Brief description of project: The availability of 3D printers in our department as well as at the University library is allowing our students to design and evaluate low cost design prototypes. For ...

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 ...

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Vol. 292, No. 1431 (Jun. 14, 1966), pp. 537-561 (27 pages) The results are given of experimental and ...

They show considerable potential in many applications, including vibration insulation, wave-guiding, noise control, and energy harvesting technologies. While the foundation of metamaterials research ...

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 ...

Even very slight environmental noise, such as microscopic vibrations or magnetic field fluctuations a hundred times smaller than Earth's magnetic field, can be catastrophic for quantum computing ...

Researchers used a novel, high-precision laser spectroscopic experiment to measure the internal vibration of the simplest molecule. This allowed the researchers to investigate the wave character of ...
