Vibration-absorbing, sound-damping materials such as sheets of rubber and expanded foam tend to be thick, bulky and soft. A new material is a big exception to that tendency, however, as it absorbs ...

Vibration-damping materials are specialized materials designed to reduce or absorb vibrations and noise in various applications. These materials include polymers, composites, and metals that convert ...

A sound damping and vibration reducing material can quiet and reduce vibrations in electronic racks, chassis, enclosures and other products. Comprised of two or more metallic substrates surrounded by ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) All mechanical systems exhibit vibrational resonances, where energy transmission through the structure spikes at certain natural frequencies. This resonance effect stems from the ...

Through millions of years of evolution, nature has produced biological systems with exceptional properties and functionalities. Many organisms have adapted to their particular environment by creating ...

A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12003142B2) discloses a unique Heating, Ventilation, and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) blower motor design. The blower motor includes a stator with ...

AZoM speaks with Sung Hoon Kang from Johns Hopkins University about his research into a material that protects like metal upon impact but is lighter and tougher than metal. This novel foam-like ...

Advanced materials are essential for EV battery systems, addressing thermal management, fire resistance, and EMC compliance to ensure long-lasting performance.
