Exoskeletons: origin, types and applications
Exoskeletons are wearable robots that can increase a person’s physical capabilities and protection. This technology only existed in science fiction.
PID controller tunning: CHR and CC methods
This post’s subject is the description of other methods to tune a PID controller. CHR (Chien, Hrone e Reswick) and CC (Cohen e Coon).
Classical control: Theoretical introduction
This post’s subject is an introduction to classical control theory. Where is used PID controller, with only one input and one output.
Capacitance and inductance: More information
I received requests to write more about capacitance and inductance. This post can be considered as the second part of derivated electrical quantities.
Robots against coronavirus
Robots are helping in combat against coronavirus, reducing contamination. How they are and what are their functions? It’s this post’s subject.
Introduction to nanomachines
Nanomachines are molecular mechanisms which execute a function when receive a stimulus. Today’s subject is an introduction with examples.
What are degrees of freedom?
This post’s subject is degrees of freedom (DOF). The concept in mechanics and how to calculate DOF in a mechanical system.
MEMS manufacturing (Part 2, surface micromachining)
In this part about MEMS manufacturing, the subject is surface micromachining. A very different method from the one shown in previous part.
MEMS manufacturing (Part 1)
MEMS manufacturing is similar to process used to fabricate microelectronic circuits. The bulk micromachining is today’s subject.
