 Motor vehicle speed control system - Patent 4138723
A digital speed control system including a processor performing arithmetical and logic operations in response to command inputs from the operator to maintain the present vehicle speed, to accelerate at a substantially constant rate to a new cruising speed or to a previously established cruising speed is disclosed.
Until the upper speed limit is reached the incremental difference between the demand register and the present speed register provides an error to accelerate the vehicle at a substantially constant rate.
The resume switch 46 is actuable for causing the vehicle to accelerate at the aforementioned controlled rate of acceleration, from the vehicle speed at the time of switch actuation to a previous cruise speed i.e., the vehicle speed set during the previous cruise mode of operation, and thereafter maintain the cruise speed.

 TSB Reports - Air 1994 - A94F0048
Just prior to intercepting the glide slope, the aircraft was 2.9 dots left of the localizer, at approximately 210 knots calibrated airspeed, 2,000 feet radio altitude, 7.1 DME, on a heading of 290 degrees magnetic to intercept the localizer, with the speed brakes in, flaps position 5, and the landing gear up.
During the landing, with the speed brakes deployed and the auto-throttles engaged, the tail of the aircraft struck the runway.
It is recognized that there is potential for forgetting the speed brakes in the deployed position, which greatly increases the possibility of a tailstrike on landing; hence, the rule that the speed brakes be retracted by 800 feet agl on descent.

Prior to the adoption of these limits, most states had speed limits of 70 mph (with some having limits as high as 75 mph and Montana and Wyoming having no maximum limits).
Prior to the setting of national speed limits in 1974, the average on rural interstates was 65 mph (for uncongested travel).
Higher freeway speeds are likely to induce drivers to travel at higher speeds on arterial roads (due to a decreased perception of their actual speed when leaving a freeway).

 Vmc Demonstrations
Prior to a pilot checkout, a thorough discussion of the factors affecting engine out minimum control speed is essential.
Should indications of a stall occur prior to reaching this point, recovery should be initiated immediately by reducing the angle of attack.
If it is found that the minimum engine out control speed is reached before indications of a stall are encountered, the pilot should demonstrate the ability to control the airplane and initiate a safe climb in the event of a power failure at the published engine out minimum control speed.

It is the pilot's responsibility and prerogative to refuse speed adjustment that he/she considers excessive or contrary to the aircraft's operating specifications.

Nasif was able to measure the speed of 10 return's of Sampras' serves by his various opponents as well of 3 Sampras returns.
But undoubtedly, even on the fastest returns, the initial speed of the return would still be substantially less than the initial speed of the serve.
The cumulative loss of initial speed after the bounce was over half or 54%, compared to slightly less than half, or 49% on the serve.

Grenier made of the driving of a Volvo tractor prior to the accident scene, is in no way probative of the manner in which the accused drove the unit prior to, or at the curve in question.
The critical speed of the curve is the maximum speed at which the tractor-trailer unit could negotiate the curve without rolling over.

With milling, this is the peripheral speed of the cutter acting on a stationary workpiece.
The speed that the surface of the part or cutter moves each minute is measured in feet, not inches.
The use of a constant surface speed (sfpm) results in a spindle speed being relative to the part diameter (turning) or to the cutter diameter in milling.

Wagner said that if the 85th percentile speed prior to installation of the measures was 40 miles per hour, then a reduction of that speed by two or three miles per hour would not be acceptable to him.

 Speed prior - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Juergen Schmidhuber's Speed Prior is a complexity measure similar to Kolmogorov complexity, except that it is based on computation speed and not program length.
It is based on the fastest way of describing objects (rather than the shortest).
Unlike the traditional measures, the Speed Prior leads to near-optimal computable predictions.

 Bat Speed -- Baseball Hitting Forum   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
I stress that they must learn that retaining energy to power the bat through the follow-through is energy better used earlier in the swing.
A batter with good transfer mechanics will deplete all energy for generating bat speed prior to or by contact.
Improper initiation of the swing (thrusting the top-hand forward) quickly places the batter behind the power curve (bat-head dragging) and he/she is left with trying to develop bat speed after the bat reaches the optimum contact point.

 Speed Prior
Ray Solomonoff's optimal but non-computable method for inductive inference assumes that observation sequences x are drawn from a recursive prior distribution mu(x).
Then he replaces M by the novel Speed Prior S, under which the cumulative a priori probability of all data whose computation through an optimal algorithm requires more than O(n) resources is 1/n.
In absence of contrarian evidence, we assume the entire history of our universe is computable, and sampled from S (or a less dominant prior reflecting suboptimal computation of the history).

SENSE has been informed that speed limit reviews will be performed concurrently using the photo radar vans, and that enforcement tolerances will be set using the collected data.
Further, many drivers logically slow their travel speed down in response to a vehicle parked on the shoulder of the roadway.
Internationally respected traffic engineer Martin R. Parker Jr., who researches on the safety and setting of speed limits, tells SENSE that attempts to measure free-flow traffic speeds using the vans will understate the true safe traffic speed, the 85th percentile, rendering the measurements meaningless.
