From: Sunil Shah "We have a small machine for experience and testing in our headquarter ...About the full-size machines: "Both equipment are demonstration models with capacity to generate 30 KW". And "Company founded in 02/04/2006, with its controlling shareholder Renato Bastos Ribeiro and other partners, Aluizio Merlin Merlin Ribeiro and Rogerio Ribeiro... The Three Stooges? And is his name really "Merlin Merlin"?! Talk about wizardry! *lol* Now that we have hammered this topic almost to death, there is still more: do they look like twins or clones ... like the 'Boys from Brazil' (fiction, but 'inspired')? For the sake of argument, let's assume the builders are not fools but superior in genetic ways, thanks to the good Doktor - and certainly they have adequate reason to believe the device works, based on a working model. Is there anything else which can be contributory, besides gravity and the higher derivatives of the position vector with respect to acceleration, and possibly hidden magnets ?
Here is Aspden's lecture on virtual inertia and the so-called Aspden effect of rotational "memory". Is Aspden believable? http://www.haroldaspden.com/lectures/30.htm Personally, to me this effect has always seemed trivial, like the Coriolis, but perhaps these builders have indeed been able to put many trivial effects together, and found synergy. Another "trivial" input can be called "selective application of torque" and it is somewhat like a Maxwell's spin-demon - in that "rotational information" is contributory. This information will permit, in a situation where there is both torque-addition and torque-removal - for the torque-addition to be accomplished in a rapid pulse in a few degrees of rotation, while the removal is uniform. Much of the power removal, but not all, is fed back periodically after being converted to electricity. Selective torque is said to be more efficient than uniform torque - to the degree that more net energy can be removed than applied. This is related to Thane Heins' kool-aid; and the best we can say, is that it has not been proved wrong. Anyway, we cannot be certain that the Boys from Brazil have not cleverly put together, in one device - a number of synergetic but trivial inputs that will, in the end, bring them and their expanding gene pool - fame and fortune... .... allowing for eventual world domination? :-) Ira Levin passed away a few years ago, but this latest twist would make a interesting sequel...
