  2. Materials recovery facility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Materials_recovery_facility

    A materials recovery facility for the recycling of domestic waste Clean materials recovery facility recycling video. A materials recovery facility, materials reclamation facility, materials recycling facility or multi re-use facility (MRF, pronounced "murf") is a specialized waste sorting and recycling system [1] that receives, separates and prepares recyclable materials for marketing to end ...

  3. Magnetic resonance fingerprinting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance...

    Magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) is methodology in quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characterized by a pseudo-randomized acquisition strategy. It involves creating unique signal patterns or 'fingerprints' for different materials or tissues after which a pattern recognition algorithm matches these fingerprints with a predefined dictionary of expected signal patterns.

  4. Magnetorheological finishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetorheological_Finishing

    Magnetorheological finishing (MRF) is a precision surface finishing technology. Optical surfaces are polished in a computer-controlled magnetorheological (MR) finishing slurry. Unlike conventional rigid lap polishing, the MR fluid's shape and stiffness can be magnetically manipulated and controlled in real time.

  5. Magnetorheological damper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetorheological_damper

    MRF-based dampers are excellent candidates for stability augmentation of the lead-lag (in-plane bending) mode of rotor blades in helicopters. [12] MRF-based squeeze film dampers are being designed for use in the rotary wing industry to isolate vibrations from the aircraft structure and crew.

  6. Magnetic field-assisted finishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field-assisted...

    In a typical MRF finishing setup the MRF fluid is pumped onto a rotating wheel which is connected to an electromagnet. When the electromagnet is activated the fluid transitions to a more viscous state, the workpiece is then pressed onto the fluid resulting a shearing of the fluid which results in material removal at the interface between the ...

  7. Magnetorheological fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetorheological_fluid

    A magnetorheological fluid (MR fluid, or MRF) is a type of smart fluid in a carrier fluid, usually a type of oil. When subjected to a magnetic field , the fluid greatly increases its apparent viscosity , to the point of becoming a viscoelastic solid. [ 1 ]

  8. Mechanical biological treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_biological...

    Process flow chart. The terms mechanical biological treatment or mechanical biological pre-treatment relate to a group of solid waste treatment systems.These systems enable the recovery of materials contained within the mixed waste and facilitate the stabilisation of the biodegradable component of the material.

  9. Multiprogram Research Facility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiprogram_Research_Facility

    The MRF's next goal is to achieve a machine capable of one exaflop (10 18 floating-point operations per second) and then one zetaflop (10 21). To achieve an exaflop machine by 2018, the NSA has proposed constructing two connecting buildings, totaling 260,000 square feet (24,000 m 2), called the Multiprogram Computational Data Center. The ...
