Fuse (electrical)
In electronics and electrical engineering, a fuse is an electrical safety device that operates to provide overcurrent protection of an electrical circuit. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows through it, thereby stopping or interrupting the current. It is a sacrificial device; once a fuse has operated, it is an open circuit, and must be replaced or rewired, depending on its type. Fuses have been used as essential safety devices from the early days of electrical engineering. Today there are thousands of different fuse designs which have specific current and voltage ratings, breaking capacity, and response times, depending on the application. The time and current operating characteristics of fuses are chosen to provide adequate protection without needless interruption. Wiring regulations usually define a maximum fuse current rating for particular circuits. A fuse can be used to mitigate short circuits, overloading, mismatched loads ...

Fuse (automotive)
Automotive fuses are a class of Fuse (electrical), fuses used to protect the wiring and electrical equipment for vehicles. They are generally rated for circuits no higher than 32 volts direct current, but some types are rated for 42-volt electrical systems. They are occasionally used in non-automotive electrical products. Automotive fuses are typically housed inside one or more fuse boxes (also called an integrated power module (IPM)) within the vehicle, typically on one side of the engine compartment and/or under the dash near the steering wheel. Some fuses or circuit breakers may nonetheless be placed elsewhere, such as near the cabin fan or air bag controller. They also exist as circuit breakers that are resettable using a switch. There may be a fuse for ignition off draw (IOD), which controls the drawing of electric current in a vehicle while it is shut off; removing this fuse while the vehicle is shut off for more than a few weeks will prevent excessive depletion of the batt ...

E-fuse
In computing, an eFuse (electronic fuse) is a microscopic fuse put into a computer chip. This technology was invented by IBM in 2004 to allow for the dynamic real-time reprogramming of chips. In the abstract, computer logic is generally "etched" or "hard-wired" onto a chip and cannot be changed after the chip has finished being manufactured. By utilizing a set of eFuses, a chip manufacturer can allow for the circuits on a chip to change while it is in operation. Mechanism of action eFuses can be made out of silicon or metal traces. In both cases, they work (blow) by electromigration, the phenomenon where electric flow causes the conductor material to move. Although electromigration is generally undesired in chip design as it causes failures, eFuses are made of weak traces that are designed to fail before others do. Uses eFuses were initially marketed by IBM as a way to provide in-chip performance tuning. If certain sub-systems fail, or are taking too long to respond, or ar ...

Fuses (film)
''Fuses'' is a 1967 American experimental short film by Carolee Schneemann. It shows Schneemann's relationship with James Tenney, including their sexual interactions. Production Schneemann made ''Fuses'' from 1964 to 1967, using a Bolex 16 mm camera she had borrowed. She positioned the camera to capture some scenes, and others involved her and Tenney taking turns operating the camera. Stan Vanderbeek shot one segment of Schneemann and Tenney kissing. As the film was being shot, Schneemann continued to manipulate the original footage and reassemble it. She experimented with many techniques to alter the film—applying dyes and acids, baking it in an oven, cutting it up before taping it to blank leader, and hanging it outside during storms to see if it would be struck by lightning. While editing the film, she drew on her experience with painting and conceived of the process "the way I would work on a canvas…working with film as one extended frame in time." Schneemann made ''Fuses ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Fuse (explosives)
In an explosive, pyrotechnics, pyrotechnic device, or military munition, a fuse (or fuze) is the part of the device that initiates function. In common usage, the word fuse is used indiscriminately. However, when being specific (and in particular in a military context), the term ''fuse'' describes a simple pyrotechnic initiating device, like the cord on a firecracker whereas the term ''fuze'' is used when referring to a more sophisticated ignition device incorporating mechanical and/or electronics, electronic components, such as a proximity fuze for an M107 projectile, M107 artillery shell, magnetometer, magnetic or acoustic signature, acoustic fuze on a sea mine, spring-loaded grenade fuze, pencil detonator, or anti-handling device. History Documented evidence suggests that the earliest fuses were first used by the Song dynasty, Song Chinese between the 10th and 12th centuries. After the Chinese invented gunpowder, they began adapting its explosive properties for use in milit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Fuse (Fuse Album)
''Fuse'' is the only studio album by the rock band Fuse. It was recorded in 1968 and released in January 1970, before they broke up and with members going on to form Cheap Trick and Silver Fox. Production and release Fuse was born in Rockford, Illinois, in 1967. A single was released on Ken Adamany's Smack Records label with the tunes "Hound Dog" and "Crusin for Burgers." In 1968, an album was recorded with producer Jackie Mills and released in January 1970. The titles of the single appear on the CD "Re-issue" by Rewind. Critical reception The album was not as successful as the band or label had hoped. According to Richie Unterberger of Allmusic, "The album is an average, perhaps somewhat below average, late-'60s hard rock recording. It looks forward to some facets of '70s metal and art rock in its overwrought vocals, tandem hard rock guitar riffs, and classical-influenced keyboards." Rick Nielsen has nothing good to say about the ''Fuse'' album, stating, "Tom Petersson and I w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Fuse (magazine)
''Fuse'' (stylized in all caps) was a Toronto-based Canadian non-profit arts and culture periodical published by Artons Cultural Affairs Society and Publishing Inc. ''Fuse'' was one of Canada’s longest running alternative art publications. Throughout its 38 year history, the focus has been the interchange between art, media, and politics. The magazine published its final issue in Winter 2013, under the editorial direction of Gina Badger. History ''Centerfold'', an arts newsprint magazine addressing the lack of critical discourse within artist-run culture, was founded in Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 1976. In 1978, ''Centerfold'' relocated to Toronto, and in 1980, the name of the magazine changed to ''Fuse''. The focus of the magazine shifted from "an interdisciplinary artists" magazine to "a cultural news magazine". The publishers of ''Fuse'' incorporated as Artons Cultural Affairs Society and Publishing in 1984. Founding editors ''Centerfold'' founding editors were Clive Robe ...

Munitions
Ammunition, also known as ammo, is the material fired, scattered, dropped, or detonated from any weapon or weapon system. The term includes both expendable weapons (e.g., bombs, missiles, grenades, land mines), and the component parts of other weapons that create the effect on a target (e.g., bullets and warheads). The purpose of ammunition is to project a force against a selected target to have an effect (usually, but not always, lethal). An example of ammunition is the firearm cartridge, which includes all components required to deliver the weapon effect in a single package. Until the 20th century, black powder was the most common propellant used but has now been replaced in nearly all cases by modern compounds. Ammunition comes in a great range of sizes and types and is often designed to work only in specific weapons systems. However, there are internationally recognized standards for certain ammunition types (e.g., 5.56×45mm NATO) that enable their use across diff ...
