In a typical modern steel ship, the structure consists of watertight and non-tight decks, major transverse and longitudinal members called watertight ( and also sometimes non-tight ) bulkheads, intermediate members such as girders, stringers and webs, and minor members called ordinary transverse frames, frames, or longitudinals, depending on the structural arrangement.

The transverse rigidity of this structure must therefore come from some source other than interlocking bricks, and the device used is the insertion at regular intervals of wall ties into the cavity wall ’ s mortar beds.

From its initial startup, the collider itself had the capability to produce particles like the J / ψ and the upsilon, as well as observable jet structure ; however, the particle detector experiments were not configured to observe events with large momentum transverse to the beamline, leaving these discoveries to be made at other experiments in the mid-1970s.

At the instant of any observation of an object, the apparent position of the object is displaced from its true position by an amount which depends solely upon the transverse component of the velocity of the observer, with respect to the vector of the incoming beam of light ( i. e., the line actually taken by the light on its path to the observer ).

Another way to state this is that the emitting object may have a transverse velocity with respect to the observer, but any light beam emitted from it which reaches the observer, cannot, for it must have been previously emitted in such a direction that its transverse component has been " corrected " for.

When looking at a cross section of a beam of light, the length over which the phase is correlated is called the transverse coherence length.

The two longitudinal arches serve as pillars for the transverse arch which run obliquely across the tarsometatarsal joints.

) There are variants of μSR, e. g. muon spin rotation, which is affected by the presence of a magnetic field applied transverse to the muon beam direction ( since muons are typically produced in a spin-polarized state from the decay of pions ), and avoided level crossing ( ALC ), which is also called level crossing resonance ( LCR ).

The Ampex system was called Quadruplex and used tape, mounted on reels like audio tape, which wrote the signal in what is now called transverse scan.

They are characterised by robust craniodental anatomy, including gorilla-like cranial crests, which suggest strong muscles of mastication, without the transverse cranial crest also present on modern gorillas.

It was designed to test the transverse Doppler effect – the redshift of light from a moving source in a direction perpendicular to its velocity – which had been predicted by Einstein in 1905.

Consider a traveling transverse wave ( which may be a pulse ) on a string ( the medium ).

** The open flute family, in which the player's lips form a stream of air that goes directly from the players lips to the edge, such as transverse flutes and end-blown flutes.

Many lasers emit beams that approximate a Gaussian profile, in which case the laser is said to be operating on the fundamental transverse mode, or " TEM < sub > 00 </ sub > mode " of the laser's optical resonator.

A transverse wave is one in which the amplitude vector is orthogonal to k, which is the case for electromagnetic waves in an isotropic medium.

Between the annular and diagonal muscles exist fine blood vessels, which lie below the superficially recognisable transverse rings of the skin and are responsible for the pseudo-segmented markings.

The transverse de-focusing effect of this radial field gradient is compensated by ridges on the magnet faces which vary the field azimuthally as well.

In radio-frequency applications up to a few gigahertz, the wave propagates primarily in the transverse electric magnetic ( TEM ) mode, which means that the electric and magnetic fields are both perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

Weaving is done by intersecting the longitudinal threads, the warp, i. e. " that which is thrown across ", with the transverse threads, the weft, i. e. " that which is woven ".

Metaxylem vessels and cells are usually larger ; the cells have thickenings which are typically either in the form of ladderlike transverse bars ( scalariform ) or continuous sheets except for holes or pits ( pitted ).

This groove represents the superior vertebral notch, and serves for the transmission of the vertebral artery, which, after ascending through the foramen in the transverse process, winds around the lateral mass in a direction backward and medially ; it also transmits the suboccipital nerve ( first spinal nerve ).

The doctor, he noticed, was attempting a transverse movement towards the stairs, but before the movement could be completed a distinct and audible cluck ruffled the air in the hollow of the stair-well.

The cheek teeth were short-crowned ( brachyodont ), with the tubercles more-or-less completely fused into transverse ridges, or cross-crests ( lophodont type ), and the total number of teeth was in one case the typical 44, but in another was fewer.

They always used two-stroke engines and, from 1931, the company was a pioneer in front-wheel drive and transverse mounting.

However, a century later, Young and Fresnel revived the wave theory of light when they pointed out that light could be a transverse wave rather than a longitudinal wave — the polarization of a transverse wave ( like Newton's " sides " of light ) could explain birefringence, and in the wake of a series of experiments on diffraction the particle model of Newton was finally abandoned.

The DKW Schnellaster, manufactured from 1949 to 1962 was a small monospace ( or one-box ) design featuring its front wheels set forward of the passenger cabin, a short, sloping aerodynamic hood, front-wheel drive, transverse engine, flat load floor throughout with flexible seating and cargo accommodations – the key design ingredients that describe the modern minivan configuration popularized in such notable examples as the Renault Espace and Chrysler Voyager / Caravan minivans.

2D / 3D reconstruction: Early PET scanners had only a single ring of detectors, hence the acquisition of data and subsequent reconstruction was restricted to a single transverse plane.

At that time, the wave model of light — specifically, the Maxwell theory of electromagnetic radiation — was well accepted among scientists, and experiments by Charles Glover Barkla showed that X-rays exhibited phenomena associated with electromagnetic waves, including transverse polarization and spectral lines akin to those observed in the visible wavelengths.

Tomography has been one of the pillars of radiologic diagnostics until the late 1970s, when the availability of minicomputers and of the transverse axial scanning method gradually supplanted it as the modality of CT. Transverse axial scanning was due in large part to the work of Godfrey Hounsfield and South African-born Allan McLeod Cormack.

At emission, the object was at distance d from the Sun, and moved at angular rate μ radian / s, that is, μ = v < sub > t </ sub > / d with v < sub > t </ sub > = velocity transverse to line of sight from the Sun.

However, contrary to the diffusionist theory, it appears that there was simultaneously a structural evolution towards the pointed arch, for the purpose of vaulting spaces of irregular plan, or to bring transverse vaults to the same height as diagonal vaults.

The front suspension was changed from a transverse leaf spring to McPherson struts with torsion springs and an antiroll bar.

Due to high longitudinal and transverse loads acting over the bridge and to accommodate movements between the superstructure and substructure, Oresund Bridge was equipped with bearings weighing as high as 20, 000kg per bearing, which are capable of bearing vertical loads up to 96, 000KN in longitudinal direction, and up to 40, 000KN in transverse direction.

This manoeuvre was finally noticed by Cassius who tried a countermove by moving part of his army south into the marshes and making a transverse dam, trying to cut off Antony ’ s outstretched right wing.
