Dose distributions for (left) an uncollimated plan and (centre) a plan with apertures for proton therapy of an optic glioma; the right panel shows the dose differences. The use of apertures reduces ...

Current satellite communication systems use static beams, with little or no options of adjusting beam capacity to a varying demand. Beam hopping, based on the DVB-S2X broadcasting standard, allows ...

Optical scintillation imaging is proving feasible as a quality assurance (QA) tool for small static beams and for pre-treatment verification of radiosurgery and volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) ...

Working with WORK Microwave and Eutelsat, the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits (IIS) has successfully demonstrated beam hopping in an over-the-air test for the first time. Current ...

Yongcui Mi has developed a new technology that enables real-time shaping and control of laser beams for laser welding and directed energy deposition using laser and wire. The innovation is based on ...

This course presents the fundamental principles of structural analysis, determination of reactions, internal forces and deflections under the static load conditions. The course is mainly focused to ...

This month the cost and research departments of Mott Green Wall and Davis Langdon & Everest examine the costs and specification of chilled ceilings and beams in collaboration with specialists Trox and ...

Tractor beams sound like science fiction straight out of “Star Trek,” but one U.K.-based researcher is showing off how you could make your own using a 3D printer. Short for “attractor” beams, the ...
