Design refinements boost performance of self-aligning ball bushing while maintaining their error-correcting nature.

Low-friction, high-stiffness ball guides support on one rail (top) or two (bottom). The trade-offs for this performance are higher cost and more noise. The shortest path between two points is a ...

Yosra Barkaoui’s doctoral dissertation in mathematics at the University of Vaasa, Finland, has successfully generalised a fundamental theorem that has been limited to the bounded case. The research ...

Grade school math students are likely familiar with teachers admonishing them not to just guess the answer to a problem. But a new proof establishes that, in fact, the right kind of guessing is ...

Most linear algebra courses start by considering how to solve a system of linear equations. \[ \begin{align} a_{0,0}x_0 + a_{0,1}x_0 + \cdots a_{0,n-1}x_0 & = b_0 ...

Non-linear physics is the study of systems where the output is not directly proportional to the input. Unlike linear systems, which follow simple, predictable relationships, non-linear systems exhibit ...

Propel your career forward with an accredited graduate certificate. Control systems are fundamental to engineering. They can also provide the fundamental shift that expands your career in whatever ...

Over the past century, archaeologists have uncovered more than 1,600 Proto-Elamite inscriptions, but only about 43 in Linear Elamite, scattered widely across Iran. Illustration by Meilan Solly / ...
