3. Shock absorber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_absorber

   It also does not have a compression valve, whose role has been taken up by the dividing piston, and although it contains nitrogen gas, the gas in a mono-tube shock is under high pressure (260-360 p.s.i. or so) which can actually help it to support some of the vehicle's weight, something which no other shock absorber is designed to do. [8 ...

4. Thyratron - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyratron

   Reference 2D21 tube is 2 + 1 ⁄ 8 in (54 mm) tall. A thyratron is a type of gas-filled tube used as a high-power electrical switch and controlled rectifier. Thyratrons can handle much greater currents than similar hard-vacuum tubes. Electron multiplication occurs when the gas becomes ionized, producing a phenomenon known as a Townsend discharge.

5. Gas-filled tube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas-filled_tube

   A gas-filled tube, also commonly known as a discharge tube or formerly as a Plücker tube, is an arrangement of electrodes in a gas within an insulating, temperature-resistant envelope. Gas-filled tubes exploit phenomena related to electric discharge in gases , and operate by ionizing the gas with an applied voltage sufficient to cause ...

6. Expansion tube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_tube

   The driven section is filled to a lower pressure with the test gas of interest. The third section of tubing, named the expansion section, includes a light gas at very low pressure. During the time that the driver or driven diaphragm out of function, the driver gas expands into the driven section. A shock wave comes into being which propagates ...

   Speedway started in 1952 as Speedway 79, the name of a fuel chain based in Michigan.Unlike other fuel station chains at the time, Speedway 79 did not have a service station to perform vehicle maintenance, but rather vending machines that focused on cigarette and soft drink sales, giving their locations the nickname "Smokes and Cokes".

8. Magnetorheological damper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetorheological_damper

   A magnetorheological damper or magnetorheological shock absorber is a damper filled with magnetorheological fluid, which is controlled by a magnetic field, usually using an electromagnet. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] This allows the damping characteristics of the shock absorber to be continuously controlled by varying the power of the electromagnet.

9. De Carbon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Carbon

   The de Carbon hydraulic shock absorber was invented in 1953, by Christian Bourcier de Carbon. [1] The De Carbon Company was also established in 1953; however, in 1997, Delphi gained control of the entire company. When BeijingWest Industries acquired the brakes and suspensions business of Delphi in 2009, BWI Group acquired the de Carbon brand. [2]
