  2. Beam tilt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_tilt

    Occasionally, mechanical and electrical tilt will be used together in order to create greater beam tilt in one direction than the other, mainly to accommodate unusual terrain. Along with null fill , beam tilt is the essential parameter controlling the focus of radio communications , and together they can create almost infinite combinations of 3 ...

  3. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflection_(engineering)

    The deflection of beam elements is usually calculated on the basis of the Euler–Bernoulli beam equation while that of a plate or shell element is calculated using plate or shell theory. An example of the use of deflection in this context is in building construction. Architects and engineers select materials for various applications.

  4. Kikuchi lines (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Kikuchi lines in a convergent beam diffraction pattern of single crystal silicon taken with a 300 keV electron beam. The figure on the left shows the Kikuchi lines leading to a silicon [100] zone, taken with the beam direction approximately 7.9° away from the zone along the (004) Kikuchi band.

  5. Gaussian beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_beam

    The shape of a Gaussian beam of a given wavelength λ is governed solely by one parameter, the beam waist w 0. This is a measure of the beam size at the point of its focus (z = 0 in the above equations) where the beam width w(z) (as defined above) is the smallest (and likewise where the intensity on-axis (r = 0) is the largest). From this ...

  6. Sector antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sector_antenna

    Typical GSM sector antenna outdoor unit. A sector antenna is a type of directional microwave antenna with a sector-shaped radiation pattern.The word "sector" is used in the geometric sense; some portion of the circumference of a circle measured in degrees of arc. 60°, 90° and 120° designs are typical, often with a few degrees 'extra' to ensure overlap and mounted in multiples when wider or ...

  7. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Bernoulli_beam_theory

    Euler–Bernoulli beam theory (also known as engineer's beam theory or classical beam theory) [1] is a simplification of the linear theory of elasticity which provides a means of calculating the load-carrying and deflection characteristics of beams. It covers the case corresponding to small deflections of a beam that is subjected to lateral ...

  8. Bending - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending

    For example, a closet rod sagging under the weight of clothes on clothes hangers is an example of a beam experiencing bending. On the other hand, a shell is a structure of any geometric form where the length and the width are of the same order of magnitude but the thickness of the structure (known as the 'wall') is considerably smaller.

  9. Deformation (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deformation_(engineering)

    An example of a material with a large plastic deformation range is wet chewing gum, which can be stretched to dozens of times its original length. Under tensile stress, plastic deformation is characterized by a strain hardening region and a necking region and finally, fracture (also called rupture).
