  2. Reflection lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_lines

    For example, the shiny surface of an automobile body is illuminated with reflection lines by surrounding the car with parallel light sources. Virtually, a surface can be rendered with reflection lines by modulating the surfaces point-wise color according to a simple calculation involving the surface normal , viewing direction and a square wave ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotations_and_reflections...

    First reflect a point P to its image P′ on the other side of line L 1. Then reflect P′ to its image P′′ on the other side of line L 2 . If lines L 1 and L 2 make an angle θ with one another, then points P and P′′ will make an angle 2 θ around point O , the intersection of L 1 and L 2 .

  4. Reflections of signals on conducting lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflections_of_signals_on...

    There are several approaches to understanding reflections, but the relationship of reflections to the conservation laws is particularly enlightening. A simple example is a step voltage, () (where is the height of the step and () is the unit step function with time ), applied to one end of a lossless line, and consider what happens when the line is terminated in various ways.

  5. Reflection (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_(mathematics)

    Point Q is the reflection of point P through the line AB. In a plane (or, respectively, 3-dimensional) geometry, to find the reflection of a point drop a perpendicular from the point to the line (plane) used for reflection, and extend it the same distance on the other side. To find the reflection of a figure, reflect each point in the figure.

    D 1h and C 2v: group of order 4 with a reflection in a plane and a 180° rotation about a line in that plane. D 1d and C 2h: group of order 4 with a reflection in a plane and a 180° rotation about a line perpendicular to that plane. For n = 2 there is not one main axis and two additional axes, but there are three equivalent ones.

  8. Oblique reflection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_reflection

    If the reference line L is perpendicular to the plane, one obtains the usual reflection. For example, consider the plane P to be the xy plane, that is, the plane given by the equation z=0 in Cartesian coordinates. Let the direction of the reference line L be given by the vector (a, b, c), with c≠0 (that is, L is not parallel to P).

    NASA Glenn Research Center, for example, used a mirror comprising a reflective aluminum surface on a metallic honeycomb [1] as a prototype reflector unit for a proposed power system for the International Space Station. One technology uses aluminum composite reflector panels, achieving over 93% reflectivity and coated with a speciality coating ...
