A podded propulsor is defined as a propulsion or maneuvering device, which is external to the ship's hull and houses a propeller powering capability. This distinguishes them from azimuthing thrusters, which have their propulsor powering machinery located within the ship's hull and commonly drive the propeller through a system of shafting and spiral bevel gearing.  3, record 1, English, - podded%20propulsor

The Kerrison Predictor was one of the first fully automated anti-aircraft fire-control systems. The Predictor solved the problem by doing all of the calculations mechanically through a complex system of gears. Inputs to its calculations included wind speed, ballistics of the gun and the rounds it fired, angle to the target in azimuth and altitude, and a user-input estimated target speed. Some of these inputs were fed in by dials, which turned gearing inside the Predictor to calculate the range(from the change in angle and estimated speed) and direction of motion.  1, record 2, English, - Kerrison%20Predictor

[The vertical speed indicator] contains a diaphragm with connecting linkage and gearing to the indicator pointer inside an airtight case. The inside of the diaphragm is connected directly to the static line of the pilot-static system. The area outside the diaphragm, which is inside the instrument case, is also connected to the static line, but through a restricted orifice(calibrated leak).  2, record 3, English, - calibrated%20leak

Le principe du variomètre repose sur la mesure de variation de la pression atmosphérique lors d'une montée ou d'une descente. Pour ce faire, un variomètre est constitué par exemple d'une capsule manométrique reliée à un réservoir isolé thermiquement, l'ensemble étant mis en relation avec l'air libre (atmosphère ambiante) par l'intermédiaire d'un tube capillaire calibré.  3, record 3, French, - tube%20capillaire%20calibr%C3%A9

Gearing a compressor directly to the engine is a wonderfully simple system. You don’t have to worry about compressing the air too much [term : over-boost] because the amount of pressure boost is directly proportional to engine speed, and therefore limited by the engine speed. Since the compressor is attached to the engine it is easy to deliver oil to the shaft that the compressor spins on. Another advantage of the gear driven supercharger is that some engine configurations,(mainly a radial engine) allow placement of the compressor in compact space.  2, record 5, English, - gear%2Ddriven%20supercharger

The project is named the Autonomous Space Processor for Orbital Debris(ASPOD) and is a NASA/Universities Space Research Association(USRA) sponsored design project. The development of ASPOD and the students’ abilities in designing and building a prototype spacecraft are the ultimate goals of this project. This year's focus entailed the development of a secondary robotic arm and end-effector to work in tandem with an existent arm in the removal of orbital debris. The new arm features the introduction of composite materials and a linear drive system, thus producing a light-weight and more accurate prototype. The main characteristic of the end-effector design is that it incorporates all of the motors and gearing internally, thus not subjecting them to the harsh space environment. Furthermore, the arm and the end-effector are automated by a control system with positional feedback. This system is composed of magnetic and optical encoders connected to a 486 PC via two servo-motor controller cards. Programming a series of basic routines and sub-routines has allowed the ASPOD prototype to become more autonomous. The new system is expected to perform specified tasks with a positional accuracy of 0. 5 cm.  2, record 7, English, - autonomous%20space%20processor%20for%20orbital%20debris
