A magnetic bearing. A magnetic bearing is a type of bearing that supports a load using magnetic levitation. Magnetic bearings support moving parts without physical contact. For instance, they are able to levitate a rotating shaft and permit relative motion with very low friction and no mechanical wear. Magnetic bearings support the highest ...
Magnetotropism is the movement or plant growth in response to the stimulus provided by the magnetic field in plants (specifically agricultural plants) around the world. As a natural environmental factor in the Earth, variations of magnetic field level causes many biological effects, including germination rate, flowering time, photosynthesis, biomass accumulation, activation of cryptochrome ...
In order to incorporate magnetic systems into the first law of thermodynamics, it is necessary to formulate the concept of magnetic work. The magnetic contribution to the quasi-static work done by an arbitrary magnetic system is [1] = where is the magnetic field and is the magnetic flux density. [3]
Magnetobiology is the study of biological effects of mainly weak static and low-frequency magnetic fields, which do not cause heating of tissues. Magnetobiological effects have unique features that obviously distinguish them from thermal effects; often they are observed for alternating magnetic fields just in separate frequency and amplitude intervals.
The magnetic gear is a magnetic coupling device that renders a mechanical ratio between two magnetically-coupled devices such that: They have a ratio of rotation or translational movement between input and output which may be unity in the case of a pure magnetic coupling or one of many gear ratios in a magnetic gearbox .
K is the symmetric bearing or seal stiffness matrix; N is the gyroscopic matrix of deflection for inclusion of e.g., centrifugal elements; q(t) is the generalized coordinates of the rotor in inertial coordinates; f(t) is a forcing function, usually including the unbalance. The gyroscopic matrix G is proportional to spin speed Ω.
The forces that led to the evolution of such systems as bearing male and female flowers on separate kinds of plants is still unclear. [12] The evolution from solitary flowers to the production of inflorescences is also thought to be influenced by pollinator behaviour. Clusters of flowers may increase the visitation rates of pollinators.
Magnetite-bearing magnetosomes have also been found in eukaryotic magnetotactic algae, with each cell containing several thousand crystals. Overall, magnetosome crystals have high chemical purity, narrow size ranges, species-specific crystal morphologies and exhibit specific arrangements within the cell.
