In the sporting goods sector, consumers are willing to invest heavily in materials that combine both performance and sustainability. The Alliance for European Flax-Linen and Hemp, has reported an ...

In science and engineering, it's unusual for innovation to come in one fell swoop. It's more often a painstaking plod through which the extraordinary gradually becomes ordinary. But we may be at an ...

Seco Tools Inc. has developed its Steadyline vibration damping shell mill holders that feature a passive dynamic damping system offering up to three times the rigidity of equivalent solid holders,.

Piezoelectric shunt damping is an innovative method for mitigating unwanted vibrations in structures by exploiting the electromechanical properties of piezoelectric transducers. When bonded to a ...

Vibration-absorbing, sound-damping materials such as sheets of rubber and expanded foam tend to be thick, bulky and soft. A new material is a big exception to that tendency, however, as it absorbs ...

Engineers are working on intelligent materials that can diminish vibrations and extract power from the environment. These electro-active elastomers could dampen annoying vibrations in a car, for ...

Hydrin-brand ECO has a long history of use in automotive applications due its exceptional heat and oil resistance up to 150°C, while maintaining flexibility at low temperatures down to -50°C. While ...

Active or passive technology can be used to isolate vibrations from equipment. By employing active techniques, opposite but equal forces are created electronically via actuators and sensors to cancel ...
