High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Saegheh 40 mm anti-personnel rocket was developed to extend the utility of the RPG-7 portable RPG in service with the Iranian forces. It replaces the standard 30 mm warhead with a high-explosive 80 mm tandem HEAT warhead. A rocket or rocket vehicle is a missile, spacecraft, aircraft or other vehicle which obtains thrust by ejecting a jet of fast moving fluid from a rocket engine. The action of the fluid against the inside of combustion chambers and expansion nozzles is able to accelerate the fluid to extremely high speed, and this exerts a large reactive thrust on the rocket (an equal and opposite reaction according to Newton's third law).

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The "safe action" is a firing pin lock system which Glock developed to be used in the vast majority of their pistols. The action is very similar to the quick action used by Walther and other pistol manufacturers. The system consists of one external and two internal safeties which use a striker-engaged firing pin, rather than the more traditional hammer-engaged. It uses additional precautions to prevent the firing pin from moving or being struck if the firearm were to be dropped or shaken. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A Safe Load Indicator (SLI) is a device fitted to a crane designed to alert the operator if the lift is exceeding the safe operating range of the machinery. In some cases, the device will physically lock the machinery in circumstances it determines to be unsafe. SLI systems are usually composed of a microprocessor connected to various sensors on the crane itself. The SLI measures the angle and extension of the boom along with the load weight and compares this with the manufacturer's specifications to determine if the lift is safe. A safe load indicator has the capability of detecting the angle, weight of load lifted, and ground radius of any lifting device. It controls the lifting equipment to...

The safety comes from heavier glass, a secure screw-on metal lid, and two flat sides which prevent it from rolling if knocked over.As surgeon Dr. Godakumbura saw many burn cases caused by kerosene lamp fires. Over 1 million homes in Sri Lanka do not have electricity, and rely on kerosene lamps for illumination, often improvised lamps made from bottles. These tall lamps tip easily, and when they do, the wick holder often falls out and starts a sudden, intense fire. Often the fuel falls on a nearby person, setting them ablaze and resulting in severe burns, often...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A safe (also called strongbox, coffer or kist) is a secure lockable box used for securing valuable objects against theft or damage. A safe is usually a hollow cuboid or cylinder, with one face removable or hinged to form a door. The body and door may be cast from metal (such as steel) or formed out of plastic through blow molding. It is often possible to open a safe without access to the key or knowledge of the combination; this activity is known as safe-cracking and is a popular theme in heist films. A diversion safe, or hidden safe, is a safe that is made from an otherwise ordinary object such as a book, a candle, a can, or even a wall outlet plug. Valuables are placed in these hidden safes,...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Safe-cracking is the process of opening a safe, generally without the combination. It may also refer to a computer hacker's attempts to break into a secured computer system, in which case it may be shortened to "cracking" or black hat hacking. Secured boxes have existed for centuries, but it wasn't until the late 18th century that use of cast iron became widespread and was used to create solid metal boxes. During the 19th century, safe-cracking techniques (known as box jobs) became widely used in bank robberies. In the 20th century, improvements in steel production and a decreasing reliance on physical currency led to a decrease in the prevalence of safe-cracking. Данное издание...

Safeguard was designed to protect U.S. ICBM missile sites from counterforce attack, thus preserving the option of an unimpeded retaliatory strike. Safeguard used much of the same technology of the earlier Sentinel Program, which had been designed to protect U.S. cities. Sentinel was developed but never deployed. Safeguard was planned for several sites within the United States, but only one was completed. Until the Ground-Based Midcourse Defense system was deployed, the Stanley R. Mickelsen Safeguard complex in Nekoma, North Dakota, with the separate long-range detection radar located...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The safety of the Mass Rapid Transit system in Singapore was questioned by the public after several accidents on the system during the 1980s and 1990s. Most problems have been addressed, and many safety measures are visible to users of the system. 5 August 1993 (7:50am) - Two Kawasaki Heavy Industries C151 Trains collided with each other at Clementi Station, resulting in 132 injuries. The collision happened because a work train that did maintenance work earlier that morning had spilled some oil onto the tracks. One of the trains passing by that stretch of track that morning had been unable to brake in time because of the oil, resulting in a collision with a stationary train at the station which...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A safety reflector is a wearable retroreflector intended for pedestrians. It is similar to reflective stripes that can be found on safety vests and clothing worn by road workers and rescue workers. They are sometimes erroneously called luminous badges or luminous tags, but this is incorrect as they do not themselves produce light, but only reflect it. A safety reflector helps to make a pedestrian visible to vehicles on the road up to three times further away than without a reflector, since it reflects the light from the headlights of an oncoming vehicle. Safety reflectors are especially useful in rural areas where there are no street lights. Данное издание не является...

As an important component of active and sustainable transportation, cycling is recognised as a legitimate transportation mode. However, to be useful, bikeways need to provide cyclists using them with a high level of safety. Unexpected changes in the horizontal and vertical geometry or cross-section of a bikeway are hazards to cyclists that can be minimised through safety audits. A safety audit of the existing bikeways in Calgary, Alberta was undertaken as a case study to determine the relative safety of different bicycle facilities. Lateral and vertical clearance, sight distance, grades, street furniture, signage, bikeway width and quality were all reviewed as part of this audit. These design elements formed the basis of the safety audit...

The main difference between film and laminated glass is that the film can be applied to the glass or glazing after manufacture or installation, i.e., it is a retrofit product. These films are used widely all over the world; they can be found on trains, buses, cars, and buildings.The films are adhesive coated to bond them to the glass. The better safety films are smooth-coated, because they have far superior optical clarity.Safety and security window films are designed to perform under adverse conditions. As such,...

These razors eliminate the possibility of a user being seriously injured by the blade, as is possible with a straight razor. Prior to the invention of the first safety razor most men used a straight razor. These razors are still available today from several different manufacturers, but they are not very popular, because they require more skill and attention to use properly.Described as a razor where "a small blade is held in a suitable frame and provided with a guard to prevent the edge of the razor from cutting into the skin", the first American safety razor was patented in 1880 by the Kampfe...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The safety life cycle is the series of phases from initiation and specifications of safety requirements, covering design and development of safety features in a safety-critical system, and ending in decommissioning of that system. The basic concept in building software safety, ie safety features in software, is that safety characteristics and behaviour of the software and system must be specified and designed into the system. The problem for any systems designer lies in reducing the risk to an acceptable level and of course, the risk tolerated will vary between applications. When a software application is to be used in a safety-related system, then this must be borne in mind at all stages in...
