May 2024 Issue: Sensors for personal mobility devices

Wed, 01 May 2024 17:09:36 +0000

Growing pains I remember feeling chronic discomfort in my shins as my teenage tibias attempted to get me up to average height. It was a nice try, but five-foot-two was all they could muster. Fortunately, most engineering and writing careers don’t have a minimum height requirement. Today’s fast-paced world pressures us to grow quickly and…

March 2024 Issue: Deep Dive: How bearings propel subsea applications

Wed, 06 Mar 2024 14:47:49 +0000

When 99% is simply not good enough I’m going to veer off the normal engineering focus of this column for a month to dabble in a scientific field that’s close to my heart: astronomy. We’re a month out from this year’s big heavenly spectacle in the U.S., the total solar eclipse on April 8th. This…

February 2024 Issue: HMIs in motion control

Fri, 09 Feb 2024 16:23:23 +0000

I love learning about engineering colleagues who are innovating in new ways. Take the current issues with renewable energy. While strides have been made in solar and wind, the variability of these technologies often doesn’t match up with when power is most needed. That’s created much research over the years into ways to store power…

December 2023 Issue: Keeping A Low Profile: How micro screws support lighter, more aerodynamic designs

Sat, 02 Dec 2023 03:49:26 +0000

In this issue… What Are Low-Profile Screws? Low-profile screws are made with a lower head height than typical screws. These fasteners are designed with a minimal or flush head that sits close to the surface of the material being fastened — providing low visibility but a secure attachment. These components are also referred to as…
