Fundamentals of Coupled Bulk Acoustic Wave MEMS Resonators
Bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonators are a type of Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) device experiencing acoustic wave propagation through the bulk of the medium. Combining the approach of coupled resonators with BAW resonators has recently led to achieving better performance and new functionalities. In particular, coupled BAW resonators based on lateral vibration modes are studied due to its advantages.

Ruby Pistol
The self-loading Ruby pistol is best known as a French World War I sidearm, the Pistolet Automatique de 7 millim.65 genre "Ruby". A very international piece of weaponry, it was closely modeled after John Browning's M1903 design produced by the Belgian Fabrique Nationale de Herstal, and was produced by over 50 Spanish companies, but primarily by the Spanish Gabilondo y Urresti firm (the official "Gabilondo Ruby"). It was decommissioned in 1958, more than a decade after World War II was brought to an end, and was subsequently replaced.

Terahertz Emitter Using Resonant-Tunneling Diode
The terahertz (THz) band, which has a frequency of about 0.1 to several THz, is expected to play key roles in various applications, such as imaging, chemical and bio-technological analyses, and communications. Compact solid-state THz sources are important devices for these applications and various kinds of such sources have been studied, comprising both optical and electronic devices, as the THz band is located between millimeter and light waves.

Schweizer 300
The Schweizer RSG 300 series (formerly Sikorsky S300, Hughes 300 and Schweizer 300) family of light utility helicopters was originally produced by Hughes Helicopters, as a development of the Hughes 269. Later manufactured by Schweizer Aircraft, the basic design has been in production for almost 50 years. The single, three-bladed main rotor and piston-powered S-300 is mostly used as a cost-effective platform for training and agriculture.

Energy Storage Flywheel Rotors – Mechanical Design
Definition: Energy storage flywheel systems are mechanical devices that typically utilize an electrical machine (motor/generator unit) to convert electrical energy in mechanical energy and vice versa. Energy is stored in a fast-rotating mass known as the flywheel rotor. The rotor is subject to high centripetal forces requiring careful design, analysis, and fabrication to ensure the safe operation of the storage device.
