Chauveau, who does research in plasma physics in the mechanical engineering department at Stanford, found, however, that the program had an additional advantage.

By taking clever advantage of the interplay between light, electrons on the surface of metals, and heat, researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have for the first time created a plasmomechanical oscillator (PMO), so named because it tightly couples plasmons — the collective oscillations of electrons at the surface of a metal nanoparticle — to the mechanical vibrations of the much larger device it's embedded in.

Even for patients who manage their insulin with automated mechanical pumps (SN Online: 5/8/10), synthetic cells offer the advantage of more precise, real time blood sugar regulation, says Michael Strano, a bioengineer at MIT.

Moreover, the model can be generalized to add another path toward the solution of complex classical computational problems by taking advantage of quantum mechanical parallelism — the fact that, according to quantum mechanics, a system can be in many classical states at the same time.

For years, scientists and engineers have synthesized materials at the nanoscale level to take advantage of their mechanical, optical, and energy properties, but efforts to scale these materials to larger sizes have resulted in diminished performance and structural integrity.

The method has the advantage of combining the benefits of natural tissue with the mechanical properties of an artificial matrix, says Alex Seifalian, a regenerative medicine specialist at University College London, who wasn't involved in the study.

To better understand why the seahorse tail deviates from the norm, and what mechanical advantages its curious shape might confer, researchers led by Michael Porter, an assistant professor in the department of mechanical engineering at Clemson University, created a 3D - printed model of the tail that was roughly the size of a soda can, as well as a hypothetical cylindrical version.

You won't need to shift as early to stay at peak power, keeping the mechanical advantage for more revs.

This means that the output shaft of a gearbox rotates at a slower rate than the input shaft, and this reduction in speed produces a mechanical advantage, increasing torque.
