Using a microcontroller to manage the operation of a switching power supply allows designers to implement new programmable features previously unavailable from stand-alone controller chips. Many of ...

Neural Concept is helping launch products at 2X the speed. It does this by capturing past knowledge into AI-based ...

I’ve seen firsthand how well-designed market solutions can transform global industries. And it turns out the same approach ...

Print them at 50% scale for a far cuter (and much less useful) result. [Jacob Stanton]’s design for 3D-printable, stacking and locking boxes is a great example of design for manufacturability (DFM).

Electronics are getting more sophisticated and complex every day. Chips, boards, and the systems they comprise are increasingly difficult to design. Companies engaged in electronic product development ...

Specialised industrial facilities, from mechanics workshops to aircraft maintenance sheds, often have soulless interiors ...

As architects push for larger panels, tighter tolerances, and faster installation in constrained urban sites, honeycomb-backed cladding has become a practical enabler, supporting everything from thin ...

Transparency and spatial flexibility help create an environment that fosters interaction and innovation among researchers and staff. Photo: Robert Benson, courtesy Goody Clancy Science and research ...

One of the most robust backward design models developed for higher education is L. Dee Fink’s integrated course design. Fink outlines a streamlined process for designing academic courses, divided into ...

Advances in motor design have allowed different types of robots to both specialize for industrial functions and converge in precision.

I grew up around cars, in a Ford family. My grandfather raced at Le Mans and elsewhere, often driving Ford GT40s. So it was with great interest that I clicked on an article by a fellow marine, Owen ...
