High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! An overhead power line is an electric power transmission line suspended by towers or poles. Since most of the insulation is provided by air, overhead power lines are generally the lowest-cost method of transmission for large quantities of electric power. Towers for support of the lines are made of wood, steel, concrete, aluminum, and occasionally reinforced plastics. The bare wire conductors on the line are generally made of aluminum, though some copper wires are used in medium-voltage distribution and low-voltage connections to customer premises.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! An overhead valve (OHV) engine, also informally called pushrod engine or I-head engine, is a type of piston engine that places the camshaft within the cylinder block (usually beside and slightly above the crankshaft in a straight engine or directly above the crankshaft in the V of a V engine), and uses pushrods or rods to actuate rocker arms above the cylinder head to actuate the valves. Lifters or tappets are located in the engine block between the camshaft and pushrods. The later overhead camshaft (OHC) design avoids the use of pushrods by putting the camshaft in the cylinder head.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In telephony, especially in North America, an overlay plan is the practice of introducing a new area code by applying it onto a geographic area that is already occupied by one or more existing area codes, resulting in two (or more) area codes serving the same area. Prior to the introduction of overlay plans, the method of introducing new area codes (also known as numbering plan areas or NPAs) in a region was to divide the existing territory of one area code into two (or more) pieces, allowing the more established or developed section to retain the original area code, and changing the numbering space of the other section(s) to have a new area code.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Overspeed is a condition in which an engine is allowed or forced to turn beyond its design limit. The consequences of running an engine too fast vary by engine type and model and depend upon several factors, chief amongst them the duration of the overspeed and by the speed attained. With some engines even a momentary overspeed can result in greatly reduced engine life or even catastrophic failure. The speed of an engine is ordinarily measured in revolutions per minute (RPM).

The Nokia Maps product 'Smart2Go', later renamed Nokia Maps and now Ovi Maps, initially came into existence, after Nokia made the smart2go application free to download, when in August 2006 it acquired the German route planning software company Gate5. Nokia Maps was expanded later, when Nokia acquired Chicago, Illinois based, digital map supplier NAVTEQ Corp. to build further on their smart2go mapping application.

The thermal spray industry has an estimated $4 to $5 billion in annual sales worldwide. Despite the widespread use of thermal spray, the science behind the process is still not fully understood. Thermal spray coatings have been traditionally designed empirically, with much trial and error in the laboratory, until a set of input parameters that produces a satisfactory coating is identified. Knowledge of the in-flight droplet behavior and spray plume characteristics is important to understanding the formation of thermal spray microstructures, which is in turn necessary for the prediction of thermal sprayed coating properties and performance. Since the quantity, concentration and distribution of oxides can affect coating properties and...

Alloys of nickel are the most common but work is being done on iron aluminum alloys. ODS steels are used in nuclear applications. ODS materials are used on space crafts as a layer designed to protect the vehicle, especially during re-entry into the atmosphere. Also, noble metal alloy ODS materials, for example, platinum-based alloys, are used in glass production. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

Acute liver failure is a devastating condition with higher than 80% mortality. Currently the only successful treatment is orthotopic liver transplantation. The high mortality rate could be reduced if a system could be developed that could bridge the patient either until recovery (due to the liver’s well-known regeneration ability) or until transplantation. The CSIR and University of Pretoria (UP) have designed and developed a novel bio-artificial liver support system (BALSS) that utilizes a perfluorooctyl bromide (PFOB) emulsion as artificial oxygen carrier. A study was carried out to investigate relevant aspects relating to the PFOB emulsion, i.e. the formulation, manufacturing procedure, stability, rheology and mass transfer...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The ozalid process is a process of printing positive images on paper from patterns on film or other translucent media. It is akin to creating a photogram, using chemically treated paper. A transparent film with the pattern to be printed is placed on a diazo compound coated paper. This sandwich is exposed to ultraviolet light. After a 15 sec to 5 min exposure, ammonia vapour is used to develop the film image on to the paper. Its main use was for making copies of electrical, mechanical and civil engineering drawings. It is still used widely in developing countries. It is also used for proofing, as it produces an image very close to the finished work. Данное издание не...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The P-15 Termit was a type of missile developed by the Soviet Union's Raduga design bureau in the 1950s. Its GRAU designation was 4K40, and its NATO reporting name was Styx or SS-N-2. In Russian service today it also seems to be called Rubezh. China acquired the design in 1958 and created at least four versions: CSS-N-1 Scrubbrush and CSS-N-2 versions were developed for ship-launched operation, while the CSS-C-2 Silkworm and CSS-C-3 Seersucker missiles were used for coastal defense. Other names for this basic type of missile include: HY-1, SY-1, and FL-1 Flying Dragon. Despite the huge size, the P-15 was built in thousands and installed on many classes of ships from MTB to destroyer hulls, as...

It was developed for the United States Navy by Lockheed to replace the PV-1 Ventura and PV-2 Harpoon, and being replaced in turn with the P-3 Orion. Designed as a land-based aircraft, the Neptune never made a carrier landing, although a small number of aircraft were converted for carrier use and successfully launched. The type was successful in export, seeing service with several armed forces. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга печатается по технологии принт-он-деманд после получения заказа.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Lockheed P-3 Orion is a maritime patrol aircraft used by numerous navies and air forces around the world, primarily for maritime patrol, reconnaissance, anti-surface warfare and anti-submarine warfare. The P-3 Orion, originally designated P3V, is based on the same design philosophy as the Lockheed L-188 Electra. It is not the same aircraft structurally in that it has had 7 ft (2.1 m) of fuselage removed forward of the wings, as well as myriad internal, external, and airframe production technique enhancements. The prototype YP3V-1/YP-3A BuNo 148276 was in fact modified from the third Electra airframe c/n 1003. The P-3 Orion served as the replacement for the postwar era P-2 Neptune and P-5...

Although no P-59s went into combat, it paved the way for another design generation of U.S. turbojet-powered aircraft and was the first turbojet fighter to have its turbojet engine and inlet nacelles integrated within the main fuselage.

The Mercator was an unsuccessful contender for a United States Navy requirement for a long-range maritime patrol bomber, with the Lockheed P2V Neptune chosen instead. It saw a limited life as a long-range electronic reconnaissance aircraft. Its most unusual feature was that it was powered by a combination of piston engines and turbojets, the latter being in the rear of the engine nacelles. Данное издание не является оригинальным.
