MIT researchers built a 3D printer that can produce a fully functioning electric linear motor in about three hours for 50 cents in materials. Linear motors are typically used in optical systems and ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a nonlinear state observer-based adaptive robust control method, aimed at enhancing the disturbance resistance of linear motor systems. The state space of the linear ...

What just happened? 3D printing has become very good at making shapes, but making complex machines with moving parts is where most printers tap out. MIT researchers, however, have developed a ...

Motor insurers would have to explain to customers why their premiums are going up, under a new voluntary code. The Government initiative aims to provide more transparency and pass on the effects of ...

A broken motor can bring an automated machine factory to a halt—and instead of ordering a replacement part that could take days or weeks to arrive, with costly production delays, it may soon be easier ...

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a multimaterial extrusion 3D printing platform designed to fabricate complete electric machines in a single manufacturing ...

Sustained growth depends on how broadly you define your business—and how carefully you gauge your customers’ needs. by Theodore Levitt Every major industry was once a growth industry. But some that ...

Make Jerrelle Guy's sour cream and onion edamame, and wine-poached salmon cakes with cheesy cauliflower 'grits' A judge ruled in the restaurant's favour, saying spiciness 'is often the point' You can ...

There exists a paradox among fans of the universe created by Gene Roddenberry 60 years ago. Some fans lament the perception that the modern shows eschew the franchise's core elements, while at the ...
