At Texas A&M University, experimental particle physicist Dr. Rupak Mahapatra spends his days chasing some of the faintest ...

COLUMBUS, Ohio – A different kind of design for absorbing vibrations could help better soundproof walls and make vehicles more streamlined, a new study shows. The study tested how well built-in ...

Crankshaft torsional dampers are increasingly being used for the gasoline engines of compact cars as well as for ordinary high speed diesel and gasoline engines. Recently, so-called bending dampers ...

(A) Schematic comparison of the puncture process with and without axial vibration, including 3 stages: pre-puncture (contact compression), puncture (membrane rupture), and post-puncture (insertion ...

Unwanted vibrations can misalign optics and cause images to blur. Jacqueline Hewett discovers how optical tables and vibration isolation systems can solve the problem. All buildings vibrate, whether ...
