Surface temperatures are directly influenced ... We used this rich data to uncover the role of eddy currents. Ocean eddies are huge loops of swirling current, sometimes hundreds of kilometers ...

A main application of eddy currents are used is in non-destructive testing (NDT.) This is one of the most common electromagnetic NDT methods to see if a material or surface has any discontinuities, ...

Some common applications of eddy current testing outside of power generation are inspections of aircraft sections, automotive components, and machined parts to search for surface and subsurface ...

Argus Carlsbad was hammered with heavy rains and hail Thursday afternoon, while some in the city were transfixed by what ...

When above a metal surface, the spinning magnets generate eddy currents in the metal beneath them which create the strong magnetic field needed to levitate the board. Unlike the Lexus hoverboard ...

Eddy current testing is a fast, simple, and precise technique and is now extensively employed in the power generation, automotive, aerospace, and petrochemical industries to identify surface defects ...

A study of eddy-induced transport of energy and biochemical ... accounted for around 8 percent of the total variance in the surface heat flux and for about 39 percent in the salt flux.

[Seth Robinson] was inspired by the way eddy currents cause a cylindrical neodymium magnet to levitate inside a rotating copper tube, so he cast a spherical copper cage to levitate a magnetic sphere.
