Earth’s gravitational force, g, has been known for centuries. But the exact value of G, the universal gravitational constant, ...

The MMA was a hybrid measurement system developed by Polytec in the early twenty-first century. Stroboscopic video microscopy ...

The "NEO Hunter" mission would use Blue Origin's Blue Ring spacecraft to deflect space rocks. This plan builds on NASA's successful DART mission, which proved an asteroid's path could be altered.

Abstract: The paper presents information on the digital image correlation system, a contactless measurement technique which provides data on displacements of the recorded surface of the tested object.

Abstract: Accurate characterization of surfaces using cantilever-based optical beam deflection (OBD) systems is crucial for obtaining the sample’s “true” topography and its corresponding material ...

NASA’s DART mission, the first-ever planetary defense test in space, sent a spacecraft to crash into an asteroid in 2022. That mission was a success. It showed that, in a hypothetical scenario where a ...

While working on validation examples for a material model, I encountered a behaviour I was not expecting. The setup involves a beam aligned with the x-axis that gets deflected in the y-direction due ...

In this video I take a look at five methods that can be used to predict how a beam will deform when loads are applied to it. These are the double integration method, Macaulay's method, the principle ...
