Bearings do some of the heavy lifting in linear motion systems. Rather than defaulting to familiar choices by picking a size ...

Integrated motion control allows all kinds of robots to tackle a range of tasks with precision, in contrast with conventional ...

The decline of reading and the rise of social media are again transforming what it feels like to be a thinking person.

MIT researchers have developed a multi-material 3D-printing platform that can be used to fully print electric machines in a ...

MIT researchers have built a 3D-printing platform that can fabricate fully functional electric machines ...

Nonlinear phenomena are phenomena, which, in contrast to a linear system, cannot be explained by a mathematical relationship of proportionality (that is, a linear relationship between two variables).

NCDOT becomes the fourth statewide deployment of the solution through the Eastern Transportation Coalition (ETC), ...

Advances in motor design have allowed different types of robots to both specialize for industrial functions and converge in precision.

A broken motor in an automated machine can bring production on a busy factory floor to a halt. If engineers can't find a replacement part, they may have to order one from a distributor hundreds of ...

A team of EPFL researchers has developed an AI algorithm that can model complex dynamical processes while taking into account ...

As researchers around the world race toward the realization of 6G wireless communication systems, the need for antennas that can dynamically adapt to ever-changing signal environments has never been ...

Design engineers routinely rely on bolted joints, yet most guidance focuses on axial stiffness—often overlooking moment (pitch) stiffness, which can dominate compliance in ...
