wave surface

To do this, a two-part lens is needed which has a waved surface at the junction between its two elements.

It features a slightly sloped wave surface that generates a smooth "barrel-less" wave.

Tetrahedroids generalize Fresnel's wave surface.

Huygen's theory of double refraction was that the propagation of light may be treated in terms of wave surface.

The small spaceship descended farther and was gliding just a few feet above the gently waving surface of the ocean in the direction of the shore.

When the bodyboarder detaches completely from the wave surface or the lip the trick is called an air roll or aerial roll.

Wave surfaces are special cases of tetrahedroids which are in turn special cases of Kummer surfaces.

If point source of light source imaged to be embedded within an isotropic substance like glass, it creates one wave surface, which is spherical in shape.

Second generation haptic actuator technologies include electroactive polymers, piezoelectric, electrostatic and subsonic audio wave surface actuation.

Other surface closely related to Kummer surfaces include Weddle surfaces, Wave surfaces, and tetrahedroids.

In mathematics, Fresnel's wave surface, found by Augustin-Jean Fresnel in 1821, is a quartic surface describing the propagation of light in an optically biaxial crystal.

FOLLOWING in the footsteps of many avant-garde photographers, the hard-edge painter Brendan Neiland is much interested in observing and painting reflections, very often on a curved or waving surface.

For every portion of earth has weight until it reaches the centre, and the jostling of parts greater and smaller would bring about not a waved surface, but rather compression and convergence of part and part until the centre is reached.

Majumdar found that a most general doubly anisotropic medium with tensor permittivity and tensor permeability with non-parallel principal axes could sometimes behave like an 'isotropic' or 'uniaxial' medium as far as the structure of the Fresnel wave surface is concerned.

An El Rollo (Spanish for "The Roll") is a bodyboarding trick performed when the bodyboarder hits the lip of the wave and uses its power to throw himself out with the lip in a perfect arc to complete a roll before landing on the wave surface or into the white water.
