We discuss the use of nonconventional optical processors for generating irradiance distributions, which are useful for visualizing the characteristics of imaging devices that extend the depth of field. Our discussion starts with the use of binary masks for generating nonconventional irradiance distributions, which display the variations of the impu...

The instability of sliding causes deterioration of performance characteristics of tribosystems and is undesired. To predict its occurrence, the motion of a body of a one-degree-of-freedom system with friction is investigated about the steady sliding equilibrium position. The motion equation is formulated with the friction coefficient dependent on t...

In this chapter, we introduce the concept of wavefront engineering by discussing the use binary masks, which generate irradiance distributions capable of displaying the variations of the impulse response with changes of optical path difference (OPD). In this way, one has a visual guide for engineering the influence of wavefront variations on the irradiance impulse response, if you will on the irradiance point spread function (PSF).
