Coriolis

The Intergalactic Dating Agency promised him a bride from this small, blue planet… With her allergy to water -- water, that keeps everything on Earth alive -- getting worse every day, reclusive billionaire heiress Marisol Wavercrest assumes she is going to die. So when she's offered one chance to survive, she has to take it. Except that chance will take her to another world that's nearly 100% covered by water in the company of an alien merman...who claims she is his fated mate. As commander of the western fleet on Tritona, Coriolis Kelyre fought long and hard against the cruel land-dwellers who poisoned the seas. When he's given one last task after the war -- to take an alien bride to help save his world -- he'll do what he's told, just as he's always done, even if the bride he's sent to retrieve makes him question everything he's sacrificed. Their predestined union is supposed to save a fragile planet, but a perfect storm is brewing between the enemies seeking to tear them apart and the tidal wave of their rising desire.

"The Coriolis effect--from which A. D. Lauren-Abunassar's Coriolis, winner of the 2023 Etel Adnan Poetry Prize, borrows its title--describes a force that deflects a moving mass off its course. This concept is at play both formally and psychically in this hyperkinetic debut collection, which explores the force of dream, prayer, trauma, and acts of belief and disbelief"--

Elaborate on the concept of Earth systems and cycles using this science inquiry card and lesson. Using vibrant, engaging images for science exploration allows all students to make connections and relate science concepts to new situations.

This book provides the latest theoretical analysis and design methodologies of different types of Coriolis vibratory gyroscopes (CVG). Together, the chapters analyze different types of sensitive element designs and their kinematics, derivation of motion equations, analysis of sensitive elements dynamics in modulated and demodulated signals, calculation and optimization of main performance characteristics, and signal processing and control. Essential aspects of numerical simulation of CVG using Simulink® are also covered. This is an ideal book for graduate students, researchers, and engineers working in fields that require gyroscope application, including but not limited to: inertial sensors and systems, automotive and consumer electronics, small unmanned aircraft control systems, personal mobile navigation systems and related software development, and augmented and virtual reality systems.

The report presents a brief description of the Coriolis Acceleration Platform, a new combined linear and angular motion-producing vestibular research device developed to study the biological effects of aerospace acceleration environments. The primary element of the device is a 20-ft diameter capsule equipped with various life-support equipments to study the long-term effects of continuous rotation. A low rpm, direct-coupled, DC torque motor operated in a closed-loop, velocity mode, power servomechanism configuration rotates the device in either direction at angular velocities extending to 200 deg/sec at accelerations ranging to 15 deg/sq sec. A second drive system can be programmed to produce time-varying rectilinear translations of a single subject along a track structure fixed to the capsule where this form of motion can occur singly, or in combination with rotation of the entire device. Peak ratings of the linear drive system include a radial displacement of plus or minus 20 ft, a linear velocity of plus or minus 16 ft/sec, and a linear acceleration of 96 ft/sq sec (3 g). (Author).

The report describes a general-purpose instrumentation system developed for use in conjunction with the Coriolis Acceleration Platform, a combined linear and angular motion device recently installed at the vestibular research facilities of this activity. The system, based on the use of standard commercially available equipment, provides the basic transducers, signal-conditioning circuitry, and recording instruments required for the acquisition, display, and storage of a wide variety of commonly collected biological and bioenvironmental measurement data.

The problem was to determine how adaptation to Coriolis accelerations, acquired through controlled head movements in a room rotating in one direction, transfers to the opposite direction as a consequence of the stimulus mode during an intervening period at zero velocity. Under one experimental condition the subjects continued to make the same head movements as those used to acquire perrotational adaptation, thus evoking postrotational responses opposite in sign but similar in quality to those experienced during the initial period of rotation. In the other, mechanical restraints were applied to the head and torso for an equivalent period of time. Subjects who performed the head motion activity during the intervening static period were able to adapt more rapidly to the second (opposite) direction of rotation than to the first. In addition, the intervening activity appeared to confer some immunity to motion sickness during the second direction of rotation. Postrotational effects following the second direction of rotation were less severe and of shorter duration than those experienced following the initial period of rotation. The opposite findings were obtained for those subjects who remained immobilized during the intervening period at zero velocity. (Author).
