The linear rotary permanent magnet actuator (LRPMA) is a type of multidegree of freedom actuators, which can be widely applied in many fields such as aircraft driving, drilling process. This paper ...

A dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma actuator for controlling airflow is proposed. It consists of diverging and converging nozzles, two concentric cylinders, and an actuator mounted in between ...

Organic single crystal/polymer hybrid actuators that can be applied in extreme conditions such as polar regions and space are extremely important and rare. Herein, we report an extremely simple but ...

When an electric utility with a power plant in the southwestern U.S. prepared for a planned, major outage on its two Siemens ...

Collins says that electric thrust reverser actuation systems – which are fitted to the nacelle and redirect thrust from the aircraft’s engines to help it slow when landing – are up to 20% ...
