Voith has found a way to produce constant power from variable power sources, like wind and water using planetary gearing and oil couplings accelerating turbines and regulating speed and torque allowing the generator to be connected directly to the grid...
-
Using servo motors, magnetic encoders for monitoring and differential force on springs to create torque, researchers at Carnegie Mellon University are creating robotic legs that can walk, run, jump; something we don't even think about when we do these...
-
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University are working on pumps that produce very low turbulence to be used as medical blood pumps. Low turbulence means no clotting inside the pump. Using flow meters and lasers, they get a real time look at how they're...
