Sentences with phrase «driven pendulum»

From that moment on, weight - driven pendulum clocks struck the hour at the same intervals, whether in winter or summer, spring or fall, day or night.

Not exact matches

The authorship - policy pendulum will probably swing further toward greater accountability before credit is again the driving force in decisions.

By constantly tuning the laser to drive that aluminum transition, an interaction that only occurs in a tiny window near 1.121 petahertz (1.121 quadrillion cycles per second), the laser's frequency can be stabilized to an exquisitely sensitive degree, allowing it to act as the clock's pendulum.

Also included as standard on all diesel Colorados are the smart diesel exhaust brake system, a special Centrifugal Pendulum Vibration Absorber to reduce noise and vibration, the Z82 trailering package with a hitch receiver and seven - pin connector, a trailer brake controller, a G80 automatic locking rear differential with a 3.42 axle ratio, and two - speed electronic transfer case for four - wheel - drive models.

In aggressive driving, 335i drivers might notice the hybrid's additional mass in the rear — the ActiveHybrid 3's lithium - ion battery resides behind the rear axle, and the weight makes itself known in the form of a vintage Porsche 911 - like pendulum effect if you turn in very quickly.

In fact, only with the combination of disabled stability control and aggressive throttle application will you learn the RWS is two - wheel drive — and then the transition from grip to slip comes so quickly, aided by the pendulum effect of that giant engine, that you'll need to be wide awake to gather it all up, particularly on the road.

The combination of double torsional damper and centrifugal pendulum technology in the torque converter provides drive comfort.

A new centrifugal pendulum - type absorber (in the 2.0 TDI with 100 kW, 120 kW or 130 kW with quattro drive) in the dual - mass flywheel makes engine running even more refined and quieter at low revs, for even earlier upshifting and savings of up to 0.2 liters per 100 km.

The dual - mass flywheel with integrated centrifugal pendulum develops its positive effect when driving at low revs: it balances out rotational unevenness in the event of sudden torque request, thereby promoting vibrational and acoustic comfort when accelerating out of the low engine speed range.

An rpm - adaptive torsion damper with a centrifugal force pendulum largely compensates for undesirable vibrations in the engine; this permits driving from an engine speed range as low as 1,000 revolutions per minute.

But with interest rates driven to dramatic lows by Federal Reserve policy, it's only a matter of time until the pendulum reverses course and bond investors will be forced to deal with a new landscape of rising interest rates.

I see instead an oscillating, in and then out of, balanced pendulum swing, driving and then following trends.
