| direct drive | <radiobiology> An approach to inertial-confinement fusion in which the energy of the driver (laser or particle beam) is directly incident on the (usually spherical) target, causing compression heating via ablation of the target surface. (09 Oct 1997) |

| radio frequency current drive | <radiobiology> Plasma waves in the radio-frequency range can be used to push plasma particles in such a way that current forms in the plasma, this is a method of non-inductive current drive which would allow for steady-state fusion reactors to operate. (09 Oct 1997) |

| meiotic drive | Differential fitness in males and females. (05 Mar 2000) |
| current drive | <radiobiology> Any of a variety of techniques used to cause current flow in a plasma. See inductive current drive, RF current drive, non-inductive current drive. Usually applied to schemes used to generate current in tokamaks and other toroidal devices which require internal plasma currents. See: bootstrap current. (09 Oct 1997) |
| drive | 1. To rush and press with violence; to move furiously. "Fierce Boreas drove against his flying sails." (Dryden) "Under cover of the night and a driving tempest." (Prescott) "Time driveth onward fast, And in a little while our lips are dumb." (Tennyson) 2. To be forced along; to be impelled; to be moved by any physical force or agent; to be driven. "The hull drives on, though mast and sail be torn." (Byron) "The chaise drives to Mr. Draper's chambers." (Thackeray) 3. To go by carriage; to pass in a carriage; to proceed by directing or urging on a vehicle or the animals that draw it; as, the coachman drove to my door. 4. To press forward; to aim, or tend, to a point; to make an effort; to strive; usually with at. "Let them therefore declare what carnal or secular interest he drove at." (South) 5. To distrain for rent. To let drive, to aim a blow; to strike with force; to attack. "Four rogues in buckram let drive at me." 1. To impel or urge onward by force in a direction away from one, or along before one; to push forward; to compel to move on; to communicate motion to; as, to drive cattle; to drive a nail; smoke drives persons from a room. "A storm came on and drove them into Pylos." (Jowett (Thucyd)) "Shield pressed on shield, and man drove man along." (Pope) "Go drive the deer and drag the finny prey." (Pope) 2. To urge on and direct the motions of, as the beasts which draw a vehicle, or the vehicle borne by them; hence, also, to take in a carriage; to convey in a vehicle drawn by beasts; as, to drive a pair of horses or a stage; to drive a person to his own door. "How . . . Proud he was to drive such a brother!" (Thackeray) 3. To urge, impel, or hurry forward; to force; to constrain; to urge, press, or bring to a point or state; as, to drive person by necessity, by persuasion, by force of circumstances, by argument, and the like. " Enough to drive one mad." "He, driven to dismount, threatened, if I did not do the like, to do as much for my horse as fortune had done for his." (Sir P. Sidney) 4. To carry or; to keep in motion; to conduct; to prosecute. [Now used only colloquially] "The trade of life can not be driven without partners." (Collier) 5. To clear, by forcing away what is contained. "To drive the country, force the swains away." (Dryden) 6. <chemical> To dig Horizontally; to cut a horizontal gallery or tunnel. 7. To pass away; said of time. Drive, in all its senses, implies forcible or violent action. It is the reverse of to lead. To drive a body is to move it by applying a force behind; to lead is to cause to move by applying the force before, or in front. It takes a variety of meanings, according to the objects by which it is followed; as, to drive an engine, to direct and regulate its motions; to drive logs, to keep them in the current of a river and direct them in their course; to drive feathers or down, to place them in a machine, which, by a current of air, drives off the lightest to one end, and collects them by themselves. "My thrice-driven bed of down." Origin: AS. Drifan; akin to OS. Driban, D. Drijven, OHG. Triban, G. Treiben, Icel. Drifa, Goth. Dreiban. Cf. Drift, Drove. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| inductive current drive | <physics> Method to drive current in a toroidal plasma by using the torus of conducting plasma as the second coil in a transformer. The primary coil usually runs down the centre of the torus, changes in the current driven through the primary coil create changing magnetic fields which drive current in the plasma. The current thus driven can be used to heat the plasma as well (see also ohmic heating, induction). (09 Oct 1997) |
| exploratory drive | The drive typical of toddlers and some animals to investigate the unfamiliar or unknown. (05 Mar 2000) |
| learned drive | Causing motion; having power to move, or tending to move; as, a motive argument; motive power. "Motive faculty. <machinery> " Motive power, a natural agent, as water, steam, wind, electricity, etc, used to impart motion to machinery; a motor; a mover.

| non-direct transmission | <epidemiology> A mode of transmission that differs in some mysterious way from indirect transmission. (05 Dec 1998) |
| direct | 1. Straight, in a straight line. 2. Performed immediately and without the intervention of subsidiary means. Origin: L. Directus (18 Nov 1997) |
| direct acrylic restoration | A direct resin restoration of autopolymerizing acrylic. (05 Mar 2000) |
| direct agglutination | A general term for techniques which use the agglutination (macroscopic clumping) of particulate reagents as an indicator of the presence of an antigen-antibody reaction. Examples (haemagglutination, latex agglutination and coagglutination) follow. (05 Mar 2000) |
| direct B-cell | Lymphocytes responding to a small range of antigens by antibody production without any requirement for T-cells. The antigens include flagellin and pokeweed mitogen. (18 Nov 1997) |
| direct bilirubin | Conjugated bilirubin = Direct bilirubin. Bilirubin that has been chemically attached to a glucuronide in the liver. The bilirubin that is excreted into the bile by the liver and stored in the gallbladder or transferred to the duodenum. Normal direct bilirubin is 0 to 0.3 mg/dl. Greater than normal values can be seen in bile duct obstruction, cirrhosis, Crigler-Najjar syndrome, Dubin-Johnson syndrome and hepatitis. (27 Sep 1997) |
| direct bone impression | An impression of denuded bone, used in the construction of subperiosteal denture implants. (05 Mar 2000) |
