TL;DR: In this article, a laboratory-scale diamond turning machine with piezoelectric-driven fast tool servo is described, and the capability of this apparatus is demonstrated for high-speed features such as sine wave, square wave, and ramp-shaped surfaces.
Abstract: The fabrication of nonrotationally symmetric surfaces by diamond turning requires tool actuation at a bandwidth significantly higher than the rotational frequency of the surfaces. This requirement cannot be met by standard slide drives due to their large mass and consequent low natural frequency. This articles describes the development of a laboratory-scale diamond-turning machine with piezoelectric-driven fast tool servo. The capability of this apparatus will be demonstrated for high-speed features such as sine wave, square wave, and ramp-shaped surfaces. Also described is the implementation of this fast tool servo on a commercial diamond-turning machine. Several nonrotationally symmetric surfaces have been machined, and their images are included.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the most common types of vibration in transmission lines due to the action of a transverse wind are encountered most frequently at moderate wind velocities (about 5 miles per hr.) and are characterized by high frequencies (5 to 15 cycles per sec.) and small amplitudes (up to a few cable diameters).
Abstract: PHENOMENA of vibration in transmission lines due to the action of a transverse wind are encountered most frequently at moderate wind velocities (about 5 miles per hr.) and are characterized by rather high frequencies (5 to 15 cycles per sec.) and small amplitudes (up to a few cable diameters). This type of vibration is caused by the “Karman” vortices forming behind the wire and is well understood.

TL;DR: This paper reviewed the mounting evidence documenting the existence of a gender gap, which, if ignored, could render large numbers of female students unprepared to meet the technological challenges of the future and made recommendations for ameliorating the technological gender gap.
Abstract: The term “technological gender gap” refers to the idea that males and females have different technology-related attitudes, behaviors, and skills This article reviews the mounting evidence documenting the existence of a gender gap, which, if ignored, could render large numbers of female students unprepared to meet the technological challenges of the future Recommendations for ameliorating the technological gender gap are presented for educators and computer-based instruction (CBI) designers who are interested in providing equitable educational opportunities for male and female students
