Step aside windmills, there's a new way to harvest kinetic energy in the works. A research team at the Ohio State University has created electromechanical devices that look like tiny leafless trees ...

ANN ARBOR, Mich.---Tiny generators developed at the University of Michigan could produce enough electricity from random, ambient vibrations to power a wristwatch, pacemaker or wireless sensor. The ...

Random vibration testing provides energy simultaneously at all frequencies. Vibration testing can help ensure that your new design will survive its intended environment. The problem is knowing how ...

Vibration testing helps to predict how well a product will withstand its intended service or transportation environment. Some new vibration controllers have the capability to replicate data recorded ...

A project is testing whether high-tech objects that look a bit like artificial trees can generate renewable power when they are shaken by the wind -- or by the sway of a tall building, traffic on a ...

Mr. Neill Doertenbach, Senior Applications Engineer, of Qualmark Corporation originally prepared this research paper for the 2014 RAMS conference. The classic ED vibration system has been used for ...
