  2. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    Schematic of contact area for the JKR model JKR test with a rigid bead on a deformable planar material: complete cycle. To incorporate the effect of adhesion in Hertzian contact, Johnson, Kendall, and Roberts [5] formulated the JKR theory of adhesive contact using a balance between the stored elastic energy and the loss in surface energy. The ...

  3. Electromaterials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromaterials

    Electromaterials enable the transport of charged species (electrons and/or ions) as well as facilitate the exchange of charge to other materials.For atomic and molecule systems, this is observed as atomic electronic transition between discrete orbitals, while for bulk semiconductor materials electronic bands determine which transitions may occur.

  4. Electrical conductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_conductor

    The resistance of a given conductor depends on the material it is made of, and on its dimensions. For a given material, the resistance is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area. [1] For example, a thick copper wire has lower resistance than an otherwise-identical thin copper wire. Also, for a given material, the resistance is ...

    JKR or Jkr. may refer to: Janakpur Airport (IATA code: JKR), an airport in southeastern Nepal; Japan Karate-Do Ryobu-Kai, an international karate organization; J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series; Johnson-Kendall-Roberts model, a mathematical model in contact mechanics; Jones Knowles Ritchie, a British design agency

  8. Electromagnetic shielding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_shielding

    The best shape for magnetic shields is thus a closed container surrounding the shielded volume. The effectiveness of this type of shielding depends on the material's permeability, which generally drops off at both very low magnetic field strengths and high field strengths where the material becomes saturated. Therefore, to achieve low residual ...

  9. Pyroelectricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyroelectricity

    One group calculated that a pyroelectric in an Ericsson cycle could reach 50% of Carnot efficiency, [24] [25] while a different study found a material that could, in theory, reach 84-92% of Carnot efficiency [26] (these efficiency values are for the pyroelectric itself, ignoring losses from heating and cooling the substrate, other heat-transfer ...
