When thermal simulation software isn't available, or for quicker results, designers can apply linear superposition to model the thermal performance of their power systems. This article is the ...

An online-only MIT certificate course explores the role of model-based systems engineering in today’s work environment.

Modeling a railroad is hard. Railroads are large, linear pieces of civil engineering. So many modelers are drawn to the smallest scale they can use. Recently a new scale, named T, at 1:450 has been… ...

Nonlinear systems come in all shapes and sizes. Linear dynamics is a useful abstraction, but if you look long enough at any real system you consider linear, you will discover nonlinearities. It ...

Launching things with electromagnetism is pretty fun, with linear induction motors being a popular design that finds use from everywhere in hobby designs like [Tom Stanton]’s to the electroma… ...
