Netting. Perhaps nowhere in cash management is there an opportunity to cut costs as readily as through the implementation of a netting system. This allows companies to "net" intracompany payments so that fewer transactions will occur. Firms have realized that they can sharply reduce the number of foreign exchange transactions and funds transfers by offsetting payments among subsidiaries within a corporate group. 2, record 3, English, - netting

The next generation of "agile" observation satellites will probably be controlled by high dynamic torque actuators called gyrodynes. The gyrodyne uses the principle of the gyroscope to exert a force on a satellite, to change its attitude. The gyrodyne consists of a top spinning around a tilt axis. 3, record 5, English, - control%20moment%20gyroscope
Record number: 5, Textual support number: 2 CONT
A CMG (control moment gyro) is an actuator consisting of a spinner with a sustained kinetic moment modulus h and one or two motor-driven tilt axes. One-axis CMGs are used to generate very high dynamic moments. The produced gyroscopic torque is proportional to h and to the precession rate (i.e. tilting rate). 5, record 5, English, - control%20moment%20gyroscope

Les actionneurs gyroscopiques également appelés gyrodynes (CMG : Control Moment Gyro) constituent un nouveau système d'actionneurs qui permettent de générer des couples dynamiques de commande de basculement d'attitude d'un satellite.

La prochaine génération de satellites d'observation, appelés satellites agiles, sera probablement commandée par des actionneurs à fort couple dynamique : les gyrodynes. Fonctionnant sur le principe des gyroscopes, ils peuvent agir sur les satellites et les orienter dans une attitude donnée. Les gyrodynes sont constitués d'une toupie en rotation rapide entretenue autour d'un axe propre, la commande permettant de faire tourner ce dernier autour d'un axe de précession, ou de basculement [...] 6, record 5, French, - actionneur%20gyroscopique
