  2. Rotarod performance test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotarod_performance_test

    The speed of the rotarod is mechanically driven, and may either be held constant, or accelerated. [3] A human analog to rotarod test might be treadmill running. Hamster, gerbil, and mouse owners can observe the principle in action when an animal climbs on the outside of its wheel, instead of inside of it. In the rotarod test, however, the ...

  3. Rotational mouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational_mouse

    A rotational mouse is a type of computer mouse which attempts to expand traditional mouse functionality. [1] The objective of rotational mice is to facilitate three degrees of freedom ( 3DOF ) for human-computer interaction by adding a third dimensional input, yaw (or Rz), to the existing x and y dimensional inputs.

  4. Richard F. Lyon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_F._Lyon

    Richard "Dick" Francis Lyon (born 1952) is an American inventor, scientist, and engineer. He is one of the two people who independently invented the first optical mouse devices in 1980.

  5. Rotational frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational_frequency

    Rotational frequency, also known as rotational speed or rate of rotation (symbols ν, lowercase Greek nu, and also n), is the frequency of rotation of an object around an axis. Its SI unit is the reciprocal seconds (s −1 ); other common units of measurement include the hertz (Hz), cycles per second (cps), and revolutions per minute (rpm).

  6. Throbber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throbber

    A throbber animation like that seen on many websites when a blocking action is being performed in the background. A throbber, also known as a loading icon, is an animated graphical control element used to show that a computer program is performing an action in the background (such as downloading content, conducting intensive calculations or communicating with an external device).

  7. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    Cutting speed may be defined as the rate at the workpiece surface, irrespective of the machining operation used. A cutting speed for mild steel of 100 ft/min is the same whether it is the speed of the cutter passing over the workpiece, such as in a turning operation, or the speed of the cutter moving past a workpiece, such as in a milling operation.

  8. Tail suspension test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tail_suspension_test

    The tail suspension test (TST) is an experimental method used in scientific research to measure stress in rodents. It is based on the observation that if a mouse is subjected to short term inescapable stress then the mouse will become immobile .

  9. Wild mouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_Mouse

    A wild mouse is a type of roller coaster consisting of single or spinning cars traversing a tight-winding track with an emphasis on sharp, unbanked turns. The upper portion of the track usually features multiple 180-degree turns, known as flat turns, that produce high lateral G-forces even at modest speeds.
