  • balance a wheel that regulates the rate of movement in a machine; especially a wheel oscillating against the hairspring of a timepiece to regulate its beat
  • tesla United States electrical engineer and inventor (born in Croatia but of Serbian descent) who discovered the principles of alternating currents and developed the first alternating-current induction motor and the Tesla coil and several forms of oscillators (1856-1943)
  • scanner a radar dish that rotates or oscillates in order to scan a broad area
  • quench electronics: suppress (sparking) when the current is cut off in an inductive circuit, or suppress (an oscillation or discharge) in a component or device
  • ripple (electronics) an oscillation of small amplitude imposed on top of a steady value
  • muffler a device that decreases the amplitude of electronic, mechanical, acoustical, or aerodynamic oscillations
