Illustration of the effect of JPEG compression on a slightly noisy image with a mixture of text and whitespace. Text is a screen capture from a Wikipedia conversation with noise added (intensity 10 in Paint.NET). One frame of the animation was saved as a JPEG (quality 90) and reloaded.
Torsional vibrations can lead to seat vibrations or noise at certain speeds. Both reduce the comfort. In ideal power generation (or transmission) systems using rotating parts, the torques applied or reacted are "smooth" leading to constant speeds, and the rotating plane where the power is generated (input) and the plane it is taken out (output ...
A torque converter is a device, usually implemented as a type of fluid coupling, that transfers rotating power from a prime mover, like an internal combustion engine, to a rotating driven load. In a vehicle with an automatic transmission, the torque
Idle creep, sometimes called idle speed or just creep [citation needed] is the default speed that a vehicle with an automatic transmission will move either forward or in reverse when the change lever is in D for drive or R for reverse and the foot is taken off the brake pedal but the accelerator pedal is not depressed. This behaviour is due to ...
Dynaflow (Buick) The Dynaflow was an automatic transmission used in various forms in Buick cars by the General Motors Corporation from 1947 until 1963. The transmission initially used a five-element torque converter, with two impellers and two stators, as well as a planetary gearset that provided two forward speeds plus reverse.
Three-speed sliding-gear non-synchronous transmission Non-synchronous "crash" gearbox; commonly used today in semi-trucks and tractors, and formerly used in automobiles pre-1950s. A non-synchronous transmission, also called a crash gearbox, is a form of manual transmission based on gears that do not use synchronizing mechanisms. They require ...

The K110 was Toyota's first belt-type CVT and production began in August 2000. Toyota said that the transmission was both fuel-efficient and offered high driving performance. The K110 features a torque converter with a long-travel damper to help achieve quiet operation and improved fuel efficiency. Applications: Toyota Opa – 2.0L (2000–2005)
