High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Jungle boots are a type of combat boot designed for use in jungle warfare or in hot, wet and humid environments, where a standard leather combat boot would be uncomfortable or unsuitable to wear. Jungle boots have vent holes in the instep and sometimes a canvas upper to aid in ventilation and drainage of moisture. The use of Jungle boots predates World War II, when small units of U.S. soldiers in Panama were issued rubber-soled, canvas-upper boots for testing. Developed in conjunction with the U.S. Rubber Company, a pair of Jungle boots weighed approximately three pounds. Field reports from the Panama Experimental Platoon on the new lightweight boots were positive, and Jungle boots were later...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The theoretical and experimental justification for the Schrodinger equation motivates the discovery of the Schrodinger equation, the equation that describes the dynamics of nonrelativistic particles. The motivation uses photons, which are relativistic particles with dynamics determined by Maxwell's equations, as an analogue for all types of particles.The quantum particle of light is called a photon. Light has both a wave-like and a particle-like nature. In other words, light can appear to be made of photons (particles) in some experiments and light can act like waves in other experiments. The dynamics of classical electromagnetic waves are completely determined by Maxwell's equations, the...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Grosskampfwagen or "K-Wagen" (short for G.K.-Wagen) was a German super-heavy tank, two prototypes of which were almost completed by the end of World War I. In June 1917, before the first A7V tanks had been completed, the German War Ministry ordered the development of a new superheavy tank intended to be used in break-through situations. Design work was carried out by Joseph Vollmer, a Reserve Captain and engineer working for the Verkehrstechnische Prufungskommission ("Transport-technologies Board of Examiners" of the army), and a Captain Weger. On June 28 1917 the War Ministry approved the draft design and ordered ten examples, five to be built by the Riebe ball-bearing factory in Berlin...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A kabuto is a helmet used with traditional Japanese armour as worn by samurai. It features a strong bowl, the "hachi", which protects the crown of the head, a suspended series of articulated plates to protect the neck, and often a crest of the clan. A kabuto was usually constructed from three to over a hundred metal plates, riveted together. The plates are usually arranged vertically, and radiate from an opening in the top called the "tehen" or "hachiman- za". The original purpose of the tehen was for the warrior to pass his top knot through. Although this usage was largely abandoned after the Kamakura- Muromachi period, the tehen remained as a feature of most helmets, and was decorated with a...

The Kaiserliche Marine or Imperial Navy was the German Navy created by the formation of the German Empire. It existed between 1871 and 1919, growing out of the Prussian Navy and Norddeutsche Bundesmarine. Kaiser Wilhelm II greatly expanded the Navy, causing a naval arms race between the German Empire and the British Empire. The Navy grew to become one of the greatest maritime forces in the world during its existence, second only to that of the Royal Navy. The navy was largely destroyed at Scapa Flow in 1919 by its own officers after the loss of the land war on the Western Front of World War I. Ships of the Kaiserliche Marine were designated SMS, for Seiner Majestat Schiff (His Majesty's Ship). Данное издание не...

The Kaiser class was a class of five battleships that were built in Germany prior to World War I and served in the German Imperial Navy during the war. They were the third class of German dreadnoughts, and the first to feature turbine engines and superfiring turrets. The five ships were Kaiser, Friedrich der Grosse, Kaiserin, Prinzregent Luitpold, and Konig Albert. As was usual for German battleships of the period, the Kaiser class mounted main guns that were smaller than those of their British rivals: 30.5 cm (12.0 in), compared to the 34.3 cm (13.5 in) guns of the British Orion-class battleship. All five ships saw action in the North Sea during the war; they served together as the VI Division of the III Battle Squadron. Four were...

This book is concerned with synchronization in communications systems. Synchronization failure may have catastrophic effects on the performance of a communication system. The Kalman filter has a great potential as a tool for synchronization. Although not widely used in the field of communications, the Kalman filter is popular in many other fields such as radar and navigation. Using the Kalman filter has many advantages. For the application, only the state space model of the problem is required. High performance is achieved with relatively low complexity. A single Kalman filter can solve a number of estimation problems encountered. In this work, the application of the Kalman filter to a number of synchronization and channel estimation...

The Kammerlader, or "chamber loader", was the first Norwegian breech loading rifle, and among the very first breech loaders adopted for use by an armed force anywhere in the world. A single shot black powder rifle, the kammerlader was operated with a crank mounted on the side of the receiver. This made it much quicker and easier to load than the weapons previously used. Kammerladers quickly gained a reputation for being fast and accurate rifles, and would have been a deadly weapon against massed ranks of infantry. Данное издание не является оригинальным.
