Engineering design is often largely about the tradeoffs among the approaches to solving various challenges while meeting overall project objectives. These tradeoffs may be global such as balancing ...

The many available options for temperature-sensing transducers. The unique challenges and benefits of using thermocouples for temperature measurement. How a new IC greatly simplifies utilizing ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We present a readily implementable algorithm for finding stationary points for locally Lipschitzian functions that are not necessarily convex ...

Consider the single-DOF problem of a thin bar pinned to ground with a constant horizontal force F acting at the free end of the bar. This says that for a small perturbation about the equilibrium state ...

I often have to get a reasonably accurate temperature measurement for a laser, transistor, or printed circuit board. I usually use a thermistor for my temperature sensor because they are inexpensive.
