No, I am working with Electric Truck LLC developing the patent held by Tufts U. We need to put together some rough power estimations, that is why I am here asking. The only other unit I am aware of was made by Argonne. I have heard it vanished without leaving behind any residual energy...

I can't answer that definitively, the prototype isn't complete. But my gut, if you will, tells me yes. In terms of substituting a shock absorber. I believe that if no load is placed on the electrical output the spring will oscillate as if there were no damper. If 100 percent of the available...

Hi, Yes that is the ultimate goal. Specifically using the Goldner device as described in US patent 6952060. We want to calculate the maximum potential energy available. We understand that there will be energy losses all along the extraction/conversion process, but as the say you have to...

Hi, I am a new PE member. I am not a physicist but would appreciate any and all assistance offered. I am attempting to calculate the quantity of mechanical energy available at an automotive shock absorber. The end result of this exercise would be to replace the existing shock with an...
