Primary Gas Pressure Standard Passes Next Stress Test
With doubled sensitivity, the thermodynamic gas‐pressure standard based on temperature and electrical measurements as well as ab initio calculations of the thermophysical properties of helium is compared to the most accurate mechanical pressure standard. This stress test for theory and experiment is once again successful.

Abstract The dynamics of an ultra‐precision machine tool determines the precision of the machined surface. This study aims to propose an effective method to model and analyze the dynamics of an ultra‐precision fly‐cutting machine tool. First, the dynamic model of the machine tool considering the deformations of the cutter head and the lathe head is ...

Air and atmosphere studies: Enlightenment, phenomenology and ecocriticism
Abstract This essay examines the treatment of air and atmosphere in literary scholarship of the late 17th‐ to mid‐19th‐century periods, from the first, early Enlightenment discovery of the air's chemical structure and the coining of the word ‘atmosphere’, to the dawning of Victorian industrial pollution.

Study on Static Characteristics of Annular Array Microporous Aerostatic Bearing
In this paper, an aerostatic bearing model in the form of microorifice annular array is designed to explore the static performance of aerostatic bearing when the orifice diameter and working air film thickness are of the same order of magnitude. Firstly, the simulation model of the new bearing is established, the pressure distribution of the bearing ...

Abstract As one of the most advanced and precise equipment in the world, a photolithography scanner is able to fabricate nanometer‐scale devices on a chip. To realize such a small dimension, the optical system is the fundamental, but the mechanical system often becomes the bottleneck. In the photolithography, the exposure is a dynamic process.

Gas‐Lubricated Vibration‐Based Adhesion for Robotics
This work presents a new adhesion technique that uses a vibrating flexible disk to generate high adhesive stresses with low lateral resistance to movement, currently a challenge for mobile robots. The adhesive performance is measured for disks of different geometries and a mobile robot is built that can support payloads ≈10x its weight while driving on
