Radial-Force-Based Swirling Actuator with Surface-Permanent-Magnet Structure for Low-Speed High-Torque Applications

Adrien Jean-Michel Thabuis

This paper proposes a swirling actuator that utilizes the electromagnetic radial force and a swirling gear to generate rotational torque. This actuator converts the swirling motion to the rotational motion and is suitable for low-speed high-torque applicat ...

Leap-frog transport of magnetically driven anisotropic colloidal rotors

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

In this article, we combine experiments and theory to investigate the transport properties of anisotropic hematite colloidal rotors that dynam ically assemble into translating clusters upon application of a rotating magnetic field. The applied field exerts ...

Stiffness, force and drift capacity of in-plane loaded modern unreinforced brick masonry walls

Bastian Valentin Wilding

In countries of low to moderate seismicity, such as Switzerland, unreinforced masonry (URM) is mainly used in residential buildings due to its good insulation capacity and fire resistance along with a fair compressive strength. URM walls however show a lim ...

Experimental study on the hydrodynamic impact of tsunami-like waves against impervious free-standing buildings

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich

Tsunamis, landslide-generated waves, and dam failures are rare, but highly destructive phenomena, associated with extreme loading on infrastructure. Recent events showed that specific measures must be taken to guarantee safety of both people and the built ...
