High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Panzerkampfwagen VIII Maus was a German super-heavy tank design, and the heaviest tank to reach the complete working prototype stage in World War II. The basic design known as the VK7001/Porsche Type 205 was suggested by Ferdinand Porsche to Adolf Hitler in June 1942, who subsequently approved it. The design up to then had been the culmination of work done by Porsche who had won the contract for the heavy tank that March. Work on the design began in earnest; the first prototype, to be ready in 1943 was initially to receive the name Mammut. This was reportedly changed to Mauschen in December 1942 and finally Maus in February 1943. Данное издание не является...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Panzerschreck (German: tank terror) was the popular name for the Raketenpanzerbuchse ('rocket armor rifle', abbreviated to RPzB), an 88 mm calibre reusable anti-tank rocket launcher developed by Nazi Germany in World War II. Another popular nickname was Ofenrohr ("stove pipe"). It was issued to infantry to bolster their anti-tank capability. The weapon was shoulder-launched and fired a rocket-propelled, fin-stabilized grenade with a shaped charge warhead. It was made in much smaller numbers than the Panzerfaust, which was a disposable recoilless rifle firing an anti-tank warhead. In 1941, when the Germans encountered the new Soviet tank designs such as the T-34, they quickly discovered the...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Panzerjager (German "tank-hunters") are German armoured fighting vehicles of the Second World War.The designation "Panzerjager" is derived from the branch of service going by the same name. "Jager" (German "hunter") was the common labeling for highly mobile infantry troops in German armies. Units designated to fight tanks were named "Panzerjager" and so were their vehicles. Comparable to their tasks were the allied tank destroyers, though their design was quite different. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Panzerkampfwagen 38(t) was a Czech tank used by Germany during World War II. The (t) stands for tschechisch, the German word for Czech. The special vehicle designation for the tank in Germany was Sd.Kfz. 140. The Panzer 38(t) was a conventional pre-World War II tank design, with riveted armor and rear engine. The riveted armor was mostly not sloped, and varied in thickness from 10 mm to 25 mm in most versions. Later models increased this to 50 mm by bolting on an additional 25 mm armor to the front. Side armors received additional 15mm armor from Ausf. E onward. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга печатается по...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Panzerwurfmine (abbreviated to PWM) was a shaped charge hand-thrown anti-tank grenade used by Luftwaffe ground troops in World War II.For any high-explosive anti-tank mine or grenade to be effective against armour, it must sit squarely on to the armour, so that the high-velocity jet of metal punches through the armour at a ninety degree angle. A way of making sure this happens is to place the charge onto the armour by hand. However, this puts the participant into grave danger from defensive fire from the tank and other enemies. A thrown version would be more versatile, but it would be hard to ensure the ninety degree angle. Данное издание не является...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Papermaking is the process of making paper, a substance which is used ubiquitously today for writing and packaging. In papermaking a dilute suspension of fibers in water is drained through a screen, so that a mat of randomly interwoven fibers is laid down. Water is removed from this mat of fibers by pressing and drying to make paper. Most paper is made from wood pulp, but other fiber sources such as cotton and textiles may be used. Papermaking is known to have been traced back to China about 105 CE, when Tsai Lun, an official attached to the Imperial court during the Han Dynasty (202 BCE-220 CE), created a sheet of paper using mulberry and other bast fibres along with fishnets, old rags, and...

There have been many standard sizes of paper at different times and in different countries, but today there are two widespread systems in use: the international standard (A4 and its siblings) and the North American sizes.The international paper size standard, ISO 216, is based on the German DIN 476 standard for paper sizes. ISO paper sizes are all based on a single aspect ratio of square root of 2, or approximately 1:1.4142. The base format is a sheet of paper measuring 1 m in area (A0 paper size). Successive paper sizes in the series A1, A2, A3, and so forth, are defined by halving the preceding paper size. The most frequently used paper size is A4 (210 x 297 mm). Данное издание не является...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A paper mill is a factory devoted to making paper from vegetable fibres such as wood pulp, old rags and other ingredients using a Fourdrinier machine or other type of paper machine.Historical investigations into the origin of the paper mill are complicated by differing definitions and loose terminology from modern authors. Many scholars use the term to refer to all kinds of mills, whether powered by humans, by animals or by water. However, the propensity of these authors to refer indiscriminately to any ancient paper manufacturing centre as a "mill", without further specifying its exact power drive, has increased the difficulty of identifying the particularly efficient water-powered type....

However, the planes' developers, Taduo Toda (see paper plane world records) and fellow enthusiast Shinji Suzuki, an aeronautical engineer and professor at Tokyo University, postponed the attempt after acknowledging it would be all but impossible to track the planes during their week-long journey to Earth, assuming any of them survived the searing descent. The developers continue, in 2009, with hopes that China or Russia will back further efforts on the project. Данное...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Paperboard is (like paper) a 'vegetable-fibre web' formed from a water suspension. While there is no rigid differentiation between paper and paperboard, paperboard is generally thicker (usually over 0.25 mm or 10 points) than paper. According to ISO standards, paperboard is a paper with a basis weight (grammage) above 224 g/m , but there are exceptions. Paperboard can be single or multi-ply. Paperboard used for the manufacture of folding cartons and rigid set-up boxes is often called boxboard. Paperboards used for the manufacture of corrugated fiberboard are called containerboard. It can be easily cut and formed, is lightweight, and is strong used in packaging. Another enduse would be graphic...

There are three categories of paper that can be used as feedstocks for making recycled paper: mill broke, pre-consumer waste, and post-consumer waste. Mill broke is paper trimmings and other paper scrap from the manufacture of paper, and is recycled internally in a paper mill. Pre-consumer waste is material that was discarded before it was ready for consumer use. Post-consumer waste is material discarded after consumer use such as old magazines, old newspapers, office waste, old telephone directories, and residential mixed paper. Paper suitable for recycling is called "scrap paper". Данное...

The Fourdrinier uses a conveyor belt in the wet end to create a contineous paper web transforming a source of wood pulp into a final paper product.The main other paper machine type is the cylinder mould machine using a rotating cylinder partially immerge in a tank of fiber slurry in the wet end to form a paper web, giving a more random distribution of the cellulose fibres.
