Agora 14th of September
all,
continue working with Rhino3D. We are going to start where we left last week and
I will show you (or better to say I hope to show you) some rendering tips and
tricks.
with your own laptop…It would be nice that you try by yourself to re-do the
same design we did last time, and I encourage you ask as many questions as
possible if you have faced some problem.
later
Agora 7th of September
Deal all,
In the next Agora we will discuss in a more deep way how to use Rhinoceros 3D. We are going to design a small optical setup.
In particular, in this session, I will show you how to place optical and optomeccanic component and give them some material property to get a nice rendering.
Next Agora Session (Wednesday 5 /1/2011 )
Dear all
In the next Agora session we are going to continue to discuss the last part of the previous paper.
Kind regards
Alessandro
Next Agora Session ( Wednesday @ 12.30 h)
Dear all,
in the next Agora session I would like to discuss about interferometric measurement of the temperature dependence of an index of refraction.
I found a recent paper about it by Dupouy at al. from the Univerisite’ de Toulouse, in which they explain their methods in order to do that:

please have a look at the first 4 paragraphs so we can discuss about it during the meeting.
ciao,

Schlieren Interferometry
In the next agora session (it will be on Thursday 2nd of December, food will be provided) we start a new subject entitled Schlieren interferometry.
This type of interferometry is interesting to measure temperature and velocity of fluids.
Therefore, I suggest you to start reading the following paper:
Schlieren interferometry. An Optical Methods for determining temperature and velocity distribution in liquids
J.Bruce Brackenridge and W.Paul Gilbert, vol. 4, No. 7, 819, 1965 Applied Optics.
