    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypersonic_weapon

    The Silbervogel was the first design for a hypersonic weapon and was developed by German scientists in the 1930s, but was never constructed. [6]The ASALM (Advanced Strategic Air-Launched Missile) was a medium-range strategic missile program developed in the late 1970s for the United States Air Force; the missile's development reached the stage of propulsion-system testing, test-flown to Mach 5 ...

    Then, the hard hammer was relegated to the first stages of making an artifact: the initial roughing, the primary workmanship (the creation of preforms, which would later be refined with a soft or pressure hammer), the attack of percussion planes inaccessible to the soft hammer, the preparation of percussion platforms in certain nuclei, etc.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackhammer

    A jackhammer (pneumatic drill or demolition hammer in British English) is a pneumatic or electro-mechanical tool that combines a hammer directly with a chisel. It was invented by William McReavy, who then sold the patent to Charles Brady King. [1] Hand-held jackhammers are generally powered by compressed air, but some are also powered by ...

    The diehard tests are a battery of statistical tests for measuring the quality of a random number generator (RNG). They were developed by George Marsaglia over several years and first published in 1995 on a CD-ROM of random numbers. [1] In 2006, the original diehard tests were extended into the dieharder tests.

  8. Permanent magnet synchronous generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_magnet...

    A permanent magnet synchronous generator is a generator where the excitation field is provided by a permanent magnet instead of a coil. The term synchronous refers here to the fact that the rotor and magnetic field rotate with the same speed, because the magnetic field is generated through a shaft-mounted permanent magnet mechanism, and current is induced into the stationary armature.

  9. Lehmer random number generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lehmer_random_number_generator

    The generator computes an odd 128-bit value and returns its upper 64 bits. This generator passes BigCrush from TestU01, but fails the TMFn test from PractRand. That test has been designed to catch exactly the defect of this type of generator: since the modulus is a power of 2, the period of the lowest bit in the output is only 2 62, rather than ...
