The first three resonance frequencies obtained by Zygo optical profilometer match the resonance frequencies obtained by impedance analyzer and ANSYS modal analysis. The equipment could also be used to ...

Scientists at IISc have found that by reducing the thickness of the piezoelectric ceramic PZT from 0.7mm to 0.2mm, its ability to deform significantly increases. They also discovered manufacturing ...

Abstract: To achieve high single-step efficiency (SSE), a novel bionic stick-slip piezoelectric actuator inspired by kangaroo’s leg mechanics is proposed in this article. The bionic design ...

In this work, we demonstrate the ability of lysozyme amyloid protein fibrils to possess piezoelectric capabilities when assembled into a freestanding bulk material. We transformed hen egg white ...

Not so, if you use a pair of specialised ultrasonic transducer arrays to move the air instead! (Video, embedded below) Three banks of thrusters provide a 180 degree steerable net force Details are ...
