Fixed-guided beam

Explain how you can use the equation for the deflection of a fixed-guided beam subjected to a point load on the guided end to derive the equation for the deflection of a fixed-fixed beam subjected to a point load at its center. 

The folded springs are comprised of fixed-guided beams that are connected in parallel and in series, as shown in Figure 3.8.

The top mirror support is four springs acting in series. Each individual spring is comprised of a set of three fixed-guides beams connected end-to-end and acting in parallel. 

The bending moment is determined from standard beam diagrams for different types of beam, snch as fixed end beam (cantilever), guided end, simply supported end, partial distribnted load, and their various combinations. We will consider only maximum bending moment, which results in a board failure, and only for four types of load application to the board resting on two supports with the distance (span) L between them ...

For fixed-guided cantilever beams, the spring constant for each beam would be... 

In practice, recording transmission spectra at obliqne angles of incidence reqnires special accessories, as determined by the geometry of the radiation beam in the sample compartment of the spectrometer (i) the beam can be focnsed at the center of the sample compartment or (ii) on the entrance slit. One of the simplest accessories for both reflection and transmission measurements is shown in Fig. 4.4 [9]. It consists of a plateau (3) fixed in the sample compartment, a system of plane guiding mirrors (1 and 2), the sample (4), and directing mirrors (5). 

An instrument designed to detect the presence or concentration of combustible gases or vapors in the atmosphere. It is usually calibrated to indicate the concentration of a gas as a percentage of its Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) so that a reading of 100 percent indicates that the LEL limit has been reached. They use either a solid-state circuit, infrared (IR) beam electrochemical or duel catalytic bead for the detection of gas in an area. Portable monitors are used for personnel protection, and fixed installations are provided for property protection. The Instrument Society of America (ISA) has provided a guideline for combustible gas detector utilization, ISA TR 12.13.03, Guide for Combustible Gas Detection as a Method of Protection. 

A schematic sketch of the sample deposition setup is shown in Fig. 3.12. After mass selection by means of the QMS (see Sect. 3.1.2) the clusters leave the QMS trough an exit lens attached to the QMS body. In an UHV chamber cross (2 x 10 mbar without deposition, 5 x 10 mbar during deposition) the cluster beam is then guided through aAfo shield (5) with an aperture of 9 mm (fixed on a grounded Cu feedthrough...
