The base complementarity of DNA can now be used to rationally design artificial nanostructures that can adopt versatile two- and three-dimensional shapes, such as different polyhedra 1,2,3,4. In ...

Many small mechanisms contain a spring or two. Ballpoint pens, for example, use coil springs while battery holders rely on beam springs for contacts. When the need for a spring arise, users can pick a ...

How efficiently and effectively a workpiece is heated is determined by the induction coil. Induction coils are water-cooled copper conductors created from copper tubing which is readily formed into ...

Sogefi Group (Milan, Italy) has launched what it says is the auto industry's first coil springs manufactured using composite material aimed at passenger vehicle and light commercial vehicle suspension ...

Coupling is the transfer of energy which happens in the space between the heating portion of the coil and the workpiece. Thus, coupling distance is how big a space must be to balance manufacturing ...

Spring technology for damping is relatively old. Stagecoaches had leaf springs, early trains had large, crude, coil-spring buffers (to absorb shocks when cars bumped together) and early automobiles ...

Recent innovations have enabled the creation of robust and reliable wireless power systems that can be tailored for use in a wide variety of industrial and consumer settings. There are two key design ...

An RF signal can be radiated effectively if the linear dimension of the antenna is comparable with the wavelength of the operating frequency. In an RFID application utilizing the VLF (100 kHz – 500 ...
