This video is an animation of the principle behind PI’s magnetic linear motors. The magnetic linear motors correspond to a sequence of a number of voice-coil actuators; individual coils can be ...

This video shows the operation of the PiezoMike Linear Actuators with PIShift Piezomotor. The linear screw-type actuator with PIShift piezo inertia drive is provided for high-resolution and stable ...

A theory of plasticity is considered in which the yield function is a piecewise linear function of the stresses, the flow law is based on the plastic potential, and the strain-hardening is isotropic ...

Murphy’s Law predicts that it takes the first 99% of your time budget to finish the first 99% of a job and the second 99% to get it completed. The history of piezoelectric motors can serve as a good ...

The minimum description length (MDL) principle originated from data compression literature and has been considered for deriving statistical model selection procedures. Most of the existing methods ...
