Abstract: Actuator attacks on the steering control actions of Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) will disrupt the control actions of path following, even lead to a serious traffic accident. In order to ensure ...

Regal Rexnord Aerospace Solutions now provides complete electro-mechanical actuator (EMA) subsystems designed and tested to ...

The main issue with bionic hands that drives users away from them, George explains, is that they’re difficult to control. “Our goal was making such bionic arms more intuitive, so that users could go ...

Abstract: A dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma actuator for controlling airflow is proposed. It consists of diverging and converging nozzles, two concentric cylinders, and an actuator mounted ...

Researchers have discovered that ferroelectric fluids can harness an overlooked transverse electrostatic force (TEF) to rise over 80 mm, without magnets or high voltages. By exploiting the fluid’s ...

Whether a power plant burns coal, gas or biomass – when process equipment has been in operation for many years, the question of modernisation inevitably arises sooner or later. By retrofitting ...

Advances in linear motors and hybrid actuators are pushing motion systems toward higher precision, speed and efficiency. A key part of achieving this performance is the integration of drives with ...

It’s an unfortunate fact that when a scientist at MIT describes an exciting new piece of hardware as “low-cost,” it might not mean the same thing as if a hobbyist had said it. [Caden Kraft] ...

The MLA (motorized linear actuator) and MEA (motorized electric actuator) series represent a new generation of compact linear motion solutions. Each actuator combines a high-performance stepper or ...
