Magnetic reluctance, or magnetic resistance, is a concept used in the analysis of magnetic circuits.It is defined as the ratio of magnetomotive force (mmf) to magnetic flux.
Simplexity was defined by computer scientists Broder and Stolfi as: "The simplexity of a problem is the maximum inefficiency among the reluctant algorithms that solve P. An algorithm is said to be pessimal for a problem P if the best-case inefficiency of A is asymptotically equal to the simplexity of P." [2]
Switched reluctance motor with magnetic flux lines. The switched reluctance motor (SRM) is a type of reluctance motor.Unlike brushed DC motors, power is delivered to windings in the stator (case) rather than the rotor.
An example of the use of orgasm control in partnered sex can be seen in BDSM; the partner whose orgasm is being controlled (sometimes referred to as the submissive partner) can be tied up.
