More-powerful controllers and better software lead to broader applications for magnetic bearings. Magnetic-bearings, which support shafts with magnetic levitation rather than mechanical contact, have ...

The traditional vapor-compression cycle used in refrigeration may be relegated to the history books if researchers are right about magnetic (magnetocaloric) refrigeration. At least one major appliance ...

More and more people are waking up to the fact that they need to stay fit to live long. This opens up a market for fitness equipment like a treadmill or a home rowing machine. However, only some ...

If your New Year’s resolution this year is to get stronger, you might be looking to upgrade your at-home gym setup. For those interested in a low-impact, full-body workout, a rowing machine might be a ...

The Arduino magnetic drawing machine operates using an Arduino board mounted with a magnetometer. This setup, combined with node.js and socket.io, allows the machine to detect disturbances in the ...

Magnetic structure of a material. The colored spheres represent atoms and the arrows stand for their magnetic moments. The curved surface illustrates how the atoms assume the most energetically ...
