    Wow. I totally agree with You Destin.
    Since I am finishing my medical studies soon the thing completely blew my mind. The moment I saw the magnets being close to each other i thought to myself - "hey, that's how the chondroid tissue in our joints work!". The large molecules called proteoglycans contain many branches of mucopolysaccharides (the "-"). This polarizes water molecules that slide inbetween the layers of our joints (*) so that they don't actually touch each other and are able to withstand the constant stress (friction).
    This may solve the problem orthopedics has to constantly face, namely the fact that todays prosthetic implants are atcually quite short-lasting. The estimated time of life of prosthetic implant is 15-20 years before it becomes rubbed off. Every orthopaedist (at least here, in Poland) had that dilema once - what to do with a patient who needs to undergo a hip or knee replacement, but is relatively young (40-50 y.o.) and his or hers estimated time of life is actually longer than the life of a prosthetic implant?
    Do you have some more information about the actual "maxel" size? What "resolutions" are archieavable? What is the closest archieavable spring distance?
    (*) To illustrate. Let's say the water molecule looks like that: (--+) and the joint is like: -- ]. The static charge in our joint is like: -- ] (+--)(--+) [ -- . Hope my little scheme put more light to my previous words.

    I remember as a small boy in the early 60's when a telephone repairman came around to do some work on a nearby utility pole. I watched enthralled as the lineman went about his work. He must've been a father, because he saw me watching and probably understood the interest as I questioned him about the gaffs he used to climb the pole, the harness belt and his tools. Long story short, he took the time to talk with this little boy and as a parting gift, he gave me two "u" shaped magnets. I was hooked! In that moment that man advance my hunger for knowledge, and created a love for magnets that still lives in this now old grandpa's mind. Keep doing what you're doing Destin. It will pay exponential dividends that you cannot imagine. Thanks!

    @Nighthawkinlight 8 лет назад +305

    Ok, so I'm trying to make sense of this one. These guys are taking the neodymium discs prior to their being magnetized, and somehow their machine must be able to focus an incredibly narrow magnetic field onto the surface to achieve magnetization of only the selected 'maxel' area? The precision alone is incredible. I would love to see the internals of the field generator. I wonder if they are not careful in the patterns they choose if the magnets can be given massive internal stresses that make them want to break themselves apart. Another thing: I had always assumed that the polarity of a magnet really doesn't play much of a role in how strongly it attracts ferromagnetic materials, but I now see I've been looking at it narrow mindedly as with these magnets the polarity can manipulate the intensity of the field itself over a given distance. Shoot, you show magnets at 5:00 that have had their fields manipulated for a tight reach, I wonder if the opposite is possible? A pattern of magnetization that causes multiple fields to converge at a specific point in space that is above the magnet's surface, like the focal point of a parabola? I would just love to play around with a few of these magnets and see how diamagnetic materials react to the tight reaching fields. My curiosity has been piqued. Thanks for the brain candy Destin

    • @Nighthawkinlight
      @Nighthawkinlight 8 лет назад +10

      +pheredeath Yes, probably the longest field is accomplished by simple polarity, but length is not what I'm most curious about. I wonder if a magnet can be made where the highest intensity of it's field is located at a point above it's surface. Objects attracted to such a magnet would be held some distance away, suspended in the air where the fields converge.

    This "MAXELS" can also be found on a hard drive discs (HDD) of computers (not SSD). They save data in a very similar way this "maxel printer" works. If you look at 8:05 you can see red and blue dots on a disc. Example: On a HDD red is binary state 1 and blue is binary state 0. So when the "disc analyser" arm of HDD moves to a certain point on a disc/certain dot it reads the state. Combining this dots into a combination you get data. :)

  • @greese007
    @greese007 3 года назад +2

    I love your series, and I have a request.
    One of the most mind- bending facts about magnets is that the magnetic field is not attached to the magnet. Meaning that rotating the magnet around its symmetry axis does not rotate the field.
    This can be demonstrated by separating two closely spaced disk magnets with a piece of paper, or cardboard, or glass, then rotating one of them. If the field is pinned to the magnet, the other one should also rotate. But it doesn't.
    I did my own experiment to verify this. You could show this with much better visualizations than I could, and reach a much wider audience. I used two neodymium disk magnets, separated by a layer of cardboard, and spun one of them with an electric drill, while the magnetically connected one remained stationary.

      +Mohammed Zaid I've used computer keyboards dating back to the 1960s that used two annular ferrite magnets surrounding a reed switch. The magnets have like-poles facing, giving the spring effect, while the reed switch reacts to the change in position. Perfectly sealed mechanism, no springs at all.
      For a time in the 1990's, there was a high-priced titanium flute produced that used magnets to provide "springs" for the keywork. As I recall, most musicians didn't like it--the "feel" was all wrong--same issue with the keyboard--it felt kind of "mushy". Magnet springs apparently don't follow Hook's law WRT linearity.

      @RexGalilae 8 лет назад

      The magnetic springs you're talking about are simple ones every kid with two ring magnets has discovered. But this lock mechanism thing is really new.
      While humans aren't callibrated (or used) to Inverse-Square law springs, I guess machines using springs can be. I believe this, combined with that lock mechanism can open new doors for engineers and inventors. They can also provide machines with more durability and these guys have made it possible to make powerful magnets that also don't cause interference, so it might be applied to bigger machines as well.
      Just my opinion.
