Closely related to the telluric and particularly to the magnetotelluric methods is a technique based on the measurement of natural magnetic fields at audio and subaudio frequencies. Known as "AFMAG"(for audio-frequency magnetic fields), this technique was introduced early in 1958 by S. H. Ward.... The basic principle of the method is to measure the tilt of the plane of polarization of the audio-frequency fields. The azimuth is first determined to the nearest 10° or so with a detecting unit. The tilt is then measured along this azimuth... The dip angles are plotted in profile form; anomalies on the profile can be interpreted on the basis of experience gained over known conducting bodies. 5, record 5, English, - audio%20frequency%20magnetic%20technique

Dextre [Special Purpose Dexterous Manipulator] is designed so that only one arm can move at a time in order to avoid self-collision, achieve greater stability and maintain operational similarity with Canadarm2. The greater stability is provided by the immobile arm, which is first commanded to anchor Dextre to an ISS [International Space Station] stabilization point. At the tip of each arm, we find a "hand", known technically as the Orbital Replacement Unit/Tool Changeout Mechanism(OTCM). The OTCM consists of a set of parallel retractable jaws, which serve to grip payloads and tools. Each OTCM is also equipped with a retractable motorized socket wrench to mate and demate mechanisms on-orbit, as well as lights and a black and white camera. Dextre lower body is equipped with a pair of pan/tilt colour cameras that allow astronauts aboard the ISS, and engineers on the ground, to monitor the task, which is out of direct eyesight. 1, record 9, English, - orbital%20replacement%20unit%2Ftool%20changeout%20mechanism

Dextre [Manipulateur Agile Spécialisé] ne peut toutefois bouger qu'un bras à la fois afin d'éviter les autocollisions, d'assurer une plus grande stabilité et de conserver une similarité opérationnelle avec le Canadarm2. Sa grande stabilité lui vient du bras immobile qui est commandé pour ancrer Dextre à un point de stabilisation sur la Station spatiale internationale dès le début des activités. Au bout de chaque bras se trouve une «main», que l'on désigne techniquement par changeur d'outils et d'unités remplaçables sur orbite (OTCM). L'OTCM comprend un ensemble de mâchoires parallèles rétractables servant à la préhension de charges utiles et d'outils. Outre des lampes et une caméra noir et blanc, il est également équipé d'une clé à douilles motorisée et rétractable pour accoupler et désaccoupler des mécanismes sur orbite. La partie inférieure de Dextre est dotée d'une paire de caméras panoramiques basculantes couleur qui permettent aux astronautes de la Station et aux ingénieurs au sol de surveiller l'exécution d'une tâche qui ne se trouve pas directement dans leur champ de vision. 1, record 9, French, - changeur%20d%27outils%20et%20d%27unit%C3%A9s%20rempla%C3%A7ables%20sur%20orbite

In a skidding turn, the gyro precesses towards the inside of the turn. After return on the aircraft to straight and level flight, the instrument shows a turn in the direction of the skid. In a normal turn, the gyro precesses towards the inside of the turn. The precession error is quickly corrected by the erecting mechanism. 2, record 11, English, - erecting%20mechanism

The only really tricky part of the attitude indicator is its erecting mechanism. When power(vacuum) is first applied to the instrument, the mechanism quickly erects the gyro spindle to plumb-vertical in order to align the artificial horizon with the natural horizon. In flight, the erecting mechanism continually compensates the gyro for precession errors in order to keep it aligned throughout the course of a long flight. The design of the erecting mechanism is quite clever. In an air-driven attitude gyro, there are "pendulous vanes" suspended from pivots attached to the lower portion of the sealed gyro housing, one vane for each exhaust port. The vanes are positioned so that, when the gyro is erect, each vane half-covers its associated exhaust port. If the gyro tilts so that its axle is not plumb, the pendulous vanes shift so that one exhaust port is more-than-half-covered and the opposite exhaust port is less-than-half-covered. The resulting imbalance of discharge air exerts a force on the rotor housing at right angles to the direction of tilt, causing the gyro to precess to the erect position. As soon as the gyro is erect, the pendulous vanes return to a balanced condition to remove the precessing force. Pure magic! The erecting mechanism can erect the gyro quite quickly at initial power-up because the gyro doesn’t exhibit much gyroscopic rigidity at low rotor RPMs. Typically, the horizon bar becomes level within the first 10 or 15 seconds, and then its oscillations(caused by precessional nutation of the gyro) are damped out within a minute or so as the rotor comes up-to-speed. 3, record 11, English, - erecting%20mechanism

The axis of the kinetic and dynamic(gyroscopic) moments produced by a CMG are changing in the satellite reference system : they rotate in the plane perpendicular to the tilt axis. Moreover, the higher the dynamic moment, the faster they rotate. To generate a kinetic or dynamic moment in a given direction, it is necessary to combine at least three elementary kinetic moments or gyroscopic torques in variable, non-coplanar directions. 1, record 13, English, - kinetic%20moment

Garde-cap. Il s'agit d'un gyroscope que l'on maintient horizontal et qui définit une direction fixe dans le plan horizontal à sa dérive près. Le gyroscope est monté à la Cardan comme dans le cas du compas mais il n'est pas balourdé. Un détecteur d'horizon monté sur la caisse de tore délivre un signal proportionnel à l'inclinaison du moment cinétique; ce signal est traité et est envoyé dans un moteur couple d'axe cd qui crée un couple vertical ramenant le moment cinétique horizontal. 1, record 13, French, - moment%20cin%C3%A9tique

Indicateur de verticale. C'est un appareil comportant un gyroscope dont le moment cinétique est dirigé au mieux suivant la verticale. Le carter du gyroscope est monté à la Cardan suivant les axes de roulis ou de tangage du bâtiment. Les pendules détecteurs (roulis ou tangage) détectent les écarts de verticale, leurs signaux sont amplifiés dans des amplificateurs et ils alimentent les moteurs couples correspondants (roulis ou tangage) de façon à ramener les signaux des pendules à zéro, le moment cinétique du gyroscope est ainsi maintenu vertical. 1, record 13, French, - moment%20cin%C3%A9tique

Wafer steppers(or projection step-and-repeat mask aligners) are one of the three types of mask aligners currently being used for the fabrication of integrated circuits. The other two types are contact/proximity and projection scanners.... Wafer steppers operate in one of two modes. The "first-generation" steppers use fixed steps, with no references to local targets in mid-wafer. Later-design steppers have the capability to re-reference periodically, typically at each field exposure step. The most sophisticated steppers can make adjustments to X, Y, [THETA](rotation), Z(focus), and two-dimensional tilt to attain the ultimate in overlay accuracy and resolution. 1, record 14, English, - wafer%20stepper
