    Determine impulse response given input and output signals

    Hello, I think that would be a typo. Sorry, I know it's misleading that they're asking for the impulse response and then on the figure label it says step response.

    Determine impulse response given input and output signals

    Homework Statement Hello everyone, In the following problem I have to find the unknown impulse response g1(t) given the input and output signals, as shown below: (the answer is already there, at the moment I am trying to understand how to get there). Homework Equations [/B] I have...

    Determine air flow rate from pressure drop and hose diameter

    I guess those dimensions would be internal to the pressure meter, which would be a little difficult to take apart. Would you recommend maybe looking at the data sheet of either the pressure meter or the compressor that is being used? That's the only thing I can think of. I guess they can provide...

    Determine air flow rate from pressure drop and hose diameter

    Good evening everyone, I have a pressure meter from where we determined a pressure drop of 5.5 psi (Initial pressure 45.5 psi, final pressure 40 psi). The working fluid is air. The diameter of one of the hoses that is connected to the pressure meter is 1/4". I wasn't able to take a picture of...

    Piston force required (Disk brake system)

    It is indeed a good idea to consider the torque on the screw. Although, I was looking at a slightly different approach. I attached the files that explain it in my previous reply if you want to take a look at those :) And yes, we do need to adjust the pressure so I've been looking for...

    Piston force required (Disk brake system)

    Thank you for those links. I didn't think about considering the screw torque before, that is a good idea! I was doing some additional research and it occurred to me to take a look at my "Machine Elements in Mechanical Design" book by Robert L. Mott. I didn't have access to it during the week...

    Piston force required (Disk brake system)

    I attached a small 30 sec video for better reference. What do you think? Block/shoe? Thank you so much for your time. https://player.vimeo.com/video/175896622

    Piston force required (Disk brake system)

    Hello everyone, I'm currently working on a project where we need to change the little manual wheel (shown by red arrow) and replace it by a cylinder (either pneumatic or hydraulic). Right now, when the manual wheel is adjusted by rotating it to the right, the contracting rim will come closer...
