(Nanowerk Spotlight) All mechanical systems exhibit vibrational resonances, where energy transmission through the structure spikes at certain natural frequencies. This resonance effect stems from the ...
In science and engineering, it's unusual for innovation to come in one fell swoop. It's more often a painstaking plod through which the extraordinary gradually becomes ordinary. But we may be at an ...
In the sporting goods sector, consumers are willing to invest heavily in materials that combine both performance and sustainability. The Alliance for European Flax-Linen and Hemp, has reported an ...
Hydrin-brand ECO has a long history of use in automotive applications due its exceptional heat and oil resistance up to 150°C, while maintaining flexibility at low temperatures down to -50°C. While ...
Seco Tools Inc. has developed its Steadyline vibration damping shell mill holders that feature a passive dynamic damping system offering up to three times the rigidity of equivalent solid holders,.
Damping vibrations is crucial for precision experiments, for example in astronomy. A new invention uses a special kind of magnets to achieve this -- electropermanent magnets. They consist of a ...
Spring technology for damping is relatively old. Stagecoaches had leaf springs, early trains had large, crude, coil-spring buffers (to absorb shocks when cars bumped together) and early automobiles ...
Vibration-absorbing, sound-damping materials such as sheets of rubber and expanded foam tend to be thick, bulky and soft. A new material is a big exception to that tendency, however, as it absorbs ...
A collaboration between the University at Buffalo School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and the U.S. Air Force Research Lab (AFRL) has shown it’s possible to electronically tune the frequency ...
People regularly ask what the difference is between vibration damping and vibration isolation. These phrases can be used interchangeably sometimes, but they are distinct. TMC Sales and Applications ...
Scientists at Novosibirsk State Technical University (NTU) continue to develop a research area related to the prevention of aeroelastic vibrations of bridge spans and their elements, and propose ...
