Introduction You might have seen figure skaters spinning around quickly and then tucking their arms to spin faster—or opening them to spin more slowly. This happens, thanks to a physics concept known ...

Motion parameter transducers encapsulate a broad class of sensors that convert mechanical motion into electrical signals, facilitating quantitative analysis of dynamic systems. Within this category, ...

Tidal forces with periods of around one cycle per day cause variations in the direction of the Earth’s rotation (known as precession and nutation). The motion includes separate angular velocities for ...
