  2. Metal spinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_spinning

    Metal spinning, also known as spin forming or spinning or metal turning most commonly, is a metalworking process by which a disc or tube of metal is rotated at high speed and formed into an axially symmetric part. [1]

  3. Aluminium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium

    Aluminium (or aluminum in North American English) is a chemical element; it has symbol Al and atomic number 13. It has a density lower than that of other common metals, about one-third that of steel. Aluminium has a great affinity towards oxygen, forming a protective layer of oxide on the surface when exposed to air.

  4. Spin structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_structure

    The bundle S is called the spinor bundle for a given spin structure on M. A precise definition of spin structure on manifold was possible only after the notion of fiber bundle had been introduced; André Haefliger (1956) found the topological obstruction to the existence of a spin structure on an orientable Riemannian manifold and Max Karoubi ...

  5. Free electron model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_electron_model

    In solid-state physics, the free electron model is a quantum mechanical model for the behaviour of charge carriers in a metallic solid. It was developed in 1927, [1] principally by Arnold Sommerfeld, who combined the classical Drude model with quantum mechanical Fermi–Dirac statistics and hence it is also known as the Drude–Sommerfeld model.

  6. Spinel group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinel_group

    An example of an inverse spinel is Fe 3 O 4, if the Fe 2+ (A 2+) ions are d 6 high-spin and the Fe 3+ (B 3+) ions are d 5 high-spin. In addition, intermediate cases exist where the cation distribution can be described as (A 1− x B x )[A x ⁄ 2 B 1− x ⁄ 2 ] 2 O 4 , where parentheses () and brackets [] are used to denote tetrahedral and ...

  7. Spin network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_network

    Spin network diagram, after Penrose. In physics, a spin network is a type of diagram which can be used to represent states and interactions between particles and fields in quantum mechanics. From a mathematical perspective, the diagrams are a concise way to represent multilinear functions and functions between representations of matrix groups ...

  8. Melt spinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melt_spinning

    The metal (A) is melted by induction coils (I) and pushed by gas pressure (P), in a jet through a small orifice in the crucible (K) over the spinning drum (B) where it is rapidly cooled to form the ribbon of amorphous material (C)

  9. Spin valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_valve

    Spin valves work because of a quantum property of electrons (and other particles) called spin. Due to a split in the density of states of electrons at the Fermi energy in ferromagnets, there is a net spin polarisation. An electric current passing through a ferromagnet therefore carries both charge and a spin component. In comparison, a normal ...
