Book Synopsis Tying Light in Knots by : David S Simon
Download or read book Tying Light in Knots written by David S Simon and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topology is the study of properties of geometrical objects that remain invariant as the object is bent, twisted, or otherwise continuously deformed. It has been an indispensable tool in particle physics and solid state physics for decades, but in recent years it has become increasingly relevant in classical and quantum optics as well. It makes appearances through such diverse phenomena as Pancharatnam-Berry phases, optical vortices and solitons, and optical simulations of solid-state topological phenomena. This book concisely provides the necessary mathematical background needed to understand these developments and to give a rapid survey of some of the optical applications where topological issues arise.

Download or read book Topology Optics written by SIMON and published by IOP Publishing Limited. This book was released on 2022-03-15 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topology is the study of properties that remain unchanged under bending, twisting, and stretching of a system. Long important in other areas of physics, topology has recently become a vital tool in optics and photonics as well, leading to a broad range of unexpected phenomena such as knotted and linked optical vortices and topologically protected states that are immune to environmental disruption. Topology in Optics: Tying Light in Knots (Second Edition) covers the background needed to follow these developments and provides a brief survey of topological effects in optics. Assuming only a background in physics at the advanced undergraduate level, it requires no prior familiarity with topology. Revised and expanded with two new chapters. Topological Photonics and Optical Knots and Links, this will be an invaluable reference for undergraduate and graduate students as well as researchers and engineers in optics and related areas.

Book excerpt: An acclaimed artist celebrates the creative possibilities of macramé and knots in this memoir and guide featuring projects and tutorials. Every day for a year, artist Windy Chien learned to tie a new kind of knot and then shared the results on Instagram—a project that both reinvented her life and revolutionized knot art. In The Year of Knots, Chien describes how knot-making led her on a path of discovery. She shares projects, tutorials, and transformative personal stories, all aimed at inspiring readers to make knotting—and creativity in general—part of a meditative daily practice. The knots in this book are gorgeously documented step-by-step. Knotted projects abound—from wall hangings to a necklace, a dog leash, a hanging light, and more.

Book Synopsis History and Science of Knots by : J C Turner
Download or read book History and Science of Knots written by J C Turner and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1996-05-30 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together twenty essays on diverse topics in the history and science of knots. It is divided into five parts, which deal respectively with knots in prehistory and antiquity, non-European traditions, working knots, the developing science of knots, and decorative and other aspects of knots. Its authors include archaeologists who write on knots found in digs of ancient sites (one describes the knots used by the recently discovered Ice Man); practical knotters who have studied the history and uses of knots at sea, for fishing and for various life support activities; a historian of lace; a computer scientist writing on computer classification of doilies; and mathematicians who describe the history of knot theories from the eighteenth century to the present day. In view of the explosion of mathematical theories of knots in the past decade, with consequential new and important scientific applications, this book is timely in setting down a brief, fragmentary history of mankind's oldest and most useful technical and decorative device — the knot.

Book excerpt: Are you looking for that one book to help you perfect the knot tying art to enable you make several kinds of knots for different purposes, whether as a sailor, rock climber, fisherman, or camper? If so, then read on... Knot Tying Book for Everyday Occasion amazingly has all you need; tips, techniques, guidelines, and graphical illustrations needed to make you feel like you are in a classroom where the art of rope knotting is taught. Are you perhaps just coming across rope knots for the first time? Have you probably gotten intimidated by the way some rope knots are made? Relax and know what this art entails. Trust me; you'll love it and feel more confident afterward. What does knot tying entail? Knot tying is an art that involves braiding ropes in ornate designs and structures. Knot tying serves several purposes apart from those tied to decoration. They could be used as hitches, bends, loop knots, splices, and so on. So, linking threads together will create knots. This step is produced by linking the end of one thread line called the working end through a circular loop. Then, you draw it tight to get the knot style mentioned earlier. However, the craft got better and more efficient over the years, causing many people to take the art as hobbies and jobs. Whether you want to tie a knot for your rock climbing adventure, to tie your tent while camping, your boat while sailing, to tie your package, or even for your home décor and usage, etc., your ability to master the art of tying knots can be a life-saving skill that could make the difference. Below is a sneak peek into what you will learn; 1. The historical information of knot tying 2. Application areas of knot tying 3. Terminologies used in knot tying 4. Choosing the right rope material for making knots 5. Tips and techniques that will set you on your way to becoming a knot tying expert 6. Caring for your rope and knots the right way and safety measures to adopt when handling them 7. 25 everyday knot tying projects (such as fisherman's knot, camping knot, hiking knot, sailing knot, etc.) with step-by-step instructions and graphical illustrations to get you started 8. Knot tying mistakes and FAQs to help you fix your knot tying mistakes, including having pre-informed knowledge of the most frequently asked knot tying questions. …And a whole lot more!
