Apart from the harmonic drive, the engineering community hasn’t really come up with any clever mechanisms for speed-to-torque conversion in the last few decades. However, recently a few folks at SRI ...

A brushless-DC motor is common in ceiling fan and pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera designs. But you can’t use the same brushless-DC motor solution for both of these end products. A ceiling fan driver ...

Background: The extent to which fatigue is related to the velocity of shortening is still not fully understood. Objectives: To examine the effects of fatigue induced by maximal intensity exercise at ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. William covers motorbikes, E-bikes, cars, trucks and mobility tech. With the electric vehicle (EV) market heating up and due to ...

Porsche just reaffirmed that the Taycan will have a 2-speed rear transaxle when it comes to final production. What improvement in acceleration times and range should we expect with this more complex ...

Background Excessive elbow varus torque (EVT) is the primary biomechanical mechanism of ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injury in baseball pitchers. The EVT-ball velocity (T-V) relationship is pitcher ...

What do you brag about when you talk about your high-performance car? Most likely, you’ll talk about the engine displacement, number of cylinders, and the overall horsepower. Torque tends to take a ...
