Intermediate clutches in the Starling (Sturnus vulgaris): replacement clutches, additional clutches of polygynous males or late first clutches?

Journal für Ornithologie, 1990
Literature on the breeding biology of the StarlingSturnus vulgaris refers to a sequence of egg-layings usually termed as first, intermediate and second broods. Egg-laying of first broods is highly synchronous. Accurate data concerning the identity of pairs producing the intermediate clutches, i.e.

Clutch-to-Clutch Transmission Control Strategy

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2007
<div class="htmlview paragraph">An automatic transmission control system for clutch-to-clutch shifting systems has been developed. This enables the new General Motors Powertrain families of rear- and front-wheel drive transmissions to meet stringent cost, mass, and packaging reqiurements, while providing driveability and fuel economy improvements

The global diversity and distribution of lizard clutch sizes [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, 2020
Aim: Clutch size is a key life-history trait. In lizards, it ranges over two orders of magnitude. The global drivers of spatial and phylogenetic variation in clutch have been extensively studied in birds, but such tests in other organisms are lacking. To

Clutched Elastic Actuators

IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics, 2017
This paper identifies the class of actuators called clutched elastic actuators (CEAs). CEAs use clutches to control the energy flow into springs. CEAs in exoskeletons, prostheses, legged robots, and robotic arms have shown the ability to reduce the energy consumption and motor requirements, such as peak torque and peak power. Because of those abilities,

Dual Clutch Transmission With Dry Clutch and Electro-Mechanical Actuation

ATZautotechnology, 2010
The existing PowerShift transmission portfolio by Getrag with wet dual clutch and electronically controlled hydraulic actuation is expanded by a new version with dual dry clutch and electro-mechanical actuation. The range of applications sums up front-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, inline drive and longitudinal transaxle but now the new small ...

Data Deliver in the Clutch

Scientific American, 2016
The article discusses the role access to information plays in leading to paradigm shifts, or changes, in understanding, including professional baseball executive Branch Rickey. It references the book "Ahead of the Curve," by Brian Kenny, including the book's discussion of group psychology and belief in propositions.

The Magnetic Fluid Clutch

Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, 1948
A new type of magnetic fluid and several classes of new devices utilizing this fluid have been developed at the National Bureau of Standards. One application of this fluid has been in electromagnetic clutches, but the electro-magnetically controlled mixture offers promise for other uses also.

Development of the Electrostatic Clutch

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 1957
A brief historical review of the electrostatic clutch operating on the Johnsen-Rahbek effect is presented. Mechanical design of a clutch, special lubrication, and the fabrication of electronically conductive clutch facing material are described. A high-speed, high torque-to-inertia ratio test model with bi-directional shaft control is described.

Paper 1. Friction Clutches and Clutch Control Mechanisms

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Conference Proceedings, 1969
Part 1 of this paper states the basic requirements of clutches and then discusses the various factors which must be considered in the initial stages of clutch design and specification for particular applications. The differing types of clutches used over a wide range of operating conditions are described and changes likely to be seen in future designs
