Laser beam forming has emerged as a viable technique to form sheet metal by thermal residual stresses. Although it has been a subject of many studies, its full industrial application is not yet established. This article aims to complement the existing research in the area of laser forming in order to gain a better understanding of the process. A numerical investigation of laser forming of stain...

In this paper altitude measurement from water surface using laser beam is presented. Research data indicate that the reflection of infrared waves from water surface is about zero and it is less than 2% for visible radiations. Phase-shift and heterodyne technique was used for the measurement, and the laser beam ( mW p nm 10 , 700 = = l ) was modulated by a sine wave having a fixed frequency....

Laser is one of the sources that induce a biological effect in higher plants. The positive effect of laser on some crops has been proved. This research was carried out to study the effect of laser radiation on the accumulation of proline in spring wheat (Triticum aestivum cv. Kavir) under different NaCl treatment levels. Semi-coherent red beam, infrared beam and one-second harmonics of Neodymiu...

The authors performed a review of the literature to evaluate the efficacy of low level laser therapy (LLLT) for the treatment of temporomandibular disorders (TMD). Selection criteria included: 1) human subjects, 2) articles written in English, and 3) randomized placebo-controlled trials. Evaluation was performed according to the CONSORT 2010 criteria. A total of 14 articles were included in the...

Laser forming is a modern process which is mainly used for forming metals. Different Lasers are used in this regard that includes Nd: YAG and CO2. In this study, forming bi-layer sheets of Aluminum/Ceramic by Laser was investigated. Furthermore, effect of Uniform and Gaussian heat flux distribution in different power, velocity, and beam diameters on bending angle was studied. FEM simulation ind...

An accurate optical sensing system has been developed to measure the position and orientation of a laser beam in two dimensions. The system is useful for evaluation of the accuracy of hand-held laser microsurgical instruments. The apparatus uses a lens and a beam-splitter to receive the incoming laser beam. Two position sensitive detectors placed at different distances from the beam splitter ma...

For planar laser diagnostics, a most uniform beam profile is highly desirable for two reasons: first, subsequent corrections for an inhomogeneous intensity distribution are time consuming and prevent on-line engineering assessment and second, temporal fluctuations cannot be corrected anyway. However, in general for combustion and flow diagnostics pulsed laser sources are used to achieve a high ...

the aim of this project is to fabricated an aluminium-copper bimetal through the fusion method and examine its performance. an aluminium-copper-aluminium bimetal was built by the laser cladding method. the laser power as well as the annealing time effects on its interfacial properties of the bonding’s formed through the laser cladding were investigated. to fabricate the multilayer bimetal, the ...
