Aeroengine rotor assembly optimisation is a critical field focused on enhancing the performance, reliability and efficiency of modern aeroengines. Central to this ...

Scientists have managed to direct the self-assembly of rod-shaped molecules into rotors only few nanometers in size. The tiny systems serve the study of forces that act on molecules on surfaces and in ...

Fixed-angle rotors feature a medium pathlength, a fast run time and excellent resolution. In fixed-angle rotors, tubes are held at a constant angle during the spinning operation, typically between 23° ...

Adding a nonadsorbing polymer to passive colloids induces an attraction between the particles via the "depletion" mechanism. High enough polymer concentrations lead to phase separation. We combine ...

Large centrifugal impeller compressors are commonplace throughout the petrochemical sector, where they usually operate on a continuous duty basis. When a scheduled maintenance task at a refinery in ...

Lucid Group has been granted a patent for a hybrid rotor assembly for electric motors. The assembly incorporates both sintered permanent magnets and bonded magnets in the lamination cavities of the ...

Swinging-bucket centrifuge rotors feature a full pathlength, slow run time, and excellent resolution. The swinging bucket rotor allows the tube to change angle during the run. The buckets are vertical ...

A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11888356B2) discloses a motor drive system that includes an electric motor with a unique rotor assembly. The rotor assembly comprises a rotor shaft ...

When someone slaps down a hundred grand for a vehicle—a cigarette boat, say, or a sports car—there is usually some kind of red-carpet handover: a hearty handshake along with the keys, then a captain’s ...

UK investigators have determined that a failure of the connection linking the yaw control pedals and the tail rotor was behind the high-profile fatal crash of a Leonardo Helicopters AW169 (G-VSKP) in ...
