Brief Summary: EMF stands for Electro Magnetic Forming (or deformation). EMF manufacturing process is typically used to reduced rods diameter or compress materials. In aircraft and vehicles it is typically used to join two conductive metals creating a tighter seal and better contact area. The deformation usually occurs in milliseconds or seconds and the process consumes a lot of energy. [...]

Brief Summary What fun times I had in my undergrad class of kinematics design! As a final assignment, the professor(Dr. Yi Jia) gave us a project in which we had to design and build a prototype for a monitor motion mechanism. This project was for the desk he had in his office. I paired with partner [...]
