Magnetorheological Fluid
A magnetorheological fluid (MR fluid, or MRF) is a type of smart fluid in a carrier fluid, typically oil. MR is a type of smart…
Distributed-element Filter
A distributed-element filter is an electronic filter in which the elements of the circuit (capacitance, inductance, and resistance) are not localized in discrete capacitors, inductors,…
Electrorheological Fluids
Electrorheological (ER) fluids are electrically insulating suspensions of extremely fine non-conducting but electrically active particles (up to 50 micrometres in diameter). These are a type…
Spacetime is Curved in a Quantum Simulator
Curved spacetime is a concept introduced by Einstein’s general theory of relativity, which describes gravity as the curvature of spacetime caused by the presence of…
