High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The UK-DMC satellite is one of a number of satellites in the Disaster Monitoring Constellation (DMC). It was built by Surrey Satellite Technology, who operate it via DMC International Imaging on behalf of the UK Space Agency. It was launched alongside other DMC satellites on 27 September 2003. As well as carrying remote sensing imaging sensors, the satellite also carries experimental payloads: the CLEO Cisco router in Low Earth Orbit, an experiment demonstrating GNSS reflectometry, and a water resistojet propulsion system. The UK-DMC demonstrated the first use of the Interplanetary Internet in space. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! UK01 is a mobile network in the UK, operated by Mapesbury Communications Ltd. Currently they do not provide any service; they plan on putting their transmitters inside WifiWireless networking boxes used by Spectrum. The service will run on the low power 1800Mhz spectrum. This means that 3G data connections will not be available on UK01's own network. In addition, the 1800Mhz spectrum has a short range so customers will not be able to wander far from the transmitter.

The class were built to the Damen Stan Patrol 4207 design in the Damen Shipyards in the Netherlands between 2001 and 2004, and have a steel hull with an aluminium superstructure. Much effort has been expended in making them quiet to reduce crew fatigue; their engines are raft-mounted, decks throughout the ships are of a floating type, and their compartments are constructed on a box-within-a-box principle. A 7-metre (23 ft) Rigid Inflatable Boat can be launched from the stern slipway. They are fitted with a 2,000-litre (440 imp gal) per minute fire fighting system for dealing with fires in other...

The Ukrainian Ground Forces are the land force component of the Military of Ukraine. They were formed from Soviet Army formations, units, and establishments, including three military districts (the Kiev, Carpathian, and Odessa Military Districts), that were on Ukrainian soil when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1990-92. Between the fall of the USSR and the late 1990s, Ukraine kept much army equipment from that era. Since then, however, Ukraine has upgraded its Ground Forces with advanced additions from domestic engineering and modifications. Currently, the Ukrainian Armed forces buy military equipment from Russia and other CIS states. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга...

The class, consisting of 6 vessels, is currently the only submarine type in service with the Royal Norwegian Navy. The ordering of a new Norwegian submersible design stemmed from a 1972 decision to modernize the Royal Norwegian Navy (RNoN) submarine flotilla, which then consisted of the aging Kobben class submarines. The construction of the vessels was an international project. The combat systems were made in Norway by Kongsberg, the attack sonar is German and the flank sonars French. The hull sections were produced in Norway, and then assembled in Germany by Thyssen Nordseewerke,...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! When a function or class is instantiated from a template, a specialization of that template is created by the compiler for the set of arguments used. However, the programmer may decide to implement a special version of a function for a given set of template arguments which is called an explicit specialization. If a class template is specialized by a subset of its parameters it is called partial template specialization. If all of the parameters are specialized it is a full specialization. Function templates cannot be partially specialized. Explicit specialization is used when the behavior of a function or class for particular choices of the template parameters must deviate from the generic...

A fabrication process for PFCB waveguide air-trench bends on silicon substrate with electron beam lithography (EBL) and autoalignment has been developed and a high efficiency air-trench bend (97.2% for TE polarization and 96.2% for TM polarization) has been demonstrated. The simulation predicts an optical efficiency of 98.5% for TE and 98.2% for TM when the Goos Hanchen shift is properly accounted for. We have adapted this process to making air trench bends in PFCB waveguides on polyimide substrates. Compared to silicon substrates, the polyimide substrates have the advantage of less coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatch with PFCB films, which improves fabrication repeatability and yield. Using air-trench bends, an ultracompact...

Bisher ist jedoch wenig uber ihren Einsatz an Holz im Allgemeinen und verklebtem Massivholz im Besonderen bekannt. Dieses Buch beschreibt Untersuchungen, an Prufkorpern aus Kiefer und Buche, die bewusst fehlerhaft verklebt wurden. Dabei galt es heraus zu finden, ob und wenn ja wie eine zerstorungsfreie oder -arme Ubertragung der Schallenergie auf die Prufkorper moglich ist und welche Holzeigenschaften die Anregung mit Leitungsultraschall in...

The combined effects of alkali and ultrasound treatment of wood flour on the mechanical properties of polypropylene-based wood/plastic composites (WPCs) were examined. FTIR measurements confirmed that the alkali treatment removed both hemicellulose and lignin from the wood, and there was an increase in the number of hydroxyl groups on the cellulose surface. This process was promoted by the application of ultrasound. Mechanical testing of WPC samples revealed that alkali treatment improved both composite strength and modulus when polypropylene grafted with maleic acid was used as a coupling agent. The strength increase is due to improved adhesion between the fiber and matrix, while improved modulus is due to the removal of lignin and...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ultra high vacuum (UHV) is the vacuum regime characterised by pressures lower than about 10?7 pascal or 100 nanopascals (10?9 mbar, ~10?9 torr). UHV requires the use of special materials in creating the vacuum system, extreme cleanliness to maintain the vacuum system, and baking of the entire system to remove water and other trace gases that adsorb on the surfaces of the chamber. At these low pressures the mean free path of a gas molecule is approximately 40 km, so gas molecules will collide with the chamber walls many times before colliding with each other. Almost all interactions therefore take place on various surfaces in the chamber. Данное издание не является...
