Summer in the Northern hemisphere means outdoor cooking. Matches are old school, and you are more likely to use a piezoelectric lighter to start your grill. [Steve Mould] has one, but he didn&#8217… ...

Piezo Fuel Injectors Explained. The Tower of Piezo: The smartest injectors you ll ever meet. Csaba Csere Published: Feb 2, 2011. Save Article.

The Tamron Piezo Drive is what gives the Tamron 18-270mm lens its signature autofocus abilities. Fast, silent, and precise, the Piezo Drive functions because of a basic physics principle known as ...

The problem, Noda explained, was that the PHAs that were known at the time were too hard and brittle to be useful in most practical applications. “I was doing a lot of spectroscopic characterization, ...

Piezoelectric ceramics have unusual properties in both theelectrical and mechanical domains. So if it's been a while sinceyou shook hands with the dielectric constant or Hooke's Law, ... The various ...

A pair of chemists at Michigan State University has observed the piezoelectric effect in liquids for the first time. In their paper published in The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, Md ...

Natural piezoelectric effect may build gold deposits ... So, gold will preferentially form on single crystals, which also helps explain why it's found in large lumps in these deposits.

There are numerous other piezo configurations, but typically they are used to provide high force, high precision motion. I document a few more over on my blog.. Magnetostrictive actuators ...

Using only a single-crystal piezoelectric thin wafer of lithium niobate (LN) instead of the usual two-part structure, a group ...

But one Swiss startup says it has developed a piezoelectric catalyst that can eliminate 99 percent of these forever chemicals in wastewater streams and prevent them from entering water supplies.

Researchers have successfully regenerated damaged skull bones in mice by creating a freestanding, biomimetic scaffold that combines a piezoelectric framework and the growth-promoting properties of ...

The INST team, led by Dr. Aviru Basu, has developed a 3D-printed scaffold made from biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA)—a ...
