induction generator: A machine built as an induction motor and driven above synchronous speed, thus acting as an alternating-current generator; called also asynchronous generator
induction generator: Below synchronism the machine takes in electrical energy and acts as an induction motor; at synchronism the power component of current becomes zero and changes sign, so that above synchronism the machine (driven for this purpose by mechanical power) gives out electrical energy as a generator
induction heating: the heating of a conducting material caused by an electric current induced in it
induction heating: Heating a conducting material by placing it in a rapidly changing magnetic field The changing field induces electric currents in the material and dissipation accounts for the resulting heat
induction heating: Heating by combined electrical resistance and hysteresis losses induced by subjecting a metal to the varying magnetic field surrounding a coil carrying alternating current
induction heating: Heating a conducting material by placing it in a rapidly changing magnetic field the changing field induces electric currents in the material and I2R losses account for the resultant heat
induction heating: Method of raising the temperature of an electrically conductive material by subjecting it to an alternating electromagnetic field. Energy in the electric currents induced in the object is dissipated as heat. Induction heating is used in metalworking to heat metals for soldering, tempering, and annealing, and in induction furnaces for melting and processing metals. The principle of the induction-heating process resembles that of the transformer. A water-cooled coil (inductor), acting as the primary winding of a transformer, surrounds the material to be heated (the workpiece), which acts as the secondary winding. Alternating current flowing in the primary coil induces eddy currents in the workpiece, causing it to become heated. The depth to which the eddy currents penetrate, and therefore the distribution of heat within the object, depend on the frequency of the primary alternating current and the magnetic permeability, as well as the resistivity, of the material

backward induction: In game theory, backward induction is an algorithm used to compute subgame perfect equilibria in sequential games. The process proceeds by first looking at the last possible action and determining what the last player will do in each situation (i.e. in each information set). Using this information, one can then determine what the second to last player will do. This process continues until one determines all possible actions
by means of induction: inspirationally
coefficient of mutual induction: a measure of the induction between two circuits; the ratio of the electromotive force in a circuit to the corresponding change of current in a neighboring circuit; usually measured in henries
coefficient of self induction: the ratio of the electromotive force produced in a circuit by self-induction to the rate of change of current producing it, expressed in henries
electromagnetic induction: Induction of an electromotive force in a circuit by varying the magnetic flux linked with the circuit. The phenomenon was first investigated in 1830-31 by Joseph Henry and Michael Faraday, who discovered that when the magnetic field around an electromagnet was increased or decreased, an electric current could be detected in a separate nearby conductor. A current can also be induced by constantly moving a permanent magnet in and out of a coil of wire, or by constantly moving a conductor near a stationary permanent magnet. The induced electromotive force is proportional to the rate of change of the magnetic flux cutting across the circuit
electromagnetic induction: production of an electric current by changing the magnetic field enclosed by an electrical circuit
electrostatic induction: Modification in the distribution of electric charge on one material under the influence of an electric charge on a nearby object. It occurs whenever any object is placed in an electric field. When a negatively charged object is brought near a neutral object, it induces a positive charge on the near side of the object and a negative charge on the far side. If the negative side of the original object is momentarily grounded, the negative charge may escape, so that the object becomes positively charged by induction
inductions: plural of induction
mathematical induction: Induction
mutual induction: property whereby an electromotive force is induced in a circuit by variation of current in a neighboring circuit
mutual induction: The production of an electromotive force in a circuit resulting from a change of current in a neighboring circuit

mutual induction: induction in a second circuit caused by changes in a first circuit
mutual induction: generation of electromotive forces in each other by two adjacent circuits
mutual induction: electromagnetic induction that occurs between two adjacent conductors carrying electrical currents
problem of induction: Problem of justifying the inductive inference from the observed to the unobserved. It was given its classic formulation by David Hume, who noted that such inferences typically rely on the assumption that the future will resemble the past, or on the assumption that events of a certain type are necessarily connected, via a relation of causation, to events of another type. (1) If we were asked why we believe that the sun will rise tomorrow, we would say that in the past the Earth turned on its axis every 24 hours (more or less), and that there is a uniformity in nature that guarantees that such events always happen in the same way. But how do we know that nature is uniform in this sense? We might answer that, in the past, nature has always exhibited this kind of uniformity, and so it will continue to be uniform in the future. But this inference is justified only if we assume that the future must resemble the past. How do we justify this assumption? We might say that in the past, the future turned out to resemble the past, and so in the future, the future will again turn out to resemble the past. The inference is obviously circular: it succeeds only by tacitly assuming what it sets out to prove, namely that the future will resemble the past. (2) If we are asked why we believe we will feel heat when we approach a fire, we would say that fire causes heat i.e., there is a "necessary connection" between fire and heat, such that whenever one occurs, the other must follow. But, Hume asks, what is this "necessary connection"? Do we observe it when we see the fire or feel the heat? If not, what evidence do we have that it exists? All we have is our observation, in the past, of a "constant conjunction" of instances of fire being followed by instances of heat. This observation does not show that, in the future, instances of fire will continue to be followed by instances of heat; to say that it does is to assume that the future must resemble the past. But if our observation is consistent with the possibility that fire may not be followed by heat in the future, then it cannot show that there is a necessary connection between the two that makes heat follow fire whenever fire occurs. Thus we are not justified in believing that (1) the sun will rise tomorrow or that (2) we will feel heat when we approach a fire. It is important to note that Hume did not deny that he or anyone else formed beliefs about the future on the basis of induction; he denied only that we could know with certainty that these beliefs are true. Philosophers have responded to the problem of induction in a variety of ways, though none has gained wide acceptance
self induction: property whereby an electromotive force is induced in a circuit by a variation of current in the circuit itself
self induction: electromagnetic induction which begins on a conductor due to a change in electrical current carried by it (opposed to the direction of energy flow)
self-induction: generation of an electromotive force (EMF) in a circuit by changing the current in that circuit; usually measured in henries induction in a circuit caused by changes in the circuit itself
