Machines, Motion & Mechanics
The International Federation for the Promotion of Mechanism and Machine Science (IFToMM) has an online dictionary that is just wonderful. In fact, it is more somewhere between a dictionary and an encyclopedia (neologism needed here?).
The table of contents can be found here. I have just spent a happy hour browing through the definitions. Organized into two columns, French on the left and English on the right, here's an example:
3.9.23 | BATTEMENT Variation périodique en fonction du temps de l’amplitude d’une vibration, composée de la superposition de deux vibrations sinusoïdales de fréquences très voisines. | BEAT Periodic variation of the amplitude of vibration with time, arising from the superposition of two sinusoidal vibrations with slightly different frequencies |
