  2. Amplidyne - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplidyne

    Amplidyne circuit as used in U.S. Navy naval gun control. This is a high-power position servo system. The amplidyne was first used in the US Navy in servo systems to control the electric motors rotating naval gun mounts, to aim the gun at a target. The system (diagram right) is a feedback control system in which a feedback signal from a sensor ...

  3. Electrostatic generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_generator

    12" Quadruple Sector-less Wimshurst Machine (Bonetti Machine) An electrostatic generator, or electrostatic machine, is an electrical generator that produces static electricity, or electricity at high voltage and low continuous current. The knowledge of static electricity dates back to the earliest civilizations, but for millennia it remained ...

  4. Infinitesimal generator (stochastic processes) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinitesimal_generator...

    Infinitesimal generator (stochastic processes) In mathematics — specifically, in stochastic analysis — the infinitesimal generator of a Feller process (i.e. a continuous-time Markov process satisfying certain regularity conditions) is a Fourier multiplier operator [1] that encodes a great deal of information about the process.

  5. Vortex generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_generator

    A vortex generator ( VG) is an aerodynamic device, consisting of a small vane usually attached to a lifting surface (or airfoil, such as an aircraft wing) [1] or a rotor blade of a wind turbine. [2] VGs may also be attached to some part of an aerodynamic vehicle such as an aircraft fuselage or a car. When the airfoil or the body is in motion ...

  6. Standby generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standby_generator

    Standby generator. A standby generator is a back-up electrical system that operates automatically. [1] Within seconds of a utility outage an automatic transfer switch senses the power loss, commands the generator to start and then transfers the electrical load to the generator. The standby generator begins supplying power to the circuits. [2]

    Six defeats Weaver, and Rex is taken to Purgatory Base, located on a remote desert island in the South Pacific, to offload the remainder of his nanites. As Rex walks off to explore the island with Bobo, Six and Holiday privately discuss Rex's nature. 7. 7. "Leader of the Pack". Sam Montes. Alexx Van Dyne. June 4, 2010.

  8. Linear alternator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_alternator

    A linear alternator is essentially a linear motor used as an electrical generator . An alternator is a type of alternating current (AC) electrical generator. The devices are often physically equivalent. The principal difference is in how they are used and which direction the energy flows. An alternator converts mechanical energy to electrical ...

  9. Principle of no-work-no-pay (dies non) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_no-work-no...

    Doctrine of "no-work-no-pay". The doctrine of "no-work-no-pay" is a fundamental axiom in industrial relations. The philosophy are very simple. When a person is employed, it is expected that the work assigned will be carried out. When this work is not done, the employee is not eligible for payment of any salary. [5]
