Selected figures from the moiré book

This site provides the original PostScript or PDF files of selected figures from the two volumes of the book The Theory of the Moiré Phenomenon by I. Amidror. It includes:

• Several key figures from the book.

• Figures that have been significantly size reduced in the printed book. These figures are given here in their original unreduced size, so that small details may be more clearly visible than in the book.

• Figures in which a dynamic visualization of the moiré effects is particularly beneficial. These figures are provided here in the form of separate layers that can be individually printed on transparencies. By superposing them manually you will obtain a vivid illustration of the moiré dynamics in the superposition.

The PostScript or PDF files provided here may be downloaded and printed on any standard printer of at least 600 dpi. Note, however, that these files contain complete figures from the book, and unlike the sample files in the accompanying didactic moiré demonstration kit they are not intended to be modified for testing the effect of different parameter configurations.
