In a fixed-field alternating-gradient (FFAG) accelerator, eliminating pulsed magnet operation permits rapid acceleration to synchrotron energies, but with a much higher beam-pulse repetition rate.

To run a stepper motor smoothly, it's necessary to apply linear acceleration. However, conventional algorithms to generate linear acceleration require complicated mathematics, which makes it difficult ...

Engineers focused on fast, light automation systems may pay too much attention to speed specs when acceleration is what really counts. Sponsored by Rollon Bearing speed is rarely the limiting ...

An algorithm in C for calculating linear acceleration necessary to run a step motor smoothly that requires only addition and subtraction. This code accompanies the article “Linear motor control ...

Objective Like many sports involving high speeds and body contact, head injuries are a concern for short track speed skating athletes and coaches. While the mandatory use of helmets has managed to ...

The easiest way to design a linear-motion system is to add components one by one. Then, step-by-step calculations relate input to power dissipated moving a load in a specific amount of time. Linear ...
