  • Applying an electric current and getting a muscle to jump is easy. (Alessandro Volta jolted a frog's legs 218 years ago.) Peckham is harvesting the body's own electrical signals to control muscles that have been cut off from the nervous system, a process called functional electrical stimulation, or FES. Peckham runs a group called the Cleveland FES Center, a collaboration among Case Western Reserve and two Cleveland hospitals.

  • In 2004 Mercedes-Benz faced customers complaints that its Sensotronic brake-by-wire system - which used an electrical link to control vehicles' brake pads - sometimes failed.

  • Thus, the failures spanned the electrical system, cooling system and control and instrumentation systems at the plants.

    WSJ: Nuclear Industry Likely to Reassess Safety Systems

  • The fire, believed to have been caused by an electrical failure, has been brought under control, local media report.

  • These channels are cylindrical assemblages of protein molecules which help to control such things as the electrical activity of nerve cells and the release of hormones.

    ECONOMIST: A hitherto-unknown way to evolve

  • All planes have batteries, but the Dreamliner needs especially powerful ones because its control systems are driven entirely by electrical signals in place of the hydraulic controls seen on earlier generations of jet.

  • These, he says, are 1, 500 times better than existing sensors at detecting hydrogen. (The gas combines with the tubes, changing their electrical properties.) Hydrogen detection is used to help control certain processes in industrial food production, for tweaking fuel combustion in car engines, and in monitoring certain bacterial infections.

    ECONOMIST: Was the carbon nanotube overhyped?

  • It sounds unbelievable, but the technology actually relies on understood phenomena, exploiting the electrical signals produced by the brain as well as eye movement to control electronic devices.

    FORBES

  • He added that it was the first time so many facilities had been affected by electrical failure at the same time since the plant was brought under control in December 2011.

  • Today's electrical system is a creaking relic lacking the sophisticated command-and-control tools necessary to ensure reliability.

    ECONOMIST: MONITOR

  • The fine-grained control that the command software enables combined with a design that is more electrical than mechanical creates enormous flexibility in how the different systems can be coordinated.

    FORBES: For Radical Innovation, Nature Loves A Vacuum

  • Court papers showed he denied a charge of careless driving at Lochgreen Road that day, losing control of his car, causing it to collide with and damage an electrical box and a fence.

    BBC: Graham Bowman

  • "If you have a massive electrical problem it's possible that you could cut off all the commands out to the control surfaces, " said aeronautics expert John Hansman.
