The force due to electromagnetic induction on a test charge is calculated in different reference frames. The Faraday-Lenz Law and different formulae for the fields of a uniformly moving charge are used. The classical Heaviside formula for the electric field of a moving charge predicts that the inductive force vanishes in the frame in which the magnet is in motion and the test charge at rest. In...

The manipulation of fast moving, delicate tissues in beating heart procedures presents a considerable challenge to surgeons. We present a new robotic force stabilization system that assists surgeons by maintaining a constant contact force with the beating heart. The system incorporates a novel, miniature uniaxial force sensor that is mounted to surgical instrumentation to measure contact forces...

We review the basic ideas and results on the vortex dynamics in clean superfluid Fermi systems. The forces acting on moving vortices are discussed including the problem of the transverse force which was a matter of confusion for quite a time. Finally, we formulate the equations of the vortex dynamics which include all the forces and the inertial term associated with excitations bound to the mov...

Lorentz force eddy current testing is a novel nondestructive testing technique which can be applied preferably to the identification of internal defects in non-ferromagnetic moving conductors. This paper describes the comparison of this new technique with well-known eddy current testing. Measurements and numerical simulations have been done for both techniques for artificial subsurface defects ...

2.1 Principles of Inertial Sensors A coordinate system must be defined prior to deployment of an inertial sensor for body motion measurement. If the origin of a moving coordinate system has acceleration (A0) and rotates with a gyroscopic angular velocity (ω), and if a mass (m) has the position vector (r0) and the velocity (u0) with respect to the moving coordinate system, then the inertial forc...

Fish keratocytes can generate rearward directed traction forces within front portions of the lamellipodium, suggesting that a retrograde flow of actin may also occur here but this was not detected by previous photoactivation experiments. To investigate the relationship between retrograde flow and traction force generation, we have transfected keratocytes with GFP-actin and used fluorescent spec...

Investigations of living organisms have led biologists and physicians to introduce fundamental concepts, including Brownian motion, the First Law of Thermodynamics, Poiseuille’s Law of fluid flow, and Fick’s Law of diffusion into physics. Given the prominence of viscous forces within and around cells and the experience of identifying and quantifying such resistive forces, biophysical cell biolo...

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com electromagnetic wave was firstly shown by Oleinik [4]. However, the theoretical proof of the attraction possibility was given by Kazantsev and Sokolov for interaction of classical relativistic electrons in the field of a plane wave [5]. It is worth noting the work [6]. It is very important to point out, that attraction of classical electrons in the ...

In this paper, we propose a weighted interaction force estimation in the social force model(SFM)-based framework, in which the properties of surrounding individuals in terms of motion consistence, distance apart, and angle-of-view along moving directions are fully utilized in order to more precisely discriminate normal or abnormal behaviors of crowd. To avoid the challenges in object tracking i...
