The primary advantages of a pistol caliber carbine are increased accuracy due to the buttstock and longer barrel ( and with it, sight radius ), relatively low muzzle blast / flash / recoil, higher muzzle velocity and energy of a longer barrel for increased wounding potential and penetration ( depending on the particular load used ), and ( sometimes, but not always ) greater adaptability for easily accepting accessories such as optics, weaponlights, and lasers.

As rifling became commonplace, the accuracy and destructive power of cannon was significantly increased, and they became deadlier than ever, both to infantry who belatedly had to adopt different tactics, and to ships, which had to be armoured.

Even though Haeckel's program in comparative embryology virtually collapsed after the First World War, his embryo drawings have often been reproduced and redrawn with increased precision and accuracy in works that have kept the study of comparative embryology alive.

The Rader-Brenner algorithm ( 1976 ) is a Cooley – Tukey-like factorization but with purely imaginary twiddle factors, reducing multiplications at the cost of increased additions and reduced numerical stability ; it was later superseded by the split-radix variant of Cooley – Tukey ( which achieves the same multiplication count but with fewer additions and without sacrificing accuracy ).

" That same year the concept was pursued as Project 621B, which had " many of the attributes that you now see in GPS " and promised increased accuracy for Air Force bombers as well as ICBMs.

Over the last decade, the U. S. has implemented several improvements to the GPS service, including new signals for civil use and increased accuracy and integrity for all users, all while maintaining compatibility with existing GPS equipment.

Each size has merits and shortcomings ; a smaller handgun usually sacrifices ammunition capacity, recoil damping and / or long-range accuracy for increased concealability and ease of use by smaller-framed shooters.

Economy, increased accuracy, performance and hobby are common motivations for handloading cartridges.

The handloading process can realize increased accuracy and precision through improved consistency of manufacture, by selecting the optimal bullet weight and design, and tailoring bullet velocity to the purpose.

This is an extra operation and is not needed unless a gun's magazine or action design requires crimped ammunition for safe operation, such as autoloading firearms, where the cycling of the action may push the bullet back in the case, resulting in poor accuracy and increased pressures.

A good example of where this is useful is for shooters of older military surplus firearms, which often exhibit widely varying bore and groove diameters ; by making bullets specifically intended for the firearm in question, accuracy of the resulting cartridges can be significantly increased.

HK also developed modern polygonal rifling, noted for its high accuracy, increased muzzle velocity and barrel life.

Modern ICBMs tend to be smaller than their ancestors, due to increased accuracy and smaller and lighter warheads, and use solid fuels, making them less useful as orbital launch vehicles.

Rieu for increased literal accuracy )

Bismarck spent his final years composing his memoirs ( Gedanken und Erinnerungen, or Thoughts and Memories ), a work of literary genius but questionable accuracy, in which he increased the drama around every event and always presented himself favorably.

The introduction of the pendulum, the first harmonic oscillator used in timekeeping, increased the accuracy of clocks enormously, from about 15 minutes per day to 15 seconds per day < ref >

Barrel rifling dramatically increased the range and accuracy of the musket.

The potential reduction in accuracy in aimed fire is offset by the increased capability for concealment.

Range is said to be increased with this method, sacrificing accuracy.

Theories are improved ( or replaced by better theories ) as more evidence is gathered, so that accuracy in prediction improves over time ; this increased accuracy corresponds to an increase in scientific knowledge.

While the earliest groups had little claim for historical accuracy, the seriousness and accuracy of re-enactors has increased.

The accuracy of the measured value of G has increased only modestly since the original Cavendish experiment.

The term is often used synonymously with the term antibiotic ( s ); today, however, with increased knowledge of the causative agents of various infectious diseases, antibiotic ( s ) has come to denote a broader range of antimicrobial compounds, including anti-fungal and other compounds.

Commercial advertisers often seek to generate increased consumption of their products or services through " branding ," which involves the repetition of an image or product name in an effort to associate certain qualities with the brand in the minds of consumers.

Withdrawal-related psychosis from antipsychotics is called " supersensitivity psychosis ", and is attributed to increased number and sensitivity of brain dopamine receptors, due to blockade of dopaminergic receptors by the antipsychotics, which often leads to exacerbated symptoms in the absence of neuroleptic medication.

Political polarization increased, and large mobilizations of both pro-and anti-government groups became frequent, often leading to clashes.

By quickly setting up for the next play ( often within 5 – 10 seconds after the last play despite being afforded 45 seconds ) this hindered the other team's defense from substituting situational players, regrouping for tactics, and, some suggest, increased the defense's rate of fatigue ( This is attributed to the belief that the offense dictates when a play starts so they tend to be more mentally relaxed and prepared for the start of a play where the defense must remain on a higher level of alert before the play starts ).

If one set is played, the pieces usually go into the opponent's starting corner, and the number of pieces per side is often increased to 15 ( instead of the usual 10 ).

The war in Afghanistan, often referred to as the Soviet Union's " Vietnam War ", led to increased public dissatisfaction with the Communist regime.

However, the rapid growth of the world's population and its increased concentration often in hazardous environments has escalated both the frequency and severity of natural disasters.

Some libertarians in the U. S. object to vouchers on the grounds that granting government money, even indirectly, to private and religious schools will inevitably lead to increased governmental control over non-government education, and possibly over the teachings of the sponsoring religious group ( most often a church ).

The interaction of hormone and receptor typically triggers a cascade of secondary effects within the cytoplasm of the cell, often involving phosphorylation or dephosphorylation of various other cytoplasmic proteins, changes in ion channel permeability, or increased concentrations of intracellular molecules that may act as secondary messengers ( e. g., cyclic AMP ).

Major clinical signs include weight loss ( often accompanied by an increased appetite ), anxiety, intolerance to heat, hair loss, muscle aches, weakness, fatigue, hyperactivity, irritability, hypoglycemia, apathy, polyuria, polydipsia, delirium, tremor, pretibial myxedema, and sweating.

If the hydrofoils hit something the boat will fall off the foils and this often creates a perception of increased danger.

It was the erosion of this tradition coupled with increased brutality and centralization that played a large part in the dynasty's downfall after Aurangzeb, who unlike previous emperors, imposed relatively non-pluralistic policies on the general population, which often inflamed the majority Hindu population.

The purpose of the non-controlled drugs in combination is often twofold: 1 ) To provide increased analgesia via drug synergy.

Ordinary working people found increased opportunities for employment in the new mills and factories, but these were often under strict working conditions with long hours of labour dominated by a pace set by machines.

This decline ( in aerobic capacity ) is most likely a consequence of the sedentary lifestyle that is often associated with the symptoms of IBM ( i. e. progressive muscle weakness, decreased mobility, and increased level of fatigue ).
