Even if a pump fails repeatedly, or if a motor's bearings continually fail before their rated life cycle, don't assume it's the pump or motor design to Even if a pump fails repeatedly, or if a motor's ...

Rising chip and packaging complexity is causing a proportionate increase in thermal couplings, which can reduce performance, shorten the lifespan of chips, and impact overall reliability of chips and ...

Raman and infrared spectroscopies are important tools for chemical analysis at the molecular level, providing key information such as the chemical bonding of a system to be measured. However, Raman ...

Dynamic shaft seals often fail in submersible systems, but the SplashValve eliminates seals entirely—using magnetic coupling for torque transfer through a sealed housing. Take note, there’s a quiz at ...

Operators can avoid failure of couplings during hydraulic fracturing by using a design window when designing a casing string. Hydraulic fracturing treatments produce higher stress levels in couplings.

Wireless system-on-chip (SoC) designs require implementing all circuit domains on the same die. This enables manufacturers to reduce cost and support integrity. On ...

As more intermittent renewable energy resources are added to the power grid, generator connectivity during a grid fault becomes ever more important to mitigate the risk of cascading blackouts. An ...

The material-interface-structure-function/performance coupled design method and the additive/formative/subtractive composite manufacturing method provide new ...

Coal-fired power plants can have up to 25 coal pulverizer drives, depending on their size. Any failure in the pulverizers, therefore, can cause big problems. When a large coal-fired plant in the ...
