Heave compensation systems play a critical role in mitigating the adverse effects of vertical motions induced by waves and other environmental forces on offshore platforms. These systems are ...

The machine design process has traditionally been full of sacrifices and trade-offs: one option selected at the expense of another. However, the tides are changing with the help of new solutions that ...

In the electronic field, an oscillator is a circuit capable of producing a self-sustained sinusoidal signal. In a lot of configurations, cranking up the oscillator involves the noise level inherent to ...

This work presents 10 years of experience using an Integrated Workers' Compensation Claims Management System that allows safety professionals, adjusters, and selected medical and nursing providers to ...

Over more than 20 years 50 million LuK dual mass flywheels (DMF) have been produced for use in passenger cars and light trucks. A typical DMF consists of two flywheels connected by long travel ...

An accelerometer-based active vibration-control system for CNC machine tools is designed to improve machining productivity by maximizing material removal rate (MRR), with the result that tool-head ...
