Quartz tuning fork1/16/2024 The crystal is identical, and oscillates the same. All they can do is tune the crystal to frequency at a specified load capacitance. Note that manufacturers can't/don't "make" the crystal for either resonance. Series resonance is commonly used for overtone oscillators, as without an LC filter, the oscillator will usually prefer the fundamental. (the crystal is operated in the inductive region) The simplest and cheapest oscillator circuits don't use an inductor, they use capacitors, and thus must be in parallel resonance. Series resonance is not commonly used, because it requires an inductor in the oscillator circuit to cancel out the electrode capacitance of the crystal. From the oscillators in circuit perspective parallel resonance is sharp. Your plots are not accounting for the impedances in circuit, you are just viewing it from the series resistance perspective. You can see that the amplitude peaks at its series resonant frequency (also note the slight asymmetry)Īlso note the dip of the parallel resonant frequency on log scale, and note the circuit diagram added. I just added screenshots of the plot of my actual measurement. Plus, it has the benefit of the frequency not changing due to load capacitance. The resonance is definitely more pronounced than the asymmetry (antiresonance). Why wouldn't they design it such that the peak (resonance, marked as A in the image) is at the frequency of 32768Hz? My question is the following: why do companies make the quartz tuning forks such that the tuning fork has antiresonance frequency of 32768Hz with the appropriate value of load capacitance?Īntiresonance shows up as a slight asymmetry in your amplitude plot, as can been seen in the black curve in the image below (B). I noticed the frequency position of the resonance did not change but the frequency position of the antiresonance increased, as would be expected from the wikipedia page linked above. I excited the tuning fork with and without a 10pF capacitor. I just tested the frequency response of a tuning fork, which was designed with 10pF load capacitance in mind. Based on the explanation here, I understand that if you electrically drive a tuning fork, you would first see a peak (resonance) and dip (antiresonance).

Aer racing1/16/2024 Rebellion has yet to announce its driver lineups, although confirming it has lodged two full-season FIA WEC entry requests for the LMP1 class. “It’s a fantastic opportunity for us to work with such a well respected and successful racing team and we have already been impressed with the dedication and in-depth knowledge of the entire team,” added AER managing director Mike Lancaster. No word has been given on any potential testing prior to its targeted debut race at Spa. The team and its chassis partner ORECA are now in the process of developing a revised version of the Rebellion R-One to be fitted with AER’s powerplant. AER has revealed an updated version of its LMP1 engine, which will power SMP Racing’s pair of BR1 prototypes in the FIA World Endurance Championship next season. Three, 12 or 24-hour races, a variety of different drivers per car and balancing the need to go quickly with the desire for reliability are all important. “We are faced with a significant amount of work to upgrade the R-One cars to accommodate the P60 engine and we are fully determined to do it in the best way possible, that is why we will not be ready in time to debut the new cars at the season opening race at Silverstone.” Endurance racing brings its own set of unique challenges for engine designers that make F1’s two races per motor rule look tame in comparison. “The AER P60 engine has shown good performance on track already and we believe that this engine will marry well to the Rebellion R-One chassis,” said team manager Bart Hayden. After a few Lemons events, they decided they wanted to build a real car rather than one with a silly theme. Both longtime amateur racers, they dabbled in almost every venue and series before finally devoting their attention to endurance racing. However, due to the late decision to change engines in its Rebellion R-One chassis, the team has informed the FIA WEC that it will miss both the mandatory Prologue test at Paul Ricard as well as the first round of the season in Silverstone.Īll efforts, however, are being placed for both cars to debut the new package at the Six Hours of Spa-Francorchamps on May 2. Endurance racing brings its own set of unique challenges for engine designers that make F1s two races per motor rule look tame in comparison. Mostly people like John Kolesa and Ed Tatios, who cofounded AER in 2014. The engine debuted last year with the Lotus LMP1 team. Brake Pad Information (To view an image of the pad click on Pad Part No) CP2270D46 - Pad Area 56.3cm² - Pad Depth 46.0mm - Thickness 16.6mm. The Anglo-Swiss squad, which had run Toyota’s 3.4-liter V8 engine for the last four seasons, will move to the AER-tuned P60 V6 twin-turbo unit for 2015. Rebellion Racing will make the switch from Toyota to AER engines, although revealing Tuesday it will miss the opening round of the FIA World Endurance Championship due to the change in powerplant.

Dalai Lama sayings can help us become more responsible travellers while the Dalai Lama quotes on travel can inspire us to see new places and embrace diversity in a positive way. And we were totally touched by His life and teachings. That led me to read Freedom in Exile, the autobiography of Dalai Lama. Much later I read the book Seven Years in Tibet by Heinrich Harrer, and I was totally fascinated by his life. It was there we saw how he was revered by the people. He was there to inaugurate the giant Buddha Statue at Buddha Park in Ravangla. The first time we were intrigued by His Holiness Dalai Lama 14th when we had visited Ravangla way back in 2013. In the present scenario of mistrust, hatred and intolerance, Dalai Lama quotes on kindness and compassion can be a guiding light to all of us.

