  2. Langmuir–Blodgett trough - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langmuir–Blodgett_trough

    For example, through devices fabricated from an LB trough Lee et al. [17] showed in 2006 that direct electron tunneling was the mode of transportation in alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers [18] Langmuir-Blodgett Troughs have unique advantages in nanoparticle deposition, making them capable of creating highly sophisticated coatings with ...

  3. Crest and trough - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crest_and_trough

    A trough is the opposite of a crest, so the minimum or lowest point of the wave. When the crests and troughs of two sine waves of equal amplitude and frequency intersect or collide, while being in phase with each other, the result is called constructive interference and the magnitudes double (above and below the line).

  4. Cnoidal wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cnoidal_wave

    However, we are looking for wave like solutions, with two elevations—the wave crest and trough (physics)—where the surface slope is zero. The conclusion is that all three roots of f(η) have to be real valued. Without loss of generality, it is assumed that the three real roots are ordered as:

  5. Galileo's Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment - Wikipedia

    The two sciences were the science of motion, which became the foundation-stone of physics, and the science of materials and construction, an important contribution to engineering. Galileo arrived at his hypothesis by a famous thought experiment outlined in his book On Motion. [14] He writes: Salviati. If then we take two bodies whose natural ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trough

    Trough (geology), a long depression less steep than a trench; Trough (meteorology), an elongated region of low atmospheric pressure; Trough (physics), the lowest point on a wave; Trough level (medicine), the lowest concentration of a medicine is present in the body over time; Langmuir-Blodgett trough, a laboratory instrument

  8. Parabolic trough - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_trough

    A parabolic trough collector (PTC) is a type of solar thermal collector that is straight in one dimension and curved as a parabola in the other two, lined with a polished metal mirror. The sunlight which enters the mirror parallel to its plane of symmetry is focused along the focal line , where objects are positioned that are intended to be heated.

  9. Node (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(physics)

    Fixed boundary: Examples of this type of boundary are the attachment point of a guitar string, the closed end of an open pipe like an organ pipe, or a woodwind pipe, the periphery of a drumhead, a transmission line with the end short circuited, or the mirrors at the ends of a laser cavity. In this type, the amplitude of the wave is forced to ...
