Problems with OSLO Linux
Question I am currently trying OSLO for Linux, but I am experiencing some user interface problems (window control, graphics not being updated, crashing, ...etc.). Are you targeting a specific Linux distribution that will work better than others? Synopsis Problems with OSLO Linux Solution ...
LASRDBLT.LEN - A MONOCHROMATIC AIR-SPACED DOUBLET
Lasrdblt is the final design of the air-spaced doublet. The example here uses this design to illustrate the thermal analysis capabilities of OSLO. The lasrdblt.len file is the finished design from the air-spaced doublet study presented elsewhere. You can see from the ray analysis below that the...
