of or relating to or in the style of a musical fugue
Definition that contains fugal
- bank a slope in the turn of a road or track; the outside is higher than the inside in order to reduce the effects of centrifugal force
- cant a slope in the turn of a road or track; the outside is higher than the inside in order to reduce the effects of centrifugal force
- centrifuge an apparatus that uses centrifugal force to separate particles from a suspension
- extractor an apparatus that uses centrifugal force to separate particles from a suspension
- camber a slope in the turn of a road or track; the outside is higher than the inside in order to reduce the effects of centrifugal force
- separator an apparatus that uses centrifugal force to separate particles from a suspension
- spin dryer a clothes dryer that uses centrifugal motion to dry the clothes that are put into it
- fugally in a fugal style
- coriolis force (physics) a force due to the earth's rotation; acts on a body in motion (airplane or projectile) in a rotating reference frame; in a rotating frame of reference Newton's second law of motion can be made to apply if in addition to the real forces acting on a body a Coriolis force and a centrifugal force are introduced
- dynamic balance (aeronautics) the state of equilibrium in which centrifugal forces due to a rotating mass (e.g., a propeller) do not produce force in the shaft and so vibration is reduced