No matter your situation, don’t forget to budget-it’s the best way to make your money go further. Or talk to your investment professional about giving your retirement a big boost (5% of people did this)! Knock out your fully funded emergency fund (38% of people surveyed in our study saved the money). On the other hand, if your job is safe and you feel like it’ll stay that way, use your stimulus money to build momentum on whatever Baby Step you’re on. There’s nothing like fighting through a financial crisis to light your fire to be debt-free as soon as possible! Pile up cash until you have a steady income again. That means if you’re working the Baby Steps and you’re out of work, pause your plan for now. If you’re out of work or missing a paycheck, use this stimulus money to protect your Four Walls:įocus on the necessities so you can have peace of mind as you keep looking for work or get your income back up. So, based on your situation, here’s where you start: In our State of Personal Finance study, we found that 41% of people who got a stimulus check used it to pay for necessities like food and bills. And for a lot of folks, those stimulus checks have kept food on the table. This third payment can go a long way to help you catch up on bills, pay off debt, or build up your savings. Let’s be real: Three stimulus checks in a year or so is not normal. What Should You Do With Your Third Stimulus Check? So, is more stimulus money coming your way? Let’s take a look. And there’s even talk of a federal inflation stimulus check. But instead of a stimulus for pandemic relief, state politicians are now cutting stimulus checks to help ease the pain of record-high inflation and gas prices. Social distancing, remote learning, stimulus payments-the COVID-19 pandemic introduced us all to lots of new concepts.Īnd while the 6-foot rule has gone out the window (thank goodness!), stimulus checks have hung around.

Darkest dungeon antiquarian1/15/2024 Given the sale prices of trinkets, each camp opportunity should net an overall average of 1245 gold per antiquarian. Longer dungeons simply grant more camping opportunities, and the heroes don't have to complete the dungeon to keep the scrounged trinket (they just need the inventory space for it). These rates are not affected by the level of the antiquarian nor the difficulty of the dungeon.

Peter blomquist l.a. noire1/15/2024 They felt that a single character felt more appropriate for the narrative structure of a Western. The team decided that the player would control one character at a time in Red Dead Redemption 2, as opposed to the three protagonists simultaneously in Rockstar's previous title Grand Theft Auto V (2013), in order to follow the character more personally and understand how the events impact him. The actors improvised some additional lines but mostly remained faithful to the script. The developers often allowed the actors to take scenes in their own direction to develop the characters in new ways. Some lines of dialogue from the first game, Red Dead Redemption, in which gang leader Dutch van der Linde is described as an equitable leader, allowed the team to create a diverse group of characters in the gang. Several characters were cut from the game during development as their personalities failed to add to the narrative. Unsworth felt that the gang is a "family" that offers "a sense of belonging and purpose", and analyzing each story-and each character's relationship with the protagonist-was important for the narrative. The writers put particular focus on the individual stories behind each character, exploring their life before the gang and their reasons for remaining with the group. Senior creative writer Michael Unsworth noted that the ensemble was advantageous when writing the narrative, as it helped to craft the story and added complexity to the game. Rockstar wanted a diverse cast of characters within the Van der Linde gang. The secretive nature of Rockstar's development meant that Edge and the actors were unsure about the future of the characters during production the writers continued to work on the script while the actors shot their scenes in segments. The motion capture sets were typically accurate to the dimensions of the in-game setting, which could be demonstrated in a previsualization format. In addition to using motion capture to record the performances, Rockstar Games also used cameras to record their facial reactions for later animation a total of around 60 or 70 cameras were used. The game features 1,200 actors, 700 of whom share the game's 500,000 lines of dialogue. Red Dead Redemption 2 's recording sessions began in 2013 and lasted a total of 2,200 days, led primarily by motion capture director Rod Edge. The relationships between the characters received praise from several gaming publications, and the acting has resulted in multiple awards and nominations, including a win at The Game Awards.Ĭreation and conception A composite of the art designs of each member of the Van der Linde gang, which makes up the main characters of Red Dead Redemption 2, led by Dutch Rockstar wanted a diverse cast of characters within the Van der Linde gang and put particular focus on the individual stories behind each character. The secretive nature of Rockstar's development processes meant that the actors and the director were unsure of the future of the characters during production the writers continued to work on the script while the actors shot their scenes in segments. Rockstar used motion capture to record the performances of the cast, as well as cameras to capture their facial reactions for later animation. The game's epilogue focuses on John's relationship with his family-wife Abigail and son Jack-as well as the elderly Uncle, leading into the events of the first game. Throughout their adventures, the gang come into direct conflict with several opposing forces, including wealthy oil magnate Leviticus Cornwall, crime lord Angelo Bronte, Dutch's nemesis Colm O'Driscoll, and Pinkerton agents Andrew Milton and Edgar Ross. Outside of the gang, Arthur also encounters his former partner Mary Linton, as well as Native American tribe members Rains Fall and Eagle Flies. The game focuses on Arthur's relationship with several of the gang members, including Dutch's best friend Hosea Matthews, Native American hunter Charles Smith, gunslinger Sadie Adler, experienced outlaw Micah Bell, and Red Dead Redemption protagonist John Marston. Several characters reprise their roles from the 2010 game Red Dead Redemption, to which Red Dead Redemption 2 is a prequel. Led by Dutch van der Linde, the gang attempts to survive against government forces and rival gangs while dealing with the decline of the Wild West. Red Dead Redemption 2, a Western-themed action-adventure game developed and published by Rockstar Games, follows the story of Arthur Morgan, an outlaw and member of the Van der Linde gang.

