I love using seemingly random data to figure out stuff I wouldn't otherwise know. You can do this with all kinds of things, but in this example, I use video that I recorded from an airplane to figure ...

Understand rotational motion in a clear, intuitive way with a lesson designed to stick with you forever. This video breaks ...

Cross-flow turbines, also known as vertical-axis turbines, are attractive for power generation from wind and water currents. Some cross-flow turbine designs optimize unsteady fluid forces and maximize ...

If the angular velocity of a link in a mechanism is zero, does this imply that the angular acceleration of that link is also zero? The short answer to that question is NO. If ω(t) represents the ...

Many people don't know too much about angular momentum—and that's fine. But what about figure skaters? Whether they understand the concept of angular momentum doesn't matter but they use it in one of ...

Research using wearable devices shows that monitoring turning movements while walking can help detect Parkinson's disease ...

Recent research indicates that using wearable sensors to monitor turning movements while walking can help detect Parkinson's disease years before clinical diagnosis, showcasing the potential for early ...

The participants wore a single sensor on their lower back, which measured turning movements they made while walking down a 20 ...
