  2. Isolated-phase bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolated-phase_bus

    In electrical engineering, isolated-phase bus (IPB), also known as phase-isolated bus (PIB) in some countries, is a method of construction for circuits carrying very large currents, typically between a generator and its step-up transformer in a steam or large hydroelectric power plant. Isolated phase bus during installation at the Bui Dam Ghana.

  3. Central pattern generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_pattern_generator

    Central pattern generators ( CPGs) are self-organizing biological neural circuits [ 1][ 2] that produce rhythmic outputs in the absence of rhythmic input. [ 3][ 4][ 5] They are the source of the tightly-coupled patterns of neural activity that drive rhythmic and stereotyped motor behaviors like walking, swimming, breathing, or chewing.

    The central pattern generators responsible for locomotion in vertebrates reside as half-center modules in the cervical and lumbar region of the spinal cord. Each CPG generates a basic motor output pattern that is responsible for the rhythmic contractions of flexor - extensor muscles that correspond to the forelimbs and hindlimbs . [3]
