  2. Zeta (automobile) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeta_(automobile)

    Zeta Sedan. Zeta is a marque of automobile which was produced in Australia from 1963 to 1965 by South Australian manufacturing company Lightburn & Co.. An established manufacturer of cement mixers and washing machines, Lightburn and Co. built the cars in its factory in the Adelaide suburb of Camden Park.

  3. Axes conventions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axes_conventions

    For positive y- and z-axis, we have to face two different conventions: In case of land vehicles like cars, tanks etc., which use the ENU-system (East-North-Up) as external reference (World frame), the vehicle's (body's) positive y- or pitch axis always points to its left, and the positive z- or yaw axis always points up. World frame's origin is ...

  4. Stability derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_derivatives

    "X" or "x" axis runs from back to front along the body, called the Roll Axis. "Y" or "y" axis runs left to right along the wing, called the Pitch Axis. "Z" or "z" runs from top to bottom, called the Yaw Axis. Two slightly different alignments of these axes are used depending on the situation: "body-fixed axes", and "stability axes".

  5. Z-pinch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-pinch

    In fusion power research, the Z-pinch (zeta pinch) is a type of plasma confinement system that uses an electric current in the plasma to generate a magnetic field that compresses it (see pinch). These systems were originally referred to simply as pinch or Bennett pinch (after Willard Harrison Bennett ), but the introduction of the θ-pinch ...

  6. 2.5D (machining) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2.5D_(machining)

    A 2.5D machine, also called a two-and-a-half-axis mill, possesses the capability to translate in all three axes but can perform the cutting operation only in two of the three axes at a time due to hardware or software limitations, or a machine that has a solenoid instead of a true, linear Z axis. A typical example involves an XY table that ...

  7. Inverted pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_pendulum

    The inverted pendulum is a classic problem in dynamics and control theory and is widely used as a benchmark for testing control algorithms (PID controllers, state-space representation, neural networks, fuzzy control, genetic algorithms, etc.). Variations on this problem include multiple links, allowing the motion of the cart to be commanded ...

  8. Keyhole problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyhole_problem

    This will pose practical issues for a physical system with a motor than can only move the azimuthal axis at a limited rate and acceleration. And so the keyhole problem is a fundamental issue for any real azimuth-elevation type tracking system, even if designed to reach the whole range of half-hemispherical angles.

  9. Image stabilization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_stabilization

    Image stabilization (IS) is a family of techniques that reduce blurring associated with the motion of a camera or other imaging device during exposure.. Generally, it compensates for pan and tilt (angular movement, equivalent to yaw and pitch) of the imaging device, though electronic image stabilization can also compensate for rotation about the optical axis ().
