A motorised ankle exoskeleton has made running easier, even easier than assistive springs Appropriately powered by a motor, the exoskeleton reduced the energy cost of running by 15% compared with running without the exoskeleton, according to Stanford University, where the research took place. Whereas if the exoskeleton was powered to mimic a spring, running was ...

TDK has introduced the EZA2500W-32048 bi-directional dc-dc converter model to its EZA series, following the 11kW variant released last year. The high voltage range now covers 260-400Vdc and the lower voltage 36-65Vdc. The operating temperature is -10 to 50°C. Double sided protective board coating and long-life dust resistant fans have also been included. The output ...

The inverse chirp z-transform (ICZT) can be used with chirp contours that perform partial or multiple revolutions on the unit circle, according to engineers at Iowa State University. Last year, Iowa State engineers Alexander Stoytchev and Vladimir Sukhoy created a closed-form solution for the ICZT, which generalises the inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) off the ...
