Tinkercad is a free-of-charge, online 3D modeling program that runs in a web browser. [1] Since it became available in 2011 it has become a popular platform for creating models for 3D printing as well as an entry-level introduction to constructive solid geometry in schools.
A piezoelectric disk generates a voltage when deformed (change in shape is greatly exaggerated) A piezoelectric sensor is a device that uses the piezoelectric effect to measure changes in pressure, acceleration, temperature, strain, or force by converting them to an electrical charge. The prefix piezo-is Greek for 'press' or 'squeeze'. [1]
Autodesk to Acquire Tinkercad, Easy-to-Use Web-Based 3D Design Software SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Autodesk, Inc. (NAS: ADSK) has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Tinkercad, an easy ...
Piezoelectric balance presented by Pierre Curie to Lord Kelvin, Hunterian Museum, Glasgow. Piezoelectricity [note 1] is the electric charge that accumulates in certain solid materials—such as crystals, certain ceramics, and biological matter such as bone, DNA, and various proteins—in response to applied mechanical stress.
FreeCAD is a general-purpose parametric 3D computer-aided design (CAD) modeler and a building information modeling (BIM) software application with finite element method (FEM) support. [4] It is intended for mechanical engineering product design but also expands to a wider range of uses around engineering, such as architecture or electrical ...
The cross-section of a piezoelectric accelerometer. The word piezoelectric finds its roots in the Greek word piezein, which means to squeeze or press. When a physical force is exerted on the accelerometer, the seismic mass loads the piezoelectric element according to Newton's second law of motion (=). The force exerted on the piezoelectric ...
Insides of a slip-stick piezoelectric motor. Two piezoelectric crystals are visible that provide the mechanical torque. [1]A piezoelectric motor or piezo motor is a type of electric motor based on the change in shape of a piezoelectric material when an electric field is applied, as a consequence of the converse piezoelectric effect.
It is a time domain solver that specializes in large wave propagation problems, with emphasis on problems featuring electro-mechanical materials such as piezoelectric ceramics. [ 2 ] The explicit solver is designed to tackle both highly non-linear transient phenomena and quasi-static problems.
