in which both young’s modulus andpoisson’s ratio are assumed to vary continuously in the thickness direction. byutilizing total potential energy principle, equilibrium equations are...

In noncommutative QED photons present self-interactions in the form of triple and quartic interactions. The triple interaction implies that, even though the photon is electrically neutral, it will deflect when in the presence of an electromagnetic field. If detected, such deflection would be an undoubted signal of noncommutative space-time. In this work we derive the general expression of the d...
