Le vérin à vis est constitué d’une vis de grand diamètre, en acier, à filet carré ou trapézoïdal, généralement vissée dans un écrou libre en rotation à l'extrémité d’un tube dans lequel elle pénètre. La manœuvre de l'écrou, au moyen d’un bras simple ou à cliquet, ou d’un couple conique commandé par une manivelle, provoque la sortie de la vis, et donc l'éloignement des extrémités opposées de la vis et du tube. Celles-ci prennent appui, le plus souvent par l'intermédiaire de patins, sur des surfaces dont on peut ainsi augmenter l'écartement. Le pas utilisé étant faible, le système est irréversible et ne nécessite pas de dispositif de blocage. Dans d’autres types de vérins à vis, l'écrou est fixe, et c'est la vis que l'on fait tourner [...] 2, record 2, French, - v%C3%A9rin%20%C3%A0%20vis

for "standard deviation" : A great deal of confusion has been introduced into statistical literature by the many different expressions which have been used for the standard deviation and the simple derivatives of it. (...) The term "standard deviation" is now almost universally accepted (...).
