DeformableMirror models both the mechanical dynamics and the optical effects (applied OPD) of a deformable mirror. Actuator geometries, influence functions, and slaving relationships are generally specified using AoTool, and passed in via a parameter of type DMModel. The mirror actuators are modeled as critically damped harmonic oscillators. An idealized sensor (actually just a delay) measures the actuator positions and makes them available as an output. DeformableMirror is a composite system, consisting of three subsystems, of types DMOptics, ActuatorDynamics, and Delay.
