Correction methods for underwater scan data measured by general-purpose laser range finders
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015 We propose a method that corrects effects of refractions and absorptions for underwater scan data obtained by general-purpose laser range finders (LRFs) using HOKUYO UTM-30LX (Top-URG). For measurements by LRFs in water, it is known that refractions make

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a scalable and colored low‐emissivity (low‐e) paint achieved by spraying an ultrathin n‐doped poly(benzodifurandione) (n‐PBDF) coating onto various colored substrates. The low‐e paint enhances thermal regulation by reducing mid‐infrared thermal emissivity to 0.19, thereby stabilizing indoor temperatures across diverse climates ...

Generalized laws of reflection and refraction from transformation optics
, 2012 Based on transformation optics, we introduce another set of generalized laws of reflection and refraction (differs from that of [Science 334, 333 (2011)]), through which a transformation media slab is derived as a meta-surface, producing anomalous ...

Finding the water refractive index in a swimming pool using a ruler
Revista Brasileira de Ensino de FísicaWhen a swimming pool is filled with water, the tiles covering its walls appear to have smaller vertical dimensions than the real ones, due to the refraction of light from the water into the air.

On the conical refraction of hydromagnetic waves in plasma with anisotropic thermal pressure
, 1995 A phenomenon analogous to the conical refraction widely known in the crystalooptics and crystaloacoustics is discovered for the magnetohydrodynamical waves in the collisionless plasma with anisotropic thermal pressure.
