  2. Galvanometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanometer

    The taut-band movement is a modern development of the D'Arsonval-Weston movement. The jewel pivots and hairsprings are replaced by tiny strips of metal under tension. Such a meter is more rugged for field use.

  3. Multimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

    The meter movement in a moving pointer analog multimeter is practically always a moving-coil galvanometer of the d'Arsonval type, using either jeweled pivots or taut bands to support the moving coil. In a basic analog multimeter the current to deflect the coil and pointer is drawn from the circuit being measured; it is usually an advantage to ...

  5. Variometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variometer

    Common types of variometers include those based on a diaphragm, a vane (horn), a taut band, or are electric based. The vane variometer consists of a rotating vane, centered by a coil spring, dividing a chamber into two parts, one connected to a static port, and the other to an expansion chamber.

  7. Ant on a rubber rope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ant_on_a_rubber_rope

    An ant starts to crawl along a taut rubber rope 1 km long at a speed of 1 cm per second (relative to the rubber it is crawling on). At the same time, the rope starts to stretch uniformly at a constant rate of 1 km per second, so that after 1 second it is 2 km long, after 2 seconds it is 3 km long, etc.

  8. Slip bands in metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_bands_in_metals

    PSB structure (adopted from [7]). Persistent slip-bands (PSBs) are associated with strain localisation due to fatigue in metals and cracking on the same plane. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and three-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD [8]) simulation were used to reveal and understand dislocations type and arrangement/patterns to relate it to the sub-surface structure.

  9. Electronic band structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_band_structure

    Band theory derives these bands and band gaps by examining the allowed quantum mechanical wave functions for an electron in a large, periodic lattice of atoms or molecules. Band theory has been successfully used to explain many physical properties of solids, such as electrical resistivity and optical absorption , and forms the foundation of the ...
