Rectification of the lateral Casimir force in a vibrating non-contact rack and pinion
Arash Ashourvan, MirFaez Miri, Ramin Golestanian
The nonlinear dynamics of a cylindrical pinion that is kept at a distance from a vibrating rack is studied, and it is shown that the lateral Casimir force between the two corrugate…

Non-contact rack and pinion powered by the lateral Casimir force
Arash Ashourvan, MirFaez Miri, Ramin Golestanian
The lateral Casimir force is employed to propose a design for a potentially wear-proof rack and pinion with no contact, which can be miniaturized to nano-scale. The robustness of t…
