A stick-slip/inchworm hybrid rotary piezo motor based on a symmetric triangular driving mechanism

Dongdong Zheng

A stick-slip/inchworm hybrid rotary piezomotor based on a symmetric triangular driving mechanism, which can simultaneously achieve the benefits of both stick-slip and inchworm motors, was reported in this letter. It is based on the principle of stick-slip ...

Integrated approach for auto-adaptive synchronous motor winding

Florian Louis Copt

The intrinsic characteristic of a permanent magnet synchronous motor is defined by its internal dimensions, its material properties, as well as the power supply used in conjunction with the motor. When an extended operating range is desired but the electro ...

High Power Electronics Innovation Perspectives for Pumped Storage Power Plants

Drazen Dujic, Pedro Camilo de Oliveira e Silva, Miodrag Basic

The current framework of high penetration of intermittent energy sources requires variable-speed pumped hydro storage power plants (PHSPs) to provide grid support functions, which are, in this case, achieved through two technologies: doubly-fed induction m ...

Imaging neural activity in the ventral nerve cord of behaving adult Drosophila

Michaël Unser, Pavan P Ramdya, Chin-Lin Chen, Florian Aymanns, Laura Joan Hermans

To understand neural circuits that control limbs, one must measure their activity during behavior. Until now this goal has been challenging, because limb premotor and motor circuits have been largely inaccessible for large-scale recordings in intact, movin ...
