From DIY levitation tricks to clever braking systems, these swirling paths of electrons keep finding new ways to surprise and inspire.

John Hansen, Managing Director/CEO of Ether NDE Ltd, talks to AZoM about Eddy Current Testing. What is an Eddy Current NDT? Eddy Current Testing is one of the many Non-destructive Testing (NDT) ...

Right now, there's something big spinning off the coast from Sydney — a giant rotating vortex of sea water, powerful enough to dominate the ocean currents off south-eastern Australia. Oceanographers ...

Installations prove that Eriez Ultra High-Frequency (UHF) Eddy Current Separators (ECS) recover microfine aluminum, copper and other nonferrous fines from automobile shredder residue, or ASR, that ...

In 1851 when French physicist Léon Foucault discovered the magnetic repelling phenomenon that is used in eddy current separators, he likely did not envision the wide variety of applications in which ...

Lenz’s Law is one of those physics tricks that look like magic if you don’t understand what’s happening. [Seth Robinson] was inspired by the way eddy currents cause a cylindrical neodymium magnet to ...

Eddy current braking systems utilise the generation of induced currents within a conductor, created by changes in magnetic fields, to provide smooth and contactless deceleration in various transport ...

At some point during our primary school careers, most of us probably constructed a simple compass, often by floating a magnetized needle on a cork in a cup of water. The water in such a configuration ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. On land, we’re familiar with heatwaves and cold snaps. But the deep sea also experiences prolonged periods of hot and cold. Marine ...

SANIKA: THE ORLANDO SCIENCE CENTER IS KNOWN FOR USING FUN TRICKS AND CRAFTS TO TEACH KIDS ALL ABOUT DIFFERENT PARTS OF SCIENCE, BUT THIS TIME, ALEX ALECCI IS PARTICIPATING IN THE FUN. SHELDON: -- ...
