  3. Message sequence chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_Sequence_Chart

    A message sequence chart (or MSC) is an interaction diagram from the SDL family standardized by the International Telecommunication Union. The purpose of recommending MSC (Message Sequence Chart) is to provide a trace language for the specification and description of the communication behaviour of system components and their environment by ...

  4. DSV Alvin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSV_Alvin

    Emergency separation General layout. Alvin was designed as a replacement for bathyscaphes and other less maneuverable oceanographic vehicles. Its more nimble design was made possible in part by the development of syntactic foam, which is buoyant and yet strong enough to serve as a structural material at great depths.

  5. Firing order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firing_order

    For this inline-4 engine, 1-3-4-2 could be a valid firing order.. The firing order of an internal combustion engine is the sequence of ignition for the cylinders.. In a spark ignition (e.g. gasoline/petrol) engine, the firing order corresponds to the order in which the spark plugs are operated.

  6. Commutator (electric) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutator_(electric)

    The windings (coils of wire) on the armature are connected to the commutator segments. Commutators are used in direct current (DC) machines: dynamos (DC generators) and many DC motors as well as universal motors. In a motor the commutator applies electric current to the windings.

  7. Choke (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choke_(electronics)

    A choke usually consists of a coil of insulated wire often wound on a magnetic core, although some consist of a doughnut-shaped ferrite bead strung on a wire. The choke's impedance increases with frequency. Its low electrical resistance passes both AC and DC with little power loss, but its reactance limits the amount of AC passed.

  8. Wasted spark system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wasted_spark_system

    Ignition system of a flat-twin Citroën 2CV. A wasted spark system is a type of ignition system used in some four-stroke cycle internal combustion engines.In a wasted spark system, the spark plugs fire in pairs, with one plug in a cylinder on its compression stroke and the other plug in a cylinder on its exhaust stroke.

  9. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    The pressure on a pressure-temperature diagram (such as the water phase diagram shown above) is the partial pressure of the substance in question. A phase diagram in physical chemistry , engineering , mineralogy , and materials science is a type of chart used to show conditions (pressure, temperature, etc.) at which thermodynamically distinct ...
