Simulation of 3 Polarizing Plates

[JuneTheSecond]

I am now trying to play simulation of polarization plate on Visio drawing.
I confirmed myself some impressive phenomina through the real polarization plates,
and confirmed them through the simulation more accurate.
Please, enjoy with attatched Visio drawing.

Junichi is yet again shining light into the darkest recesses of Visio!

Illuminating!  ... and surprising.

Initial expectation was plate 2 / plate 3 at 90deg, no transmission.  Check.
Next expectation was plate 1 / plate3 at 90deg, no transmission.  But not true.  Is this correct???  Guess so.  Fascinating.

Next expectation was plate 1 / plate3 at 90deg, no transmission.  But not true.  Is this correct??? 

Do you mean "plate 1 / plate3 at 90deg" , and plate 2 at 0 degree?
I am not quite sure, but I think true in my experiment using real plates.

Sorry, I didn't explain that very well, but yes. 

For example, plate 1 @ -45 deg, plate 2 @ 0 degrees, and plate 3 @+45 deg.  Result makes sense upon further reflection (no pun intended).

So, this is also educational!

Thank you very much.
I've modified the above Visio drawing somewhere to show more detail.
But I am affraid I have not yet modified my error.

Please enjoy.

And I found a good refference video at
https://youtu.be/r1sZY826Qys .
I also happened to calculate like in that way in this video.

Videos were interesting and informative.

Nice.  We'll have to call you Professor!

I've moddified a little.
When a second sheet is at 90 degrees to the first sheet, strong light leaks a little.
I've added trancemittance factor at 90 degrees to that of at 0 degree.
