    Calculation to determine PCB thickness

    Hi, In my design there are PCB boards. But i am worried the thickness of PCB will not be strong enough to withstand cracking and warp-age when under stress and strain. Is there any formula i can use to calculate vibration on the PCB so i can increase thickness via mechanical ribs...

    Selling an innovation to a company

    In engineering innovation, sadly you can't do trade secrets like coca-cola where only you know the concoction, and buyers just need to taste it with their tongue. So much easier! The art of reverse engineering is a blessing and a curse.. :d

    Efficient Air Curtain Calculation Method with Engineering Toolbox

    Its really up to you the designer actually regarding how much air discharge you want people to feel when passing through of course not too much or too little, find a good balance , most formula as such has 2 unknown variable, you get to fill it in and play around with the proportion.. For ware...
