Obtaining useful work from random fluctuations in a system at thermal equilibrium has long been considered impossible. In fact, in the 1960s eminent American physicist Richard Feynman effectively shut ...

Phonons are the quantum units of mechanical vibration. They describe how motion propagates through a solid at the smallest possible scales, in much the same way that electrons describe electric ...

Wave Digital Filters (WDFs) are digital structures derived from analogue circuit topologies that preserve energy‐based properties such as passivity and stability. Originally developed for linear ...

The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) has elected Prof. Orla Feely from University College Dublin's School of Electrical, Electronic and Mechanical Engineering for a fellowship.

Chaotic circuits can arise from either computed (using Analog Computers or Digital Computers) solutions to coupled differential equations or from unstable systems/circuits. A new open-source circuit ...
