Combined Search for a Lorentz-Violating Force in Short-Range Gravity Varying as the Inverse Sixth Power of Distance

Precision measurements of the inverse-square law via experiments on short-range gravity provide sensitive tests of Lorentz symmetry. A combined analysis of data from experiments at the Huazhong University of Science and Technology and Indiana University sets simultaneous limits on all 22 coefficients for Lorentz violation correcting the Newton force law as the inverse sixth power of distance. Furthermore, results are consistent with no effect at the level of 10 –12 m 4 .

Plotting max/min data envelopes

Study of maximum and minimum load distributions along structural section is aided by visual display of load distribution data. Maximum/minimum envelope plot program plots these envelopes of the stresses and shear loads at selected points in beam modeled by series of finite elements. Digital output for engineers and management is presented for quick analysis and understanding.

Plotting shear-flow forces

Structural analysts can use computer program to study shear-flow and in-plane forces characteristic of quadrilateral panels subjected to different loading conditions. Digital outputs are presented for engineers and management, with various options to allow bulk of data to be analyzed quickly.

Finite-element structural analysis

Computer program aids in reduction and analysis of data. It determines critical loading conditions for critical values of reactions, applied loads, deflections, stresses, internal loads, etc. Input to program must be in one of specified three-part format.
