Lectures included advanced electronic circuits, microwave theory, servomechanisms and other topics that might normally be in the upper level at engineering colleges.
22.
A servomechanism is used to generate the large forces needed for these huge valves, power being derived from the pressure of the water itself.
23.
He is well known for his book " Theory of Servomechanisms ", one of the most widely read books in control engineering.
24.
The key development in this area was the introduction of the servomechanism, which produced powerful, controlled movement, with highly accurate measurement information.
25.
With the electronics revolution, single-signal channel circuit design became redundant and instead, radios provided coded signal streams which a servomechanism could interpret.
26.
Lecture topics included advanced algebra, trigonometry, the slide rule, electrical and electronic circuits, communication receivers and transmitters, antennas, and servomechanisms.
27.
In 1934 Hazen published two papers on the theory and design of servomechanisms which provided clear descriptions of the operation of servos and a design methodology.
28.
After the war, servomechanism wizard Jay Forrester financed IBM's move into computers with a huge defense contract to produce an air defense against Soviet bombers.
29.
For example, an automotive power window control is not a servomechanism, as there is no automatic feedback that controls position the operator does this by observation.
30.
Breakout surgeries replace the upper half of his skeleton with an adamantium endo-skeleton ( the skeleton is shown to have a network of hydraulic servomechanisms ).
