David Mach

Recently Mach has produced some permanent public works such as Out of Order in Kingston upon Thames, the Brick Train (a depiction of an LNER Class A4 steam engine made from 185,000 bricks, which can be seen near Morrison's supermarket on the A66 just outside Darlington) and the Big Heids visible from the M8 between Glasgow and Edinburgh.

Following several shows and public installations, Mach was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1988.

Doppler radar

Normally it is one or the other; a radar designed for detecting targets from zero to Mach 2 does not have a high resolution in speed, while a radar designed for high resolution velocity measurements does not have a wide range of speeds.

Douglas D-558-2 Skyrocket

On 20 November 1953, shortly before the 50th anniversary of powered flight, Scott Crossfield piloted the Skyrocket to Mach 2, or more than 1,290 mph (2076 km/h), the first time an aircraft had exceeded twice the speed of sound.

Over the next couple of years, NACA pilot Scott Crossfield flew the aircraft 20 times to gather data on longitudinal and lateral stability and control, wing and tail loads, and lift, drag, and buffeting characteristics at speeds up to Mach 1.878.

Fastest propeller-driven aircraft

This aircraft is named in Guinness World Records, 1997, as the fastest in this category with a speed of 1,002 km/h (623 mph, Mach 0.83).

Francisco Pastrana

Later in 2009, he refereed a Rugby World Cup qualification mach between Uruguay and the United States.

High Level Assembly

The HLA Back Engine (HLABE) is a compiler back end that translates an internal intermediate language into low-level PE, COFF, ELF, or Mach-O object code.

Hubert Schardin

He also was the director of the German-French Research Institute (ISL) in Saint-Louis (France) and founder and director of the Fraunhofer Society for High-Speed Dynamics - Ernst-Mach-Institut (EMI) - in Freiburg im Breisgau.

Hypersonic flight

Soon after, in May 1961, Alan Shepard became the first American and second person to achieve hypersonic flight when his capsule reentered the atmosphere at a speed above Mach 5 at the end of his suborbital flight over the Atlantic Ocean.

Inertia

Various efforts by notable physicists such as Ernst Mach (see Mach's principle), Albert Einstein, Dennis William Sciama, and Bernard Haisch have been put towards the study and theorizing of Inertia.

Ines Putri

Ines travel to Juba, South Sudan on June 28 to became an international judge together with Miss Earth 2012 Tereza Fajksová to crown Miss South Sudan Beauties best representative to Miss Earth 2013 winner and Miss International 2013 1st runner up organized by Atong De Mach- Miss Earth South Sudan 2010/Miss World South Sudan 2012.

Lattice Boltzmann methods

It is therefore common to raise the lattice Mach number to something much larger than the real Mach number, and compensating for this by raising the viscosity as well in order to preserve the Reynolds number.

Linear parametric varying control

For example in case of aircraft control, a set of controllers are designed at different gridded locations of corresponding parameters such as AoA, Mach, dynamic pressure, CG etc.

Lookin' for Love

The Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Looking for par'Mach in All the Wrong Places" is titled in tribute to this song ("par'Mach" is defined in the episode as "the Klingon word for love, but with more aggressive overtones").

Mach Pelican

In eleven years, Mach Pelican played 800 shows, touring with bands such as The Buzzcocks, Radio Birdman, Rancid, The Hard Ons, Butthole Surfers, Guitar Wolf, Supersnazz, The Donnas, You Am I, The Spazzys and The Porkers.

MACH S.a.r.L

Originally part of the Millicom group, Multinational Automated Clearing House (MACH) was established as an independent company in 1987.

Miller twist rule

For example he states that assuming a mach number of M = 2.5 (or roughly 2800 ft/sec assuming standard conditions at sea level where 1 Mach is roughly 1116 ft/sec) is a safe value to use in regards to velocity.

MkLinux

The effort was spearheaded by Brett Halle at Apple, and development was later split between two main people: Michael Burg on device drivers and distribution at Apple in Cupertino, California; and Nick Stephen on Mach porting and development at the OSF in Grenoble, France.

OpenStep

NeXT's first operating system was NeXTSTEP, a sophisticated Mach-UNIX based operating system that originally ran only on NeXT's Motorola 68k-based workstations and that was then ported to run on 32-bit Intel x86-based "IBM-compatible" personal computers, PA-RISC-based workstations from Hewlett-Packard, and SPARC-based workstations from Sun Microsystems.

Qaqa Mach'ay

Located in the Yauyos Province of the Lima Region in central Peru, Qaqa Mach'ay (Quechua meaning "cliff cave") is a limestone cave high in the Andes Mountains that was explored and surveyed in 2004 by an international expedition.

Randy LaJoie

He had signed to drive for Mach 1, which was under new management again in 2005, but was replaced early in the season by teammate Chad Chaffin.

Robert H. Widmer

He eventually joined the company's main branch in Fort Worth, Texas, where he notably designed the Convair B-58 Hustler which was the first United States Air Force's bomber capable of Mach 2.

Scramjet

A series of scramjet ground test were completed at NASA Langley Arc-Heated Scramjet Test Facility (AHSTF) at simulated Mach 8 flight conditions.

Supersonic transport

Supersonic Aerospace International's Quiet Supersonic Transport is a 12 passenger design from Lockheed Martin that is to cruise at Mach 1.6, and is to create a sonic boom only 1% as strong as that generated by Concorde.

Widdershins, LLC

A number of entertainers have become "regulars" at Jeff Mach Events, including (but not limited to) Voltaire, Isaac Bonewits and Frenchy and the Punk formerly The Gypsy Nomads.

Wolfgang Boss

Just one year later Boss’s new label MACH 1 scored two number-one hits with Dragostea Din Tei (Haiducii) and Obsessión (Aventura).

Xcode

Thanks to the Mach-O executable format, which allows for “fat binaries," containing code for multiple architectures, Xcode can build universal binaries, which allow software to run on both PowerPC and Intel-based (x86) platforms and that can include both 32-bit and 64-bit code for both architectures.
