It should be noted, however, that the new subtitle of the present volume may be somewhat misleading, since this book also treats (in Chapters 10 and 11) moiré effects between repetitive layers, which are, in fact, geometric transformations of periodic layers, that are generally no longer periodic in themselves.
Background and basic notions.- Moiré minimization.- The moiré profile form and intensity levels.- The algebraic foundation of the spectrum properties.- Fourier-based interpretation of the algebraic spectrum properties.- The superposition phase.- Macro- and microstructures in the superposition.- Polychromatic moiré effects.- Moirés between repetitive, non-periodic layers.- Other possible approaches for moiré analysis.
