A team of New York University scientists has created a gear mechanism that relies on fluids to generate rotation. The ...
Machines like blenders, washing machines, and even your car use reduction drives made of multiple gears to increase the torque or decrease the speed of rotation coming from a motor. Taking that idea ...
Researchers at UNSW have developed a new type of motor that spins, not with rigid components, but with a droplet of liquid ...
A trend gaining ground at industrial plants over the past decade has manufacturers replacing traditional spur and worm gears with high-efficiency helical gears. While sometimes viewed as a pricey ...
US researchers have created a gear mechanism that uses fluids, rather than mechanical teeth, to generate rotation. They ...
From the chariot wheels crossing the Gobi Desert in 3,000 BCE to the intricate bronze clockwork of the Antikythera mechanism ...
Researchers at UNSW have developed a new type of motor that generates rotation through the internal flow of a droplet of ...
The tiny motor, called a liquid metal droplet rotary paddle motor, works in a completely new way. Instead of traditional, rigid components like coils or magnets, the motor produces rotation by using ...
