Came across this fun fact today… 6-32 screws have the worst ratio of torque that can be applied to torque necessary to shear the screw. In other words, they are the screws most likely to shear off. Good to know. Related Solar Powered Supercar presents an emotion-driven aspect of Volkswagen
An entry at 2010 Swansea Metropolitan University Degree Show in automotive design, the “VW Solar Powered Supercar” by designer Peter Wilkins is a car concept that demonstrates the aesthetic aspect of eco-friendly vehicles to Pendulum-Tail Robot Climbs Vertical Walls In Seconds
Wielding two claws, a motor and a tail that swings like a grandfather clock’s pendulum, a small robot named ROCR (“rocker”) scrambles up a carpeted, 8-foot wall in just over 15 seconds – the first such robot designed Behind the Design: Making Machines that Eat Cars
We all know it. There are at least six programs that go into design process. That is, when there are more than five programs used. And with that, there’s a workflow that needs to be beat into submission. You’re about to see Renault DeZir runs on a fully electric drivetrain
