With a clever design, researchers have solved eddy-current damping in macroscopic levitating systems, paving the way for a ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

The Ampara district’s government agent’s role was peripheral to all activities within the valley. In fact it was no surprise to me to learn that the chairman and resident manager of the Gsl Oya ...

Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...

Large language models (LLMs) can provide rich physical descriptions of most worldly objects, allowing robots to achieve more informed and capable grasping. We leverage LLMs’ common sense physical ...

To estimate object properties such as mass or friction, our brain relies on visual information to efficiently compute approximations. The role of sensorimotor feedback, however, is not well understood ...

The coefficient of friction is a dimensionless number that denotes the relative strength of the force of friction between two surfaces. It is represented using the Greek letter μ (mu). There are two ...

Friction is a force that opposes the motion of two surfaces in contact with each other. It plays an essential role in our daily lives, as it is responsible for providing grip, reducing wear and tear ...

Legged robots can have a unique role in manipulating objects in dynamic, human-centric, or otherwise inaccessible environments. Although most legged robotics research to date typically focuses on ...
