High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The moment distribution method (not to be confused with moment redistribution) is a structural analysis method for statically indeterminate beams and frames developed by Hardy Cross. It was published in 1930 in an ASCE journal. The method only accounts for flexural effects and ignores axial and shear effects. From the 1930s until computers began to be widely used in the design and analysis of structures, the moment distribution method was the most widely practiced method.

The Mondragon was the world's first semi-automatic rifle, and was designed by Mexican general Manuel Mondragon. He began work in 1882 and patented the weapon in 1887. It was gas-operated with a cylinder and piston arrangement, now very familiar but unusual at the time, and rotating bolt, locked by lugs in helical grooves in the receiver; it was also possible to operate it as a simple straight-pull bolt action. The caliber was 7 mm (.284 in) Mauser with an 8-round box magazine; a trial LMG version had a 20-round box and provision for a bipod, like the BAR; the Mexican Army also used a 100-round drum magazine for...

Mongolian wildland fires are a human-made disaster as these fire disasters became prominent since 1990s. The worst fire losses were in 1996, 192% of the GDP. This study reports recent wildland fire incidence and climate relationships analyzed with NASA-MODIS hotspots (fires) and NOAA weather data. Fires are categorized into spring fires from April to June in pasture areas; summer fires in July and August in forested areas, and autumn fires in September and October in forested areas. Fires frequently occur after 10 rainless days while 10 mm of daily precipitation reduces fire extent. A weeklong effective humidity below 35% coincided with large fires. From 2001 to 2007, mean temperatures increased 3.4 C in July and summer precipitation...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A monitor was a type of relatively small warship which was neither fast nor strongly armoured but carried disproportionately large guns and was used by some navies from the 1860s until the end of the Second World War. The monitors of the 19th century were turreted ironclad warships inspired by the original USS Monitor; as well as coastal ships which closely followed her design; the term 'monitor' also encompassed more flexible breastwork monitors, and was sometimes used as a generic term for any turreted ship. The term 'monitor' also represents the strongest of riverine warcraft, as river monitors. In the 20th century the term 'monitor' was revived for shallow-draft armoured shore bombardment...

With the advocating of smart grids and the fact that the occurrence of blackouts is more and more frequent in the world, the robust monitoring and optimization of power markets become more and more critical. In this book, four main topics have been introduced: 1) state estimation with the consideration of FACTs devices; 2) harmonic state estimation; 3) observability analysis of state estimation; and 4) optimal placement of capacitors. Flexible A.C. Transmission systems can be used to control the branch flows in deregulated power systems. A solution scheme, that allows easy incorporation of FACTs variables into state estimation, is designed and implemented. Due to the increasing levels of harmonics in today's power systems caused by...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A monowheel is a one-wheeled single-track vehicle similar to a unicycle. However, instead of sitting above the wheel, the rider sits either within it or next to it. The wheel is a ring, usually driven by smaller wheels pressing against its inner rim. Most are single-passenger vehicles, though multi-passenger models have been built. Pedal-powered monowheels were built in the late 19th century; most built in the 20th century have been motorized. Some modern builders refer to these vehicles as monocycles, though that term is also sometimes used to describe motorized unicycles. Today, monowheels are generally built and used for fun and entertainment purposes, though from the 1860s through to the...

A monster truck is an automobile, typically styled after pickup trucks, modified or purposely built with extremely large wheels and suspension. They are used for competition and popular Sports Entertainment and in some cases they are featured alongside Motocross races, mud bogging, tractor pulls and car-eating robots. They are most popular in the United States.Usually, a monster truck show involves the truck crushing smaller vehicles beneath its huge tires. These trucks can run up and over most man-made barriers, so they are equipped with remote shut-off switches, called the Remote Ignition Interuptor (RII), to help prevent an accident if the driver loses control at any time. At some events, only one truck is on the course at a time,...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Montana was a Missouri River steamboat, one of three "mega-steamboats" (along with its sister boats the Wyoming and the Dakota) built in 1879 at the end of the steamboat era on the Missouri—when steamboats were soon to be supplanted by the nation's expanding railroad network. It was 250 feet (76 m) long (excluding the paddle wheel) and 48.8 feet (14.9 m) wide and weighed 959 tons (870 tonnes), excluding cargo. For a while the Montana's size allowed it to compete with the railroads, but the railroads continued to close the gap. On June 22, 1884, the Montana met its fate when it collided with a railroad bridge near Bridgeton, Missouri. To allow its cargo to be unloaded, it was beached on...

The Monte Carlo library least-squares (MCLLS) approach essentially consists of using Monte Carlo simulation to generate the libraries of all the elements to be analyzed plus any other required background libraries. These libraries are then used in the linear library least-squares (LLS) approach with unknown measured spectra to analyze for all elements in the sample. Iterations of this are used until the LLS values gives satisfactory results. The integrated components include: (1) the Monte Carlo codes such as CEARXRF for forward generation of the necessary elemental library spectra for the LLS calculation for X-ray fluorescence; (2) generation of detector response functions (DRF) for detectors with linear and non-linear responses for...

The neighborhood is named after Edward F. Moore, a pioneer of cellular automata theory. It is one of the two most commonly used neighborhood types, the other one being the 4-cell von Neumann neighborhood. The well known Conway's Game of Life, for example, uses the Moore neighborhood. It is similar to the notion of 8-connected pixels in computer graphics. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга печатается по технологии принт-он-деманд после получения заказа.
