While most accounts of simulation for additive manufacturing (AM) focus on the complex interplay between thermo-mechanical phenomena that occur in 3D printing, conceptually separating the thermal and ...

Electromechanical actuators are mechanical actuators where the control knob or handle has been replaced by an electric motor. The rotary motion of the motor is converted into linear displacement. The ...

Classic radial gap, stacked lamination stators. (Shown with and without windings.) As we look at catalogs of electric motors, we find them classified by power, speed, and torque. To a large extent, ...

The essence of mechanical engineering is problem solving. MEs combine creativity, knowledge and analytical tools to complete the difficult task of shaping an idea into reality. Mechanical engineering ...
