Traditional isolators are fabricated using metal springs or rubber blocks. They have low internal damping and only tend to be effective at frequencies in the region of 10 Hz. They also fail to isolate ...
In this interview, Erik Runge, Director of Engineering at Minus K Technology talks to AZoNano about their range of Negative-Stiffness Vibration Isolators and why they are the preferred solution for ...
Erik Runge, Director of Engineering at Minus K Technology, talks to AZoNano about their low-frequency vibration isolation systems. Could you provide our readers with a summary of the history of Minus ...
On Christmas day in 2021, after more than two decades of development, the James Web Space Telescope (JWST) was launched by NASA from French Guiana on the northeast coast of South America. The launch ...
The resolution of microscopies of all types is limited due to ambient vibration. It reduces the localizability of features in clear and obvious ways — this is a growing issue for the long acquisition ...
Cell culturing is a frequently applied technique in biology to carefully grow a particular type of cell. A great deal of care is taken to maintain sterile conditions during the preparation of cell ...
Sensitive optical experiments and high-resolution microscopes often need to be mounted on vibration-control platforms to avoid unwanted disturbances to measurements. Neil Savage describes a selection ...
