gradient magnetic field

gradient magnetic field

a magnetic field that changes in strength in a given direction. Such fields are used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to select a region for imaging and to encode the location of MRI signals received from the object being imaged.

gradient magnetic field

An MRI term for a small linear magnetic field superimposed on the large static magnetic field during an MRI scan, the strength (amplitude) and direction of which change during the scan such that each small volume element (voxel) within the imaging volume resonates at a different frequency, allowing spatial encoding to be performed.

For the implementation of a high-quality finishing surface treatment of special optical workpieces magnetorheological polishing method is used [3, 4], which is based on software-controlled tangential material removal by a magnetorheological polishing fluid (MRPF) jet, formed by the gradient magnetic field, with its local contact with the object of the treatment.
Optimization of regime characteristics of the polishing process is based on the control (weight) of material removal from the workpiece surface, which depends on the pressing force of MRPF filler particles, the velocity of their tangential movements, the amount and distribution of them through the gap in the zone of the gradient magnetic field.
