Inertial guidance systems accumulate errors over time.

We're not getting a damn thing on the inertial nav system.

A far more inertial indicator is unemployment, which experts predict will grow in 2010.

The National Ignition Facility, or NIF, is a large laser based inertial confinement fusion (ICF) research device, located at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California.

No, no! In terms of what we really need to do to put the brakes on this very high inertial thing our big economy we've really hardly started.

The first solid state laser, invented in 1960, was pumped by a xenon flash lamp, and lasers used to power inertial confinement fusion are also pumped by xenon flash lamps.

The key components of the system consist of a tail section with aerodynamic control surfaces, a (body) strake kit, and a combined inertial guidance system and GPS guidance control unit.

One hopes that, in the future, such plans will be adopted on a large enough scale that we can devise a variety of new programs that serve both inertial and active individuals well.

How can governments rise to the challenge? The risk they face is clear enough absent a profound reengineering, inertial spending owing to entitlements and civil service wages is bound to crowd out spending on new priorities and new policies.

In 1947, Arthur Roderick Collar defined aeroelasticity as the study of the mutual interaction that takes place within the triangle of the inertial, elastic, and aerodynamic forces acting on structural members exposed to an airstream, and the influence of this study on design.

These saving plans show that there are methods other than outright compulsion to overcome human inertia. One hopes that, in the future, such plans will be adopted on a large enough scale that we can devise a variety of new programs that serve both inertial and active individuals well.

Inertial elements remained very strong in Uruguay this and a considerable external demand, largely the overflow of Argentine domestic demand, prevented a more rapid slowdown of inflation, which in any case decreased from slightly more than 80 per cent in 1991 to less than 60 per cent in 1992.
