  2. Self-absorption paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-absorption_paradox

    The self-absorption paradox describes the contradictory association whereby higher levels of self-awareness are simultaneously associated with higher levels of psychological distress and with psychological well-being. In 1999, Trapnell and Campbell explored the self-absorption paradox in relation to private self-consciousness or attention to ...

  3. Wichita Lineman - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wichita_Lineman

    Webb wrote "Wichita Lineman" in response to Campbell's urgent phone request for a "place"-based or "geographical" song to follow up "By the Time I Get to Phoenix". [5]His lyrical inspiration came while driving through the high plains of the Oklahoma panhandle past a long line of telephone poles, on one of which perched a lineman speaking into his handset.

    Campbell diagram. Analytical Campbell Diagram for a Simple Rotor. A Campbell diagram plot represents a system's response spectrum as a function of its oscillation regime. It is named for Wilfred Campbell, who introduced the concept. [1][2] It is also called an interference diagram. [3]

  5. Loading coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loading_coil

    Campbell was tasked with continuing the investigation into Stone's bimetallic cable, but soon abandoned it in favour of the loading coil. His was an independent discovery: Campbell was aware of Heaviside's work in discovering the Heaviside condition, but unaware of Heaviside's suggestion of using loading coils to enable a line to meet it.

  6. Electric power transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_transmission

    The combined transmission and distribution network is part of electricity delivery, known as the electrical grid. Efficient long-distance transmission of electric power requires high voltages. This reduces the losses produced by strong currents. Transmission lines use either alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC).

  7. History of electric power transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_electric_power...

    Electric power transmission, the tools and means of moving electricity far from where it is generated, date back to the late 19th century. They include the movement of electricity in bulk (formally called "transmission") and the delivery of electricity to individual customers ("distribution"). In the beginning, the two terms were used ...

  9. Overhead power line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhead_power_line

    Overhead lines or overhead wires are used to transmit electrical energy to trams, trolleybuses or trains. Overhead line is designed on the principle of one or more overhead wires situated over rail tracks. Feeder stations at regular intervals along the overhead line supply power from the high-voltage grid.
