DOI: 10.1088/1361-6404/ad3ca3
Abstract: When a book closes, the air between the approaching surfaces is accelerated and ejected through the open sides at large speeds. The air resists this motion, and so a reaction forces acts on the closing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s40648-017-0076-4
Abstract: Most of the long-reach inspection devices developed so far have a limitation in the reduction of their diameter when their length is increased. This limitation is due to the technology used to provide the actuation… read more here.
