Air-powered motion systems combine economy, speed, and cleanliness. Linear-motion devices abound in automated assembly equipment such as robots, conveyors, and pick-and-place systems. Applications ...

A new, MIL-qualified power converter has been designed to provide electrical isolation between input power and an electrically noisy load. The DTI PCS-5000 maintains a unity power factor when driving ...

At one time, almost all electrical loads were linear — those that weren't made up such a small portion of the total that they had little effect on electrical system operation. That all changed, ...

• Most problems are nonlinear from the get-go. • Simplified load-deflection cases can help explain nonlinear (structural) FEA. Which designers need nonlinear FEA and why? Actually, projects ranging ...

The computation of flight and ground loads acting on the aircraft structure is one of the main tasks in the design and certification process of an aircraft. The term loads comprises all steady and ...
