    Clutch – a mechanical device which engages and disengages power transmission especially from driving shaft to driven shaft. CNC – (CNC)), the automated control of machining tools (drills, boring tools, lathes) by means of a computer. An NC machine alters a blank piece of material (metal, plastic, wood, ceramic, or composite) to meet precise ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_(mechanical...

    A transmission (also called a gearbox) is a mechanical device which uses a gear set—two or more gears working together—to change the speed, direction of rotation, or torque multiplication/reduction in a machine.

  4. Transmission medium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_medium

    A transmission medium is a system or substance that can mediate the propagation of signals for the purposes of telecommunication. Signals are typically imposed on a wave of some kind suitable for the chosen medium.

    They were developed by Oliver Heaviside who created the transmission line model, and are based on Maxwell's equations. Schematic representation of the elementary component of a transmission line. The transmission line model is an example of the distributed-element model. It represents the transmission line as an infinite series of two-port ...

  8. Stub (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stub_(electronics)

    Stubs can match a load impedance to the transmission line characteristic impedance. The stub is positioned a distance from the load. This distance is chosen so that at that point, the resistive part of the load impedance is made equal to the resistive part of the characteristic impedance by impedance transformer action of the length of the main ...

  9. Overhead power line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhead_power_line

    An overhead power line is a structure used in electric power transmission and distribution to transmit electrical energy along large distances. It consists of one or more conductors (commonly multiples of three) suspended by towers or poles.
