Legged robots are capable of achieving energy-efficiency by introducing elastic elements in parallel with the actuators during the stance phase. However, the parallel elastic actuation results in a ...

The tech giant is deepening its commitment to the region with significant new infrastructure investments. The issuer is ...

Highly twisted rods that deform helically provide these metamaterials with a high stiffness and enable them to absorb and release large amounts of elastic energy.

An international research team coordinated at KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) has developed mechanical metamaterials with a high elastic energy density. Highly twisted rods that deform ...

Illustrates how kinetic energy is transferred from one body to another through elastic collisions. Explains formulas for calculating the exchange of energy. Defines concepts concerning stored ...

We’ll test different Lego mechanisms to store and release energy, aiming to find a practical and functional way to generate power.

The elastic energy is assumed to be constant over a grain, and thus does not participate to the equilibrium of a single crystal. On the other hand, the variations of the exchange energy near the ...

The elastic energy that the combined movements of torsion and separation provide serves as the primary engine for the acceleration of the discus in the delivery. A technical model that stresses the ...

The idea of aliens hiding in a parallel universe — though seemingly absurd — is presented as a way to bridge the gap between theoretical physics and the search for extraterrestrial life.

The amount of this mysterious energy in different parallel universes would influence the universes' respective star formation by impacting the rate of their cosmic expansion: If a universe has ...
