Abstract: Rolamite geometries having rectangular and diamond cutouts are presented as examples illustrating the use of the geometry analysis computer codes for accurately predicting force traces. The resultant ...

Abstract: The rolamite is a precision roller-band mechanism which was recently developed. The looseness of the rolamite geometry is a function of the band tension. The tight geometry and the slightly ...

Abstract: An approximate method for the design of electrodynamic oscillating gas compressors is developed. A linear spring-damper load is used to approximate the gas load at a single design point. Equations ...

Abstract: In Part 1, electrodynamic drivers are designed for a single, linearized load. In this part, a digital computer simulation program is described. This program more accurately models the nonlinearities ...
