  2. Rainflow-counting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainflow-counting_algorithm

    The rainflow algorithm was developed by T. Endo and M. Matsuishi (an M.S. student at the time) in 1968 and presented in a Japanese paper. The first English presentation by the authors was in 1974. They communicated the technique to N. E. Dowling and J. Morrow in the U.S. who verified the technique and further popularised its use.

  3. Fatigue detection software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatigue_detection_software

    Fatigue detection software is intended to reduce fatigue related fatalities and incidents. Several companies are working on a technology for use in industries such as mining, road- and rail haulage and aviation. The technology may soon find wider applications in industries such as health care and education. [citation needed]

  4. Mining pool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mining_pool

    Mining in pools began when the difficulty for mining increased to the point where it could take centuries for slower miners to generate a block. The solution to this problem was for miners to pool their resources so they could generate blocks more quickly and therefore receive a portion of the block reward on a consistent basis, rather than ...

    Wilhelm Bedzheit Albert (24 January 1787 – 4 July 1846) was a German engineer and mining administrator, best remembered as the first person to record observations of metal fatigue. Albert was born in Hanover and showed early talent as a musician before embarking on the study of law in Göttingen in 1803.

  7. Fatigue Avoidance Scheduling Tool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatigue_Avoidance...

    The Fatigue Avoidance Scheduling Tool (FAST) was developed by the United States Air Force in 2000–2001 to address the problem of aircrew fatigue in aircrew flight scheduling. [2] FAST is a Windows program that allows scientists, planners and schedulers to quantify the effects of various work-rest schedules on human performance.

    The Konami Code. The Konami Code (Japanese: コナミコマンド, Konami Komando, "Konami command"), also commonly referred to as the Contra Code and sometimes the 30 Lives Code, is a cheat code that appears in many Konami video games, [1] as well as some non-Konami games.

  9. Low-cycle fatigue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-cycle_fatigue

    Low cycle fatigue (LCF) has two fundamental characteristics: plastic deformation in each cycle; and low cycle phenomenon, in which the materials have finite endurance for this type of load. The term cycle refers to repeated applications of stress that lead to eventual fatigue and failure; low-cycle pertains to a long period between applications.
