Quadrangular Prism of Self-invisibility (ii)
نویسنده
چکیده
A kind of novel pillar (used to support a windshield) has been designed to replace the conventional ones used in all sorts of vehicles. The prominent advantage of such a pillar is that it appears invisible so that the blind spots caused by A, B, C and D pillars will be diminished to a large extent or even eliminated completely. Therefore, the driver’s view is enlarged considerably. An intrinsic disadvantage of the new pillar, directionality and the invisibility rate with respect to the deviation from most-clear position, were investigated quantitatively and discussed.

A Quadrangular Prism of Self Invisibility
A quadrangular prism of self-invisibility is originally reported in this paper. It is a self-invisible unit, which does not depend on any outer refractive materials or reflective mirrors. Four identical triangular prisms with the lateral faces of mirrors, divided into two groups, are symmetrically placed on two transparent rectangular prisms in a symmetrical way. Two identical rectangular prism...
متن کاملFurther Research on the Quadrangular Prism of Self-invisibility (i)
A quadrangular prism of self-invisibility has been further researched for its applications to vehicles. Its structure has been calculated and demonstrated strictly and quantitatively, according to the laws of reflection of light and geometric principles. Furthermore, the invisible effect with respect to the position of an observed point was investigated when the observed point shifted from the ...
متن کاملError estimation of a quadratic finite volume method on right quadrangular prism grids
In this paper, we develop a finite volume element method with affine quadratic bases on right quadrangular prismmeshes for three-dimensional elliptic boundary value problems. The optimal H1-norm error estimate of second order accuracy is proved under certain assumptions about themeshes. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the theoretical analysis. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reser...
متن کاملExperiencing Microaggression: Invisibility, Distress, and Self-Stereotyping Among Northeasterners in India
In the present times, the discrimination experiences of various marginalized groups tend to be characterized by subtle acts of disrespect and intolerance in addition to the traditional and more blatant incidents of violence. One such newer manifestation is microaggression. This research explored the impact of frequency of experiencing invisibility (i.e., feeling ignored or overlooked owing to o...
متن کاملThe benign online disinhibition effect: Could situational factors induce self-disclosure and prosocial behaviors?
The current study, which focuses on the benign effects of disinhibition, was designed as a continuation of an earlier study conducted on the toxic effects of online disinhibition (LapidotLefler & Barak, 2012). Using a factorial design, the study examined the effects of three online situational factors—anonymity, invisibility, and lack of eye contact—on inducing self-disclosure and prosocial beh...
