High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The dagger-axe sometimes confusingly translated "halberd") is a type of weapon that was in use from Shang dynasty until at least Han dynasty China. It consists of a dagger-shaped blade made of jade (ceremonial), bronze, or later iron, mounted by the tang of the dagger to a perpendicular wooden shaft with a spear point. There is a variant type with a divided two-part head, consisting of the usual straight blade and a scythe-like blade. Though the weapon saw frequent use in ancient China, the use of the dagger-axe decreased dramatically after the Qin and Han dynasties. By the medieval Chinese dynasties, the use of the dagger-axe was almost nonexistent. The horizontally aligned blade could be...

The Dahabeya is a sailing boat that is based out of Esna or Aswan for 3, 7, 9 or 12 nights cruises on the Nile river. Originally built to carry celebrities and royal families, the Dahabeya was a luxury pleasure boat for the Nile. The name means 'golden boat' alluding to the gold and dongola decoration. The name came to be applied to other boats with similar luxuries. The Dahabeya was later refitted as a cruise ship and now cruises the Nile River and Lake Nasser. Today many newer Dahabeyas have been built for luxury cruises. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга...

The DAMA/NaI experiment was designed to detect dark matter using the direct detection technique. It was located at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy and collected data during the period 1996-2002. Its successor is the DAMA/LIBRA experiment, which uses very similar detector technology but has a larger target mass of 250 kg.The DAMA/NaI set up consisted of 9 scintillating thallium-doped sodium iodide crystals of 9.7 kg each. Electrons and nuclei recoiling after a collision cause emissions of photons that are detected using photomultiplier tubes. A detected recoil can be caused by dark matter particles or by the background. The revolution of the Earth around the Sun causes an annual modulation of the dark matter flux. This...

The objective of this book is to develop an integrated nondestructive testing (NDT) capability for the detection of defects, damages, and rebars in the near-surface region of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP)-retrofitted concrete cylinders through the use of far-field electromagnetic (EM) measurements (or EM waves or radar signals). In this development, two far-field monostatic ISAR (inverse synthetic aperture radar) measurement schemes are identified for collecting radar measurements, and the backprojection algorithm is applied for processing radar measurements into spatial images for visualization and condition assessment. Reconstructed images are further analyzed by mathematical morphology to extract a numerical index representing...

The fatigue and damage of solder joints and also the potential for interface failure within BGA packages are caused by thermal cycling. In case of portable electronic products, fatigue is caused by repetitive drop and shock during transportation, or vibrations experienced in land-vehicles, air-planes, ships etc. The solder joint failure can then be attributed to the structural dynamics of the product. Therefore there is a need to develop predictive techniques for electronic failure mechanisms in shock and drop-impact. Deformation kinematics of printed circuit board assembly using high-speed imaging has been studied. Explicit finite element models are developed for fine-pitch BGAs using smeared property approach and validated with...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In information theory and computer science, the Damerau–Levenshtein distance (named after Frederick J. Damerau and Vladimir I. Levenshtein) is a "distance" (string metric) between two strings, i.e., finite sequence of symbols, given by counting the minimum number of operations needed to transform one string into the other, where an operation is defined as an insertion, deletion, or substitution of a single character, or a transposition of two characters. In his seminal paper, Damerau not only distinguished these four edit operations but also stated that they correspond to more than 80% of all human misspellings. Damerau's paper considered only misspellings that could be corrected with at most...

The Downrange Anti-missile Measurement Program or DAMP was an applied research project to obtain scientific data, just prior to and during re-entry, on intermediate- and intercontinental-range ballistic missiles as they returned to earth. The program was funded by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) under the technical direction of the Army Ordnance Missile Command (AOMC) during the period 1 January 1959 through 30 September 1963.

It is 660mm in diameter, which also makes it one of Australia's largest in terms of transmission capacity. At the time of its commissioning in 1984, it was one of the longest gas pipelines in the world.The pipeline runs from a point near Withnell Bay, on the Burrup Peninsula near Dampier, to Bunbury in the south-west of the State. It carries natural gas, most of which enters the pipeline at the domestic gas plant associated with the North West Shelf Venture project. The other main inlet point is approximately 135 km south of Dampier, where one of the...

Dan Air Engineering Limited was the maintenance arm of Dan Air Services Limited, one of Britain's foremost wholly privately owned, independent airlines during the 1970s and '80s. Dan-Air Engineering was established in 1954 at Lasham Airfield to maintain the fledgling airline's rapidly growing fleet as well as to cater to the maintenance requirements of third parties. The organisation embarked on a major expansion during the 1970s, following the introduction of several new aircraft types into its sister airline's fleet. This led to the opening of a new maintenance base at Manchester. Further expansion followed in the 1980s, leading to the opening of a new widebody-capable maintenance facility at Gatwick, its sister airline's main...

The Daniell cell was invented in 1836 by John Frederic Daniell, a British chemist and meteorologist, and consisted of a copper pot filled with a copper sulphate solution, in which was immersed an unglazed earthenware container filled with sulphuric acid and a zinc electrode. He was searching for a way to eliminate the hydrogen bubble problem found in the Voltaic pile, and his solution was to use a second electrolyte to consume the hydrogen produced by the first. The Daniell cell was a great improvement over the existing technology used in the early days of battery development. A later variant of the Daniell cell called the gravity cell or crowfoot cell was invented in the 1860s by a Frenchman...

Da die Bildgebung des Handgelenks meist nur zweidimensional durchgefuhrt wird, ist das Wissen um die Biomechanik des Karpus eingeschrankt. Die Durchfuhrung einer dreidimensionalen kinematographischen Darstellung konnte diese Wissenslucken teilweise schliessen. Das dadurch erweiterte Verstandnis fur die karpale Kinematik wird Verbesserungen bei chirurgischen Eingriffen, in der Prothetik und in der Diagnostik mit sich bringen. Allerdings bestehen Probleme, welche die Durchfuhrung einer 3D Kinematographie erschweren. Die zurzeit verwendeten Mehrzeilencomputertomographen bieten nicht genugend kurze Aufnahmezeiten. Ein weiteres Hindernis stellt die Strahlenbelastung des Patienten dar. Im Rahmen der Arbeit werden dennoch mehrere...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Darts are missile weapons, designed to fly such that a sharp, often weighted point will strike first. They can be distinguished from javelins by fletching (i.e., feathers on the tail) and a shaft that is shorter and/or more flexible, and from arrows by the fact that they are not of the right length to use with a normal bow. The term has been used to describe an extremely wide variety of projectiles, from heavy spear-like ammunition for siege engines or atlatls to tiny poisoned needles for use in blowguns. Some of the earliest evidence of advanced tool use includes remnants of an early type of dart, which can be considered the ancestor of arrows as well as bows. Reconstructions of this system...
