New ski design on the market
1996/03/01 Elhuyar Zientzia Iturria: Elhuyar aldizkaria
In the absence of finishing the ski season, fans are still in time to enjoy the advantages of the new ski design. A lead card made of piezoelectric material will prevent vibrations that occur during skiing and therefore increase the elegance of the skier on the slopes of the stations.

skis, the vibrations disappear and the elegance of the skier is accentuated more.
The piezometric material can convert mechanical vibrations into electrical currents and vice versa. The ticket of this material will be held slightly above the mooring point. It is said that it is in this area where more vibrations occur and that they want to prevent it from spreading along the entire length of the ski. The lead card will be added an electronic control circuit that will interpret the mechanical vibrations that have become electrical signal thanks to piezoelectricity. Interpreting means reducing the stiffness of skis and stopping vibrations.
The use of the new technology will not be limited to orders. Among other things, it has been seen that it will allow to avoid the vibrations that occur in the wings of the planes and that in the near future will also be used in cars and machine tools.
