Scientists develop a highly efficient material that transforms light and moisture into precise mechanical movements and ...

The purpose of a watch is just not limited to updating time, it also comes with its own style statement which helps in ...

Precision of rotational and linear measurement underpins motion control systems, and optical encoders are a mainstay in delivering this. Converting mechanical motion into digital signals enables ...

Researchers have created a triboelectric device that converts mechanical energy from pomelo peels into electricity, acting as ...

Passersby couldn’t help but be mesmerized by a curious contraption on display at Clippard’s booth at MD&M West 2025. The ...

Essentially, chemical energy is converted into mechanical motion by biasing the Brownian motion. The DNA-nanoparticle motor uses the 'burnt-bridge' Brownian ratchet mechanism. In this type of ...

Seven years ago, researchers caught an unexpected phenomenon on film: A pool of red dye that somehow 'knew' how to solve a maze filled with milk. Propelled forward by a couple drops of soap, it ...

While entanglement has been demonstrated in very small particles, University of Chicago scientists are thinking big, ...

Abstract: The proposed parallel mechanisms (PMs) differ from conventional PMs in that they can achieve the same mobility with fewer active joints. The general motion principle of the proposed new ...

An overview of fatigue failure and how it affects mechanical systems. How FEA software enables engineers to predict fatigue failure points on structural designs, before the manufacturing process.

The move was preceded by a wave of resignations of prosecutors, each refusing to sign the motion and some criticizing the ...

Researchers discovered that ink in a soap-and-milk experiment follows the path of least resistance due to surface tension ...
