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....

In the future of digital home networking, Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology will be used as a wireless communication system to connect various devices like HDTVs, PCs, and Cell phones. One of the major challenges when designing UWB systems is the selection of the appropriate modulation scheme. Although M-ary Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) has better performance than M-ary Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) for M>2 in an UWB environment, it requires more accurate timing synchronization and has a higher computational complexity, particularly for large M. This book, therefore, provides a hybrid modulation scheme, called pulse amplitude position modulation (PAPM), which combines PPM and PAM constellations to provide a compromise between...

It combines a 35 mm grenade launcher with a 5.56 NATO assault rifle, both in a bullpup configuration, complete with targeting aids.The PAPOP project aims at providing, by 2010 or 2012, a versatile weapon capable of engaging enemy infantry, even protected, with a range of up to 600 metres.An industrial partnership was set up to answer the request, GIAT being the main contractor. The subsystems are designed by FN Herstal (for the assault...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A parabolic trough is a type of solar thermal energy collector. It is constructed as a long parabolic mirror (usually coated silver or polished aluminum) with a Dewar tube running its length at the focal point. Sunlight is reflected by the mirror and concentrated on the Dewar tube. The trough is usually aligned on a north-south axis, and rotated to track the sun as it moves across the sky each day.Alternatively the trough can be aligned on an east-west axis, this reduces the overall efficiency of the collector, due to cosine loss, but only requires the trough to be aligned with the change in seasons, avoiding the need for tracking motors.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A parabolic microphone is a microphone that uses a parabolic reflector to collect and focus sound waves onto a receiver, in much the same way that a parabolic antenna (e.g., satellite dish) does with radio waves. Typical uses of this microphone, which has unusually focused front sensitivity and can pick up sounds from many meters away, include nature recording, field audio for sports broadcasting, eavesdropping, law enforcement, and even espionage.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In classical mechanics and ballistics, the parabola of safety or safety parabola is the envelope of the parabolic trajectories of projectiles shot from a certain point with a given speed at different angles to horizon in a fixed vertical plane. The fact that this envelope is a parabola had been first established by Evangelista Torricelli and was later reproved by Johann Bernoulli using the infinitesimal calculus methods of Leibniz.The paraboloid of revolution obtained by rotating the safety parabola around the vertical axis is the boundary of the safety zone, consisting of all points that cannot be hit by a projectile shot from the given point with the given speed.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A parabolic reflector (or dish or mirror) is a reflective device used to collect or project energy such as light, sound, or radio waves. Its shape is that of a circular paraboloid, that is, the surface generated by a parabola revolving around its axis. The parabolic reflector transforms an incoming plane wave traveling along the axis into a spherical wave converging toward the focus. Conversely, a spherical wave generated by a point source placed in the focus is transformed into a plane wave propagating as a collimated beam along the axis. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A parabolic loudspeaker is a loudspeaker which seeks to focus its sound in coherent plane waves either by reflecting sound output from a speaker driver to a parabolic reflector aimed at the target audience, or by arraying drivers on a parabolic surface. The resulting beam of sound travels farther, with less dissipation in air, than horn loudspeakers, and can be sent to isolated audience targets, unlike line array loudspeakers. The parabolic loudspeaker has been used for such diverse purposes as directing sound at faraway targets in performing arts centers and stadia, for industrial testing, for intimate listening at museum exhibits, and as a sonic weapon. A parabolic loudspeaker can send sound...

It is also the name of an online FPS-style game. * 9x19mm Parabellum, the pistol cartridge adopted by NATO but the 9 mm NATO has different parameters than commercial makes. * 7.65x22mm Parabellum, also called .30 Luger in the USA, from which the 9x19mm cartridge was derived. The term may be used to refer to one of these cartridges, or to a German, Austrian or Swiss pistol chambered for one of those cartridges. The 9x19mm...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A parachute mine is a parachute-retarded naval mine dropped from an aircraft. They were mostly used in World War II by the Luftwaffe and initially by the Royal Air Force (RAF) Bomber Command.These mines were attached to parachutes to act as blast bombs; when detonated at roof level rather than on impact the aerodynamic effects of their blast were maximised. Instead of the shock waves from the explosion being cushioned by surrounding buildings, they could reach a wider area, with the potential to destroy a whole street of houses in a 100 m (330 ft), with windows being blown in up to 1.6 km (0.99 mi) away.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Parachute pants are a style of trousers characterised by the use of ripstop nylon and/or extremely baggy cuts. In the original loose-fitting, extraneously zippered style of the late 70s, "parachute" referred to the pants' synthetic nylon material. In the later 80s, "parachute" may have referred to the extreme bagginess of the pant. They are typically worn as menswear and are often brightly colored. Parachute pants became a fad in US culture in the 1980s as part of an increased cultural appropriation of breakdancing. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

On montre (voir l'effet Sagnac) que la circonference d'un disque tournant est differente vue dans le repere inertiel R et dans le repere attache R' attache au disque tournant a cause de la contraction de Lorentz. Mais comme le rayon du disque est perpendiculaire au mouvement de rotation, il ne subit pas de contraction de Lorentz. Par consequent, le rapport L /...

It utilises a paramotor and a ParaWing (a parafoil) attached to a road worthy vehicle to achieve sustained level flight. Should the engine fail, the vehicle can glide back to the ground. In the event of catastrophic wing failure, car connection system failure or mid-air collision, an emergency ballistic reserve parachute would be deployed. It requires three minutes to convert it from a car to an aircraft. The prototype model runs on biodiesel and is fully road-legal. Данное издание не...
