remanence
(redirected from remanent)

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Legal, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
remanence
The persistence of residual magnetism (on magnetic storage media) or deformations (on optical media) that may carry information susceptible to discovery using special techniques. To avoid compromise of confidential information, one can destroy data by repeated overwriting with random data.
remanence [′rem·ə·nəns]
(electromagnetism)
The magnetic flux density that remains in a magnetic circuit after the removal of an applied magnetomotive force; if the magnetic circuit has an air gap, the remanence will be less than the residual flux density.

of soft phase, showed that Pebax Rnew has a lower remanent deformation than its fossil equivalent (figure 8).
Such structural changes resulted in enhanced ferroelectric response with larger remanent polarization and shorter switching time [11, 12].
Apparent density and magnetic susceptibility were measured before measuring the behaviour of the natural remanent magnetization (NRNi).
