Numerical Calculations

1.2K
In engineering applications, the representation of the numerical value is critical. Presenting or reporting the answer is one of the essential parts of engineering practices. Numerical calculations are performed using handheld calculators or computers since numerically accurate answers are always preferred.
The solution to a problem is obtained using different methods. While manually solving algebraic symbols is one of the most common methods, the graphical method is often preferred. Computers...

Alkali Metals03:06

Alkali Metals

25.0K
Group 1 elements are soft and shiny metallic solids. They are malleable, ductile, and good conductors of heat and electricity. The melting points of the alkali metals are unusually low for metals and decrease going down the group, while the density increases going down the group with the exception of potassium (Table 1).

Pilot and Numeric Relaying01:21

Pilot and Numeric Relaying

496
Pilot relaying is a type of differential protection used in power systems. It compares electrical quantities at the terminals of equipment via a communication channel instead of direct relay interconnection. This method is essential for transmission lines where the terminals are far apart, typically up to 80 km for lines with 69 to 115 kV ratings. Four types of communication channels are used for pilot relaying:

How Data are Classified: Numerical Data

38.4K
Data that are countable or measurable in specific units are called numerical or quantitative data. Quantitative data are always numbers. Quantitative data are the result of counting or measuring the attributes of a population. Amount of money, pulse rate, weight, number of people living in a town, and number of students who opt for statistics are examples of quantitative data.
Quantitative data may be either discrete or continuous. All quantitative data that take on only specific numerical...

Bonding in Metals02:32

Bonding in Metals

52.9K
Metallic bonds are formed between two metal atoms. A simplified model to describe metallic bonding has been developed by Paul Drüde called the “Electron Sea Model”.

Metallic Solids02:37

Metallic Solids

20.9K
Metallic solids such as crystals of copper, aluminum, and iron are formed by metal atoms. The structure of metallic crystals is often described as a uniform distribution of atomic nuclei within a “sea” of delocalized electrons. The atoms within such a metallic solid are held together by a unique force known as metallic bonding that gives rise to many useful and varied bulk properties.
All metallic solids exhibit high thermal and electrical conductivity, metallic luster, and malleability....

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Metal-clad waveguides (MCWG) enable deeper probing depth for label-free imaging of thick biological samples, overcoming the shallow limitations of surface plasmon resonance (SPR). MCWG offer an improved balance between imaging resolution and probing depth.

    Area of Science:

    • Biophotonics
    • Biosensing
    • Microscopy

    Background:

    • Evanescent-field techniques like surface plasmon resonance (SPR) excel at label-free imaging of biological samples near surfaces.
    • However, SPR's shallow probing depth (~200 nm) limits its utility for thicker specimens like cells and bacteria.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate metal-clad waveguides (MCWG) as an alternative to SPR for enhanced imaging depth.
    • To compare the imaging spatial resolution and probing depth capabilities of MCWG against various SPR configurations.

    Main Methods:

    • Numerical simulations were performed to compare SPR, long-range SPR, and MCWG for imaging spatial resolution versus probing depth.
    • Experimental validation was conducted using synthetic targets and live cell imaging.

    Main Results:

    • MCWG demonstrated a superior compromise between resolution and probing depth for imaging thicker biological objects compared to SPR.
    • Numerical simulations were corroborated by experimental results, showcasing MCWG's imaging capabilities.

    Conclusions:

    • MCWG offer a promising advancement for label-free imaging of relatively thick biological samples.
    • This method overcomes the depth limitations of traditional SPR while maintaining high spatial resolution.
