Molecular Machinery: различия между версиями

With practice, an experienced user can create this bearing in 10-15 minutes. NanoEngineer-1 includes an extrusion tool for creating rods and rings from a molecular fragment (called a chunk in NanoEngineer-1).

The contraption with spokes connected to the inner shaft is called a [http://nanoengineer-1.net/mediawiki/index.php?title=Feature:Rotary_Motor Rotary Motor]. This is a type of jig in NanoEngineer-1 that applies torque to the atoms to which it is attached during a molecular dynamics simulation, driving the inner shaft. The rotary motor here had a torque setting of 1.0 nN-nm and a speed of 10 GHz. These values are extreme and were used to produce an interesting simulation as quickly as possible. A serious engineer assessing the operating conditions of this bearing would have used more reasonable numbers.
