  2. Synchrocyclotron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchrocyclotron

    Furthermore, the frequency of oscillating electric field in a synchrocyclotron is decreasing continuously instead of kept constant so as to maintain cyclotron resonance for relativistic velocities. One terminal of the oscillating electric potential varying periodically is applied to the dee and the other terminal is on ground potential.

  3. Oscillating water column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscillating_water_column

    Oscillating water columns (OWCs) are a type of wave energy converter [1] that harness energy from the oscillation of the seawater inside a chamber or hollow caused by the action of waves. OWCs have shown promise as a renewable energy source with low environmental impact.

  4. Klystron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klystron

    The electrons thus do work on the electric field, and are decelerated, their kinetic energy is converted to electric potential energy, increasing the amplitude of the oscillating electric field in the cavity. Thus the oscillating field in the catcher cavity is an amplified copy of the signal applied to the buncher cavity.

  5. Stokes problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_problem

    The case for an oscillating far-field flow, with the plate held at rest, can easily be constructed from the previous solution for an oscillating plate by using linear superposition of solutions. Consider a uniform velocity oscillation u ( ∞ , t ) = U ∞ cos ⁡ ω t {\displaystyle u(\infty ,t)=U_{\infty }\cos \omega t} far away from the ...

  6. Cam (mechanism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cam_(mechanism)

    The cam can be seen as a device that converts rotational motion to reciprocating (or sometimes oscillating) motion. [clarification needed] [3] A common example is the camshaft of an automobile, which takes the rotary motion of the engine and converts it into the reciprocating motion necessary to operate the intake and exhaust valves of the cylinders.

  7. Cyclorotor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclorotor

    Cyclorotor before installation on small-scale cyclogyro. A cyclorotor, cycloidal rotor, cycloidal propeller or cyclogiro, is a fluid propulsion device that converts shaft power into the acceleration of a fluid using a rotating axis perpendicular to the direction of fluid motion.

  8. Ring oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_oscillator

    After passing through the time-delay element, this small output voltage change will be presented to the amplifier input. The amplifier has a negative gain of greater than 1, so the output will change in the direction opposite to this input voltage. It will change by an amount larger than the input value, for a gain greater than 1.

  9. Incremental encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incremental_encoder

    The resolution of an incremental encoder is a measure of the precision of the position information it produces. Encoder resolution is typically specified in terms of the number of A (or B) pulses per unit displacement or, equivalently, the number of A (or B) square wave cycles per unit displacement.
