  2. Eddy current brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_current_brake

    Disk electromagnetic brakes are used on vehicles such as trains, and power tools such as circular saws, to stop the blade quickly when the power is turned off.A disk eddy current brake consists of a conductive non-ferromagnetic metal disc attached to the axle of the vehicle's wheel, with an electromagnet located with its poles on each side of the disk, so the magnetic field passes through the ...

  3. Regenerative shock absorber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_shock_absorber

    A system developed at MIT uses hydraulic pistons to force fluid through a turbine coupled to a generator.The system is controlled by active electronics which optimize damping, which the inventors claim also results in a smoother ride compared to a conventional suspension.

  4. Damper winding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damper_winding

    Bars and rings of the damper (amortisseur) winding of an AC generator (General Electric, early 20th century). Note the gaps in the cage along the quadrature axes. The damper winding (also amortisseur winding [1]) is a squirrel-cage-like winding on the rotor of a typical synchronous electric machine. It is used to dampen the transient ...

  5. Regenerative braking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_braking

    Regenerative braking is a two-step process involving the motor/generator and the battery. The initial kinetic energy is transformed into electrical energy by the generator and is then converted into chemical energy by the battery. This process is less efficient than the flywheel. The efficiency of the generator can be represented by:

  6. Shock absorber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_absorber

    A shock absorber or damper is a mechanical or hydraulic device designed to absorb and damp shock impulses. It does this by converting the kinetic energy of the shock into another form of energy (typically heat) which is then dissipated. Most shock absorbers are a form of dashpot (a damper which resists motion via viscous friction).

  7. Remote manipulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_manipulator

    Manipulator arms inside the Hot Bay of the Engine Maintenance Assembly & Disassembly Facility, in Area 25 of the Nevada Test Site.. A remote manipulator, also known as a telefactor, telemanipulator, or waldo (after the 1942 short story "Waldo" by Robert A. Heinlein which features a man who invents and uses such devices), [1] is a device which, through electronic, hydraulic, or mechanical ...

  8. Dashpot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dashpot

    A less common type of dashpot is an eddy current damper, which uses a large magnet inside a tube constructed of a non-magnetic but conducting material (such as aluminium or copper). Like a common viscous damper, the eddy current damper produces a resistive force proportional to velocity. A common use of the eddy current damper is in balance scales.

  9. Damper (flow) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damper_(flow)

    This damper can switch the electrical power to control additional "slave" dampers, minimizing the electrical load on the damper's control circuitry and power transformer. A zone damper (also known as a Volume Control Damper or VCD) is a specific type of damper used to control the flow of air in an HVAC heating or cooling system. In order to ...
