Roughness Measurements with Polychromatic Speckles on Tilted Surfaces [PDF]
Nanomanufacturing and Metrology, 2021 AbstractSurface light scattering enables contactless and fast measurements of surface roughness. A surface inclination alters the direction of the scattering beam and thus the measured surface roughness is calculated from the detected intensity distribution. Hence, an accurate sensor–surface alignment is necessary. In order to achieve tilt-independent

Near-Fault Tilted Deformation of Buildings Associated with Coseismic Surface Ruptures in the Shenxigou Section, 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan Earthquake, Eastern Tibet [PDF]
LithosphereThe coseismic surface ruptures associated with large earthquakes contribute to severe damage to near-fault buildings through fault deformation. However, previous studies simplified geological conditions and were based mainly on numerical and physical ...

Oscillatory motion of viscoelastic drops on slippery lubricated surfaces
Communications Physics, 2022 Water droplets move smoothly at a constant speed down an inclined tilted slippery lubricated surface. Here, droplets of polymer fluids are shown to exhibit for the same homogenous surface an oscillatory motion down the slope due to the viscoelastic ...

Investigation on Surface Tilting in the Failure Process of Shallow Landslides [PDF]
Sensors, 2020 In recent decades, early warning systems to predict the occurrence of landslides using tilt sensors have been developed and employed in slope monitoring due to their low cost and simple installation. Although many studies have been carried out to validate the efficiency of these early warning systems, few studies have been carried out to investigate ...

Estimation of the Diffused Solar Irradiation on the Tilted Plane of Photovoltaic Solar Panels
Memoria Investigaciones en Ingeniería, 2023 Solar energy, in the recent decades has gained a great attention due to its clean, simple and easy adaptable process. The effective utilization of solar energy is possible only if proper data of incident solar radiation is available. There are number of

Influence of a stereo surface on the perceived tilt of a monocular line [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 2001 This study addressed the issue of how a stereo-specified surface influences the perceived two-dimensional orientation of a monocularly viewed line. In a series of three experiments, it was found that, in general, when a monocular line was embedded in a disparity field specifying a planar surface slanted about the horizontal axis, the tilt of the line ...

GPR survey to reveal a possible tectonic tilt of the Brežice Sava River Terrace in the Krško Basin
Geologija, 2021 It has been supposed that the Brežice Sava River Terrace (BSRT) is tectonically disturbed near the town of Brežice and tilted to the north. To confirm this tectonically induced tilt in a quantitative sense, low-frequency Ground Penetration Radar (GPR ...
