The data were used to mechanically adjust the tracking mechanism using a digital angular level.
The idea of a fluid lens whose focal plane can be mechanically adjusted goes back at least to an 1866 patent awarded D. A. Woodward, a Baltimore inventor.
If an engine fails, most modern propellers can be feathered (mechanically adjusted) so that they present the blade edgewise to the line of flight, thereby reducing drag.
Duplex owners will be able to mechanically adjust their own shutters, and inside each apartment, a 20-foot window wall will pivot open, above left, getting these few Manhattanites as close to California living as they might possibly dream of being.
The saddle was mechanically adjusted properly to avoid the maximal extension of the knee.
Previous measurements of the electronic conductance of DNA nucleotides or amino acids have used tunnel junctions in which the gap is mechanically adjusted, such as scanning tunneling microscopes or mechanically controllable break junctions.
To complicate matters further, scramjets move too fast for their internal temperature and air pressure to be controlled mechanically by adjusting the air intake.
The CHO cells were detached mechanically and adjusted to the required concentration of viable cells as determined by counting in a hemocytometer.
Ventilation was controlled mechanically and adjusted to maintain end-tidal CO2 values of 30 40 mmHg.
