Fireflies, pendulum clocks, our heart muscles and the neurons regulating our daily internal processes: these things all have a tendency toward synchrony, a phenomenon that emerges when individual ...

In oscillatory tests the measuring system moves backwards and forwards at a set frequency and amplitude. The advantage of performing the test in such a way is that small strains are applied onto the ...

A common technique used to characterize the mechanical properties of bulk polymer specimens is known as DMA or Dynamic Mechanical Analysis. It is a technique in which oscillatory stress is placed on ...

A ripe apple falling from a tree has inspired Sir Isaac Newton to formulate a theory that describes the motion of objects subject to a force. Newton's equations of motion tell us that a moving body ...

Uncover the fascinating world of resonance in driven and damped oscillatory systems! In this video, we break down how external forces, damping, and natural frequencies interact to create resonance ...

A researcher has conducted an experimental demonstration of intricate and previously theorized behaviors in the fundamental patterns that govern oscillatory systems in nature and technology. An Aston ...

It is common knowledge that insulin “unlocks the doorway,” allowing sugar to enter our cells. We also know that insulin is secreted by specialised β-cells in the pancreas. What is far less known is ...

Early use of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation in moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome may increase in-hospital mortality The results of recent trials discourage the use of high ...
