  2. MB-Lab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MB-Lab

    The software is designed as a laboratory [5] in constant evolution and includes both consolidated algorithms as the 3D morphing and experimental technologies, as the fuzzy mathematics used to handle the relations between human parameters, the non-linear interpolation [6] used to define the age, mass and tone, the auto-modelling engine based on body proportions and the expert system used to ...

  3. Gravimetric blender - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravimetric_blender

    A gravimetric blender is an item of industrial equipment used in the plastics industry to accurately weigh two or more components and then mix them together prior to processing in an injection molding machine, plastics extrusion, or blow moulding machine. [1] [2] There are two types of gravimetric blenders: 1. Loss in weight

  4. Cavendish experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavendish_experiment

    However, a torque in the opposite direction is also generated by the gravitational pull of the masses. It can be written as a product of the attractive force of a large ball on a small ball and the distance L/2 to the suspension wire.

  5. Gravimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravimetry

    The change in length of the spring may be calibrated to the force required to balance the gravitational pull. The resulting measurement may be made in units of force (such as the newton ), however, gravimeters display their measurements in units of gals (cm/s 2 ), [ a ] and parts per million, parts per billion, or parts per trillion of the ...

  6. Levitation (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levitation_(physics)

    Levitation is accomplished by providing an upward force that counteracts the pull of gravity (in relation to gravity on earth), plus a smaller stabilizing force that pushes the object toward a home position whenever it is a small distance away from that home position. The force can be a fundamental force such as magnetic or electrostatic, or it ...

  7. Gravitoelectromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitoelectromagnetism

    Diagram regarding the confirmation of gravitomagnetism by Gravity Probe B. Gravitoelectromagnetism, abbreviated GEM, refers to a set of formal analogies between the equations for electromagnetism and relativistic gravitation; specifically: between Maxwell's field equations and an approximation, valid under certain conditions, to the Einstein field equations for general relativity.

  8. Artificial gravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_gravity

    Artificial gravity, or rotational gravity, is thus the appearance of a centrifugal force in a rotating frame of reference (the transmission of centripetal acceleration via normal force in the non-rotating frame of reference), as opposed to the force experienced in linear acceleration, which by the equivalence principle is indistinguishable from ...

  9. Hill sphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_sphere

    The Hill sphere is a common model for the calculation of a gravitational sphere of influence. It is the most commonly used model to calculate the spatial extent of gravitational influence of an astronomical body (m) in which it dominates over the gravitational influence of other bodies, particularly a primary (M).
