efficiency is mainly achieved by means of gear materials that are more resistant to wear (case hardened, high alloy steel), improved flank machining methods and optimized tooth geometry. The power-weight ratio of gear units can also be improved by means of torque division (planetary gears), light weight construction (light metal or plastic casings, hollow shafts), or by increasing the thermal limit which, as far as standard gears are concerned, often lies below their…

to reduce data entry costs. Because the costs of data collection and processing and the re spondent burden are typically much lower for food frequency methods than for multiple diet records or recalls, the food frequency method has become a com mon way to estimate usual dietary intake. Weaknesses.

would have a volume of NA × 1.0 cm3 , where NA is the Avogadro √ constant. Since the volume of a cube is equal to the length cubed, V = l3 , then l = 3 NA cm = 8.4 × 107 cm. E1-28 The number of seconds in a week is 60 × 60 × 24 × 7 = 6.05 × 105 . The “weight” loss per second is then (0.23 kg)/(6.05 × 105 s) = 3.80 × 10−1 mg/s. E1-29 The definition of the meter was wavelengths per meter; the question asks for meters per wavelength, so we want to take the reciprocal. The definition is…

"There are my former husbands, all anthropologists and all as deeply involved as I am in the ways in which their lives and their work are interrelated." —Margaret Mead, 1972 Anthropologists have come to take it for granted that works of ethnography cannot be fully understood without reference to the human circumstances in…

and everyone leaned in to listen. She changed her mind and stopped speaking, but the words hung in the air like a trail of smoke. Which Ariana blew away. "I'm sorry, but a memorial isn't a grave­ yard. It's a national symbol, an historic signifier, a way to make sure anyone who visits-no matter how attenuated their link in time or ge­ ography to the attack-understands how it felt, what it meant. The Void is visceral, angry, dark, raw, because there was no joy on that day. You can't tell…
