The key action can bebroken down into several steps2. As the key is initially pressed there is a small amount of freeplay before the beak leather engages the pawl. As the key is further depressed, the hammer armis accelerated by the force exerted by the beak on the pawl. As the hammer is accelerating, thedamper is engaged and raised off the string. The next step is where the hammer is just below thestring and the beak leather disengages from the pawl, and momentum flings the hammer into thestring. The beak catches the front face of the pawl and the hammer is held against

Many educational institutions report to the Ministry ofEducation and Training, but some are governed by the Ministry of Industry and Trade.Correspondingly, the engineering institutes and colleges that the Russian research universitycooperates with are supervised by these government bodies. Besides being in charge ofengineering education in the country, the Ministry is responsible for the regulation,promotion, management, and growth of industry and trade. In this way, the engineeringinstitutions are directly connected with industry from both sides – in Russia and in Vietnam.Moreover, Russian engineering programs are most popular among Asian students, asdemonstrated by the data in Table 1 5.

Within this work, he outlines hisapproach to consciousness and intentionality. Here we find a divergence from what we may beaccustomed to within engineering education – a classical use of
