The Pascal code was updated to handle four channels. To follow the inspection speed all raw measuring data were captured and stored in the computer. All data for one coil could be stored in the computer memory (RAM) and transferred to the disk before inspection of the next coil. Evaluation of the data could be performed on-line or later using a special evaluation program. 

The polynomial expansion used in this equation does not include all of the temis of a complete quadratic expansion (i.e. six terms corresponding to p = 2 in the Pascal triangle) and, therefore, the four-node rectangular element shown in Figure 2.8 is not a quadratic element. The right-hand side of Equation (2.15) can, however, be written as the product of two first-order polynomials in temis of X and y variables as...

The SI unit of viscosity is pascal-second (Pa s) or newton-second per meter squared (N s m ). Values tabulated are mN s (= centipoise, cP). The temperature in degrees Celsius at which the viscosity of a... 

The dynamic viscosity, or coefficient of viscosity, 77 of a Newtonian fluid is defined as the force per unit area necessary to maintain a unit velocity gradient at right angles to the direction of flow between two parallel planes a unit distance apart. The SI unit is pascal-second or newton-second per meter squared [N s m ]. The c.g.s. unit of viscosity is the poise [P] 1 cP = 1 mN s m . The dynamic viscosity decreases with the temperature approximately according to the equation log rj = A + BIT. Values of A and B for a large number of liquids are given by Barrer, Trans. Faraday Soc. 39 48 (1943). 

This big increase in speed has not been without cost. The everyday machine codes and high-level languages (Fortran, Pascal, C, etc.) used to control operations in a standard computer are inappropriate for parallel processing, which needs its own instruction set and has led to the development of special languages for use with the transputer.
