A Johnson bar is a hand lever with several distinct positions and a positive clutch to hold the lever in the selected position. The positive clutch is typically activated with a spring-loaded squeeze handle on the lever so that only one hand is needed to release the clutch, move the lever, then reengage the clutch. Many steam locomotives have valvetrain controls which are set using a Johnson bar as referenced in Fred Eaglesmith's Back There: Hey Porter, tell that engineer, tell him this train's too slow. Tell him to let go that Johnson bar. I got places I got to go. Many trucks and buses use a hand brake which...

The Joint Direct Attack Munition is a guidance kit that converts existing unguided gravity bombs, or "dumb bombs", into all-weather "smart" munitions. JDAM equipped bombs are guided to their target by an integrated inertial guidance system coupled with a Global Positioning System receiver for enhanced accuracy, giving them a published range of up to 15 nautical miles from the release point. The guidance development program is a joint United States Air Force and United States Navy effort, hence the "joint" in the name. The program's approach was in contrast to earlier laser-guided bomb and imaging infrared technology, both of which can be hindered by adverse ground and weather conditions; however, laser designators are now being fitted to...

Studies on deformation characteristics of early-age Jointed Plan Concrete Pavements (JPCP) subjected to pure environmental loading has drawn significant interest as it is believed that the early-age deformation of Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) slab could result in the loss of pavement smoothness and the tensile stresses induced by these deformations could result in early-age cracking. However, the complex interaction of several environmental factors has resulted in difficulties in predicting the JPCP deformation characteristics under environmental loading. This book discusses the early-age behaviors of JPCP under environmental loading. The slab deformations associated with temperature and moisture were analyzed using measured vertical...

The Joint Light Tactical Vehicle is a U.S. Army, USSOCOM, and U.S. Marine Corps program to replace the current HMMWV with a family of more survivable vehicles and greater payload. In particular, the HMMWV was not designed to be an armored combat and scout vehicle but has been employed as one, whereas the JLTV will be designed from the ground up for this role. The JLTV program is related to, but not the same as, the Future Tactical Truck System program. Lessons learned from the FTTS have been fed into the JLTV requirements. The future family of vehicles will comprise five armored versions, ranging from infantry combat vehicles, command vehicles,...

The Joint Precision Approach and Landing System is a military, all-weather landing system based on real-time differential correction of the GPS signal, augmented with a local area correction message, and transmitted to the user via secure means. The onboard receiver compares the current GPS-derived position with the local correction signal, deriving a highly accurate three-dimensional position capable of being used for all-weather approaches via an ILS- style display. While JPALS is similar to Local Area Augmentation System, but intended primarily for use by the military, some elements of JPALS may eventually see their way into civilian use to help protect high-value civilian operations against unauthorized signal alteration....

Optimization Tool for Bearing Engineers This book focuses on two important aspects of journal bearing design - namely a thermal prediction tool for both sliders and journal bearings as well as a five variable optimization technique using the hybrid scheme. A three-dimensional finite element thermo-hydrodynamic lubrication model that couples the Reynolds and energy equations is developed. The model uses the streamline upwind Petrov-Galerkin (SUPG) finite element method. The model is accurate and converges rapidly. The model is used to validate the optimization of journal bearings using data in the literature. Numerous simulation results appear in the appendices. Данное издание не является оригинальным....

In computing, JPEG is a commonly used method of compression for photographic images. The degree of compression can be adjusted, allowing a selectable tradeoff between storage size and image quality. JPEG typically achieves 10:1 compression with little perceptible loss in image quality. JPEG compression is used in a number of image file formats. JPEG/Exif is the most common image format used by digital cameras and other photographic image capture devices; along with JPEG/JFIF, it is the most common format for storing and transmitting photographic images on the World Wide Web. These format variations are often not distinguished, and are simply called JPEG. The MIME media type for JPEG is image/jpeg. Данное издание не...

Known in the West by their NATO reporting name as the Juliett class, the Project 651 diesel-electric submarines were designed in the late 1950s to provide the Soviet Navy with a nuclear strike capability against targets along the east coast of the United States and enemy combatants. The head of the design team was Abram Samuilovich Kassatsier. They carried four nuclear-capable cruise missiles with a range of ~300 miles, which could be launched while the submarine was surfaced and moving less than four knots. Once surfaced, the first missile could be launched in about five minutes; subsequent missiles would...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In science fiction, a jump gate (or 'jumpgate') is a fictional device able to create a wormhole or portal, allowing fast travel between two points in space. Several works use this term extensively. In the Babylon 5 television series, a jumpgate is an apparatus with the power to open a vortex that connects normal space with hyperspace, making interstellar travel take a matter of days. Jumpgates also provide beacons that allow navigation within hyperspace. The origin of the technology is unknown; all races learned to make jumpgates by examining already-existing ones. For example, humans acquired jumpgate technology by purchasing it from the Centauri. Some ships are large enough to house jumpgate...
