Beams01:30

Beams

1.9K
Beams are integral components of structural engineering and construction, designed to support loads applied at various points along their length. These long, straight members can be classified based on geometry, cross-section, support type, and equilibrium condition.
Based on geometry, beams can be straight, tapered, or curved. Straight beams are the most common type and have a constant cross-section throughout their length. Tapered beams, on the other hand, have a varying cross-section along...

Fixed Action Patterns

17.7K
A fixed action pattern (FAP) is a specific, hard-wired sequence of behaviors that occurs in response to an external stimulus, called a sign stimulus. The behavior is “fixed” because it is essentially unchangeable—proceeding similarly across individuals of a species every time it occurs.

Deflection of a Beam

Accurately determining beam deflection and slope under various loading conditions in structural engineering is crucial for ensuring safety and structural integrity. Singularity functions offer a streamlined approach to analyzing beams, especially when multiple loading functions complicate the bending moment equation.
Singularity functions, described in an earlier lesson, are powerful mathematical tools that represent discontinuities within a function commonly encountered in structural loading...

Action Potential

4.7K
Neurons communicate by firing action potentials—the electrochemical signal that is propagated along the axon. The signal results in the release of neurotransmitters at axon terminals, thereby transmitting information to the nervous system. An action potential is a specific "all-or-none" change in membrane potential that results in a rapid spike in voltage.
Membrane potential in neurons
Neurons typically have a resting membrane potential of about -70 millivolts (mV). When they receive...

    Area of Science:

    • Nonlinear Optics
    • Photophysics
    • Spectroscopy

    Background:

    • Multiphoton absorption (MPA) is crucial for various applications but challenging to characterize due to low probabilities.
    • Existing methods using optical emission for nonlinear absorption characterization have limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • Introduce and validate two-beam constant emission intensity (2-BCEIn) spectroscopy for MPA characterization.
    • Investigate nonlinear absorption in crystal violet lactone (CVL) across a transition from two-photon to three-photon absorption.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed and applied 2-BCEIn spectroscopy, a novel technique for nonlinear absorption studies.
    • Studied CVL solutions at excitation wavelengths from 750 nm to 830 nm.
    • Utilized a kinetic model incorporating intrapulse excited-state absorption.

    Main Results:

    • 2-BCEIn spectroscopy directly measures local exponents, overcoming dynamic range limitations of nonlinear fluorescence excitation (NFE).
    • Demonstrated that nonlinear excitation of CVL at 800 nm involves more than simple two-photon and three-photon absorption.
