Interferometric synthetic aperture radar, also abbreviated InSAR or IfSAR, is a radar technique used in geodesy and remote sensing. This geodetic method uses two or more synthetic aperture radar images to generate maps of surface deformation or digital elevation, using differences in the phase of the waves returning to the satellite, or aircraft. The technique can potentially measure centimetre-scale changes in deformation over timespans of days to years. It has applications for geophysical monitoring of natural hazards, for example earthquakes, volcanoes and landslides, and also in structural engineering, in particular monitoring of subsidence and structural stability.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) was an astronomical observatory satellite primarily designed to take ultraviolet spectra. The satellite was a collaborative project between NASA, the UK Science Research Council and the European Space Agency (ESA). The mission was first proposed in early 1964, by a group of scientists in the United Kingdom, and was launched on January 26, 1978 aboard a NASA Delta rocket. The mission lifetime was initially set for 3 years, but in the end it lasted almost 18 years, with the satellite being shut down in 1996. The switch-off occurred for financial reasons, while the telescope was still functioning at near original efficiency.

From the George Washington Bridge, which carries I-95 across the Hudson River from New Jersey into New York City, it runs across upper Manhattan on the Trans-Manhattan Expressway and continues east across the Harlem River on the Alexander Hamilton Bridge and onto the Cross-Bronx Expressway. In the Bronx, I-95 leaves the Cross-Bronx at the Bruckner Interchange, joining the Bruckner...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Interstate 84 (I-84) is an Interstate Highway in the Western United States that runs from Portland, Oregon, to a junction with Interstate 80 near Echo, Utah. The highway is a fork of I-80 to serve the Pacific Northwest, and was originally numbered Interstate 80N. The highway was signed with the I-84 designation in 1980, when a 1977 change in guidelines took effect that discouraged highway numbers with directional suffixes. The renumbering resulted in two highways being numbered I-84, with the other residing in the Northeastern United States. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга печатается по технологии...

Since its inception in 1982, there have been two phases, 1983-1995 and 1995-present. The project is responsible for collection and analysis of weather satellite radiance measurements. It infers clouds' global distribution and properties, along with their diurnal, seasonal, and interannual variations. The results are studied to understand clouds in climate, including their effects on radiative energy exchanges, plus their role in the global water cycle. These datasets provide a systematic view of cloud behavior. Данное издание не является...

Interstate 26 (I-26) is a nominally east–west (but physically more northwest-southeast) main route of the Interstate Highway System in the Southeastern United States. I-26 runs from the junction of U.S. Route 11W and U.S. Route 23 in Kingsport, Tennessee, generally southeastward to U.S. Route 17 in Charleston, South Carolina. The portion from Mars Hill, North Carolina, east (compass south) to Interstate 240 in Asheville, North Carolina, has signs indicating FUTURE I-26 because the highway does not yet meet all of the Interstate Highway standards. A short realignment as an improvement in the expressway is also planned in Asheville. Prior to August 5, 2003, the highway's northwestern terminus...

The Internal Security Act (ISA) of Singapore confers on the government the right to arrest and detain individuals without trial in certain defined circumstances. The legislation originated in the wake of World War II, when a number of countries around the world introduced legislation that severely curtailed the rights of known or suspected communists. The most notable ISA case was the Operation Coldstore in 1963 which led to the arrest of some 100 left-wing politicians and trade unionists, including members of the opposition party Barisan Sosialis who were opposing Singapore's merger with Malaysia. While the ISA has not been invoked in recent years against political opponents, the continued...

Local Area Augmentation System (LAAS) is being utilized for aircraft precision approach and landings. It relies on Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) in calculating the corrections for the aircraft using ground based stations, and sending them to the aircraft via a VHF link. The system achieves meter accuracies. Interference is a major source of error that is not correctable via DGPS. This book advances the LAAS ground based station architecture by analyzing the performance and designing new components that will enhance its functionality, especially in the presence of interference sources. Analysis and design of antenna arrays utilizing beam-forming and null-steering is presented. The performance of signal processing...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Intermodal freight transport involves the transportation of freight in an intermodal container or vehicle, using multiple modes of transportation (rail, ship, and truck), without any handling of the freight itself when changing modes. The method reduces cargo handling, and so improves security, reduces damages and losses, and allows freight to be transported faster. Reduced costs versus over road trucking is the key benefit for intracontinental use. The negative is that it takes longer then normal truck delivery would. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

Among various types of PM machines, the Interior Permanent Magnet Machine (IPMM) is gaining popularity in many applications because of its robust rotor and prospect of wider CPSR. However, the design and control of the IPM machine are mentioned in many PM machine technology books merely as a variation of the conventional PM machines which is inadequate for professionals involve in development of the IPMM.This book addresses the issue by starting with the review of the existing IPMM technology and then leading to the optimization process for developing a new prototype based on a particular application...

Chilled gas pipelines buried through the boundary between permafrost and non-permafrost soil are subjected to serious deformation due to differential frost heave. In order to predict bending stress and strain of pipelines for engineering design, it is necessary to develop an adequate model for interactive behavior between frost heave and pipelines. This work presents a potential method based on beam on elastic foundation model, two-dimensional temperature distribution analysis, and Takashi’s equation, in order to contribute the above-mentioned problem. The governing differential equation is solved analytically according to the boundary and continuity conditions. Spring coefficient and distributed loads in permafrost and non-permafrost...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Intermediate cartridges are military rifle cartridges that are less powerful than typical full power battle rifle cartridges such as the 7.92mm Mauser or US .30-06, but still significantly more powerful than the pistol cartridges (e.g. 9mm Parabellum) used in sub-machine guns. As their recoil is significantly reduced compared to high power rifle cartridges, fully automatic rifles firing intermediate cartridges are relatively easy to control. However, even though less powerful than a traditional rifle cartridge, the ballistics are still sufficient for an effective range of 300 - 500 metres, which are the maximum typical engagement ranges in combat. This allowed for the development of the assault...

An intermodal container or freight container (commonly shipping container) is a reusable transport and storage unit for moving products and raw materials between locations or countries; the terms container or box may be used on their own within the context of shipping. Containers manufactured to ISO specifications may be referred to as ISO containers and the term high-cube container is used for units that are taller than normal. There are approximately seventeen million intermodal containers in the world and a large proportion of the world's long distance freight generated by international trade is transported inside shipping containers (as opposed to break bulk cargo). The containerization system developed from a design of an 8-foot...
