The ability to measure, monitor, and analyze vibration is essential to many industries and areas of research & development. Unfortunately, the proper methods for creating an accurate and repeatable ...

Researchers at the University of Miyazaki in Japan used a new non-destructive method to enable them to investigate solar cell vibrations independently of module components. The study included ...

Multiface polygonal mirrors and high-speed motors make it possible for Mitutoyo America Corp. LSM-544 Series laser-scan micrometers to operate up to 1,600 scans per second. This is ideal for measuring ...

Electronic devices are usually thought of as securely and safely mounted in a protective enclosure or sitting on a table top, yet portable devices require completely different standards to which ...

Industries and R&D sites depend on sensors to measure, monitor and analyze vibrations. Unfortunately, the best ways to get accurate and repeatable vibration data are not clear to many engineers; they ...

It’s easy to take for granted equipment that runs smoothly and is comfortable to operate. However, a great deal of research and testing goes into optimizing the vibration of an engine. Advancements in ...

Phonons bring good vibrations to quantum physicists. This is an Inside Science story. “I'm picking up good vibrations. She's giving me excitations.” Little did The Beach Boys know their 1966 hit was ...
