Sphaerotheriida
|
Sphaerotheriida -LRB- from the Latin sphaerium = ball -RRB- is an order of millipedes in the infraclass Pentazonia , sometimes known as giant pill millipedes . They inhabit Southern Africa , Madagascar , South and Southeast Asia , Australia and New Zealand . Like the Northern Hemisphere pill millipedes of the order Glomerida , these millipedes can roll into a ball when disturbed . When they are rolled-up , most sphaerotheriidans reach a maximum size of a cherry or golf ball , but some species from Madagascar can even reach the size of an orange -LRB- an example of island gigantism -RRB- . When rolled-up , predators are unable to unravel giant pill millipedes since the margins of their second and last dorsal plates fit perfectly into one another , creating a sealed ball . A few giant pill millipede species are able to produce sound , the only millipedes known to do this . This order of millipedes is also unique in that some African species are used for medicinal purposes .

Synchronous_motor
|
A synchronous electric motor is an AC motor in which , at steady state , the rotation of the shaft is synchronized with the frequency of the supply current ; the rotation period is exactly equal to an integral number of AC cycles . Synchronous motors contain multiphase AC electromagnets on the stator of the motor that create a magnetic field which rotates in time with the oscillations of the line current . The rotor with permanent magnets or electromagnets turns in step with the stator field at the same rate and as a result , provides the second synchronized rotating magnet field of any AC motor . A synchronous motor is only considered doubly fed if it is supplied with independently excited multiphase AC electromagnets on both the rotor and stator . The synchronous motor and induction motor are the most widely used types of AC motor . The difference between the two types is that the synchronous motor rotates in exact synchronism with the line frequency . The synchronous motor does not rely on current induction to produce the rotor 's magnetic field . By contrast , the induction motor requires `` slip '' , the rotor must rotate slightly slower than the AC current alternations , to induce current in the rotor winding . Small synchronous motors are used in timing applications such as in synchronous clocks , timers in appliances , tape recorders and precision servomechanisms in which the motor must operate at a precise speed ; speed accuracy is that of the power line frequency , which is carefully controlled in large interconnected grid systems . Synchronous motors are available in sub-fractional self-excited sizes to high-horsepower industrial sizes . In the fractional horsepower range , most synchronous motors are used where precise constant speed is required . These machines are commonly used in analog electric clocks , timers and other devices where correct time is required . In high-horsepower industrial sizes , the synchronous motor provides two important functions . First , it is a highly efficient means of converting AC energy to work . Second , it can operate at leading or unity power factor and thereby provide power-factor correction .

Sokol
|
The Sokol movement -LRB- from the Czech word for falcon -RRB- is an all-age gymnastics organization first founded in Prague in the Czech region of Austria-Hungary in 1862 by Miroslav Tyrš and Jindřich Fügner . It was based upon the principle of `` a strong mind in a sound body '' . The Sokol , through lectures , discussions , and group outings provided what Tyrš viewed as physical , moral , and intellectual training for the nation . This training extended to men of all ages and classes , and eventually to women . The movement also spread across all the regions populated by Slavic cultures : -LRB- Poland -LRB- Sokół -RRB- , Slovene Lands , Serbia -LRB- SK Soko -RRB- , Bulgaria , the Russian Empire -LRB- Poland , Ukraine , Belarus -RRB- , and the rest of Austria-Hungary -LRB- i.e. , present day Slovenia and Croatia -RRB- . In many of these nations , the organization also served as an early precursor to the Scouting movements . Though officially an institution `` above politics '' , the Sokol played an important part in the development of Czech nationalism , providing a forum for the spread of mass-based nationalist ideologies . The articles published in the Sokol journal , lectures held in the Sokol libraries , and theatrical performances at the massive gymnastic festivals called slets helped to craft and disseminate the Czech nationalist mythology and version of history .

In mathematics , an algebra bundle is a fiber bundle whose fibers are algebras and local trivializations respect the algebra structure . It follows that the transition functions are algebra isomorphisms . Since algebras are also vector spaces , every algebra bundle is a vector bundle . Examples include the tensor-algebra bundle , exterior bundle , and symmetric bundle associated to a given vector bundle , as well as the Clifford bundle associated to any Riemannian vector bundle .

Throttling_process_-LRB-computing-RRB-
|
In software , a throttling process , or a throttling controller as it is sometimes called , is a process responsible for regulating the rate at which application processing is conducted , either statically or dynamically . For example , in high throughput processing scenarios , as may be common in online transactional processing -LRB- OLTP -RRB- architectures , a throttling controller may be embedded in the application hosting platform to balance the application 's outbound publishing rates with its inbound consumption rates , optimize available system resources for the processing profile , and prevent eventually unsustainable consumption . In something like an enterprise application integration -LRB- EAI -RRB- architecture , a throttling process may be built into the application logic to prevent an expectedly slow end-system from becoming overloaded as a result of overly aggressive publishing from the middleware tier .

Zuffenhausen is also one of the oldest continuously inhabited places in Stuttgart with evidence of permanent settlements that can be traced back 7,500 years .

The oldest known official denotation as a property of Bebenhausen Abbey by Pope Innocent III dates to May 18 , 1204 . Zuffenhausen was proclaimed a city in 1907 , yet soon financially badly affected by the Great Depression , Zuffenhausen and later Zazenhausen , agreed to the incorporation into Stuttgart city on 1 April 1931 . Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen station on the Franconia Railway is served by lines S4 , S5 , S6 and S60 of the Stuttgart S-Bahn .