Dont starve together maxwell unlock1/15/2024 If the player attacks Maxwell, the throne protects him (a lightning bolt will strike the player and destroy their weapon), and Maxwell tells the player that the throne will not allow it. He tells the player that when he got here there was nothing but dust and "Them" and that he doesn't know what They want, that They are just watching. A decrepit Maxwell is awaiting atop the Nightmare Throne with a Gramophone nearby playing music. At the end of the road, players will reach Maxwell's Hall. They will be teleported to a dark and dead wasteland, with a hallway in the center. In the last Chapter of Adventure Mode, "Epilogue", players will finally confront Maxwell. He will say different things in each World and will get angrier and more deformed as the player progresses. Maxwell will greet players at the beginning of each world, like in Sandbox Mode, but now he is wearing a dapper cloak instead of a tuxedo. Maxwell will only appear again in Adventure Mode. This section contains plot central information and thus contains spoilers. Maxwell used his powers to trick people from the real world into his dimension so that he could trap them there. Some time after this, Maxwell was put on the Nightmare Throne and given full reign over the Constant, while Charlie became the Night Monster. Soon, they were both pulled into a parallel dimension. He managed to break free, but the book, moving of its own volition, turned to a page before grabbing Maxwell and Charlie with huge shadow hands. When Maxwell reached inside the book to pull a shadow out, something else pulled him in. Later that night, Maxwell and Charlie were to perform their big final act, wherein Maxwell would pull a shadow from his mysterious book. She ran away terrified, but came back later to slide a letter under Maxwell's door acknowledging the room and suggesting that they take a break after their last act. Among these were the phrases "Enough", "It's them", and "Charlie". In 1906, Charlie went to Maxwell's apartment after not hearing from him for a few days, but instead of finding Maxwell she discovered his hidden "study room", with various symbols and incantations crudely scratched on the walls. Their magic shows appeared to be successful, creating very convincing acts using the knowledge Maxwell acquired from the book he discovered. Īfter settling down with his newly-found alter ego and knowledge, Maxwell hired Charlie as an assistant. Soon, William returned to a life of show business under his new stage name: "The Amazing Maxwell". He gathered this new information and began incorporating it into his magic shows. Out on his own, William deciphered the various symbols inside the Codex Umbra and his mind was opened to new possibilities for magic acts. William was distressed to have someone witness the dark magic of the Codex Umbra he was carrying, and he fled away from the train crash, going missing and presumed dead. William was saved by a circus strongman, who attempted to lift the train car off of William and was eventually successful with the help of two Shadowy tendrils that shot out of William's Codex Umbra. On the way, William's train crashed into a circus wagon and William was trapped under one of the damaged train cars. William decided to take up Jack on his offer, and boarded a train traveling west to San Francisco, California. William received a letter from his brother Jack Carter, inviting William to come visit Jack and his family out West. It was sometime around this point that William discovered a mysterious book known as the Codex Umbra which contained information on powerful forms of dark magic. Three years later, William's career had flopped and he was in debt trying to make his magic shows work. In 1901, a British man named William Carter boarded a ship from Liverpool to the United States with the hopes of pursuing his career as a magician in New York City. The following is a summary of the information gleaned from these puzzles. Maxwell is unique in having a lot of his backstory revealed in puzzles found outside the game. During exploration, players can find Maxwell Statues or Chess Biomes themed after him. He looks very tall and sinister, wearing a dapper vertical lined tuxedo and pants with a rose lapel on his chest. He appears at the beginning of the game to tell the player to start gathering food and to build a Campfire before disappearing into a cloud of smoke. He scattered all the Characters across his dimension, forcing them to survive a harsh wilderness for his own amusement. Maxwell (AKA William Carter) is the main antagonist of Don't Starve. You better find something to eat before night comes! ”
