"Technologically," says Mr. Peterson, "the neatest thing we've seen lately is in motion control. We're applying the most advanced motion control products as they become available. In laser cutting for example, we've applied linear motors to X- and Y-axis positioning tables under our laser cutters and welders. We're getting acceleration and deceleration rates approaching 2 g's, which is letting us move work at rates approaching the oscillating speed of the laser itself. 1, record 1, English, - oscillating%20speed

The diagnostic use of word association tests as a tool declined with the knowledge that response frequency varies with age, socioeconomic and educational level, sex, cultural background, and other personality factors because it appeared that proper interpretation of scores required norms on many subgroups and additional information about the subject. Nevertheless, the Kent-Rosanoff test has retained its position as a standard laboratory technique. 1, record 2, English, - Kent%2DRosanoff%20test

According to ANAPS, 1968, p. 505, and WOBEH, 1974, p. 381, the Kent-Rosanoff test is a different approach to Jung's free association test. It is sometimes simply designated as word association test (cf. WOBEH, 1974, p. 381). 4, record 2, English, - Kent%2DRosanoff%20test

Il arrive que l’analyse par octave ne donne pas de résultats suffisamment précis, étant donné que chaque octave est affectée d’un seul chiffre correspondant au niveau de pression acoustique global dans l’octave. [...] Aussi on utilise [...] la possibilité de faire une analyse plus fine par bandes de tiers d’octave.
