ACRONYM for Bessler technology anyone?

Thinking up an acronym, such as RADAR and LASER, to describe the new Bessler technology might be an interesting project, as suggested by Bill Mothershead in a comment recently.

In the early days of the internet, I formed a research group along with half a dozen others from around the world, which we called BORG, "Bessler Orffyreus Research Group".  We have long since gone our separate ways although some of the members are still active in this field.  I had also spent many moments considering options to describe this technology, just as Bill suggested, and I was unable to come up with anything as simple as the above acronyms.

LASER stands for "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation", which is a good if extremely brief description of the concept, but not the details required to build it. Similarly RADAR stands for "RAdio Detection And Ranging", another brief description of the basic concept.

So in our case we need a brief description of the concept which needn't include any description of how it is achieved.  At its simplest we need just the simple description of what it is designed to do, which, to those of us who believe Bessler's wheel was driven by gravity alone, means something along the lines of "Gravity Impelled Rotation GIR and you can add an 'O' for Orffyreus to make GIR-O but the term is too commonly in use for other things so no good.  We need a word not currently in use

You get the picture - it's not as easy as it looks.  Any suggestions welcome.

  5. I like to call such devices as "Self Sustaining Devices". Bessler wheels would belong to a sub-class of SSD, like "Self Sustaining Gravity-Based Power Generators"

  12. Here's some newly invented acronyms.
    S.P.A.T.C.H. = Something Physicists Actually Thought Couldn't Happen.
    P.S.Y.C.H.A.M.P. = Physicists Said You Cannot Have Any Mobile Perpetuum.
    RO.D.A.N. = ROtating Day And Night.
    RO.CON. = ROtating CONtinuously.

  14. My goodness Stevo! You've certainly com eup with a crop of suggestions - thanks mate! You certainly given me cause for thought. Some of yours come close to my own thoughts but you have found additional word to use and that opens up more possibilities.

    So far I like GEM; and I kind of like GRAVITOR and SOS too, Michel, althouhg SOS has other connotations so might not be a possibility.

    Other words might include:-

    Gravity, wheel, non-stop, ceaseless, perpetual, continuous, energy, power, fuelless, gravity-enabled, free, endless, gyrate, gyration, spin, spinning, ound,around, turning etc etc.

  24. John,
    while following up on Michel's idea of linking a name to mythology, I came across, Taranis and Ixion, but when I checked out Clotho, the lady of the spinning wheel, I came to an entry called Clothoid Loop. A shape you may be well familiar with, since your trip to Florida.
    However, the mechanics of the loop are very interesting, and may be of use to some of your wheel building ideas.
