In manufacturing, not all losses are loud. Some happen quietly, every second, in the background. Friction is one of them. Each time two parts move, whether turning, sliding or rolling, energy is lost.

The linear canonical transform (LCT) is a versatile integral transform that generalises classical transforms such as the Fourier, fractional Fourier, and Fresnel transforms. By utilising four ...

The shift involves a move away from the linear economy and toward increased responsibility over the total lifecycle of a product and its environmental impact. Circular economy, set to be the biggest ...
