The solidity of brush stroke yielded to a hatching technique that finally led to virtual abandonment of American genres in favor of single figure studies and studio nudes.

There are complications, and the technique requires careful preparation and a level of skill and experience above that required for a single anchor.

American caver Bill Cuddington, known as " Vertical Bill ", developed the single rope technique ( SRT ) in the late 1950s.

The fact that atoms and molecules are three-dimensional makes it difficult to use a single technique for indicating orbitals and bonds.

Specific industrial techniques to produce large single crystals ( called boules ) include the Czochralski process and the Bridgman technique.

In mathematics and computer science, currying is the technique of transforming a function that takes multiple arguments ( or an n-tuple of arguments ) in such a way that it can be called as a chain of functions each with a single argument ( partial application ).

In linguistics, the comparative method is a technique for studying the development of languages by performing a feature-by-feature comparison of two or more languages with common descent from a shared ancestor, as opposed to the method of internal reconstruction, which analyzes the internal development of a single language over time.

Independent of the question of single authorship is the near-universal agreement, after the work of Milman Parry, that the Homeric poems are dependent on an oral tradition, a generations-old technique that was the collective inheritance of many singer-poets ( aoidoi ).

For the rest, he spoke of a " mono-ideodynamic " principle to emphasise that the eye-fixation induction technique worked by narrowing the subject's attention to a single idea or train of thought (" monoideism "), which amplified the effect of the consequent " dominant idea " upon the subject's body by means of the ideo-dynamic principle.

Further, using a technique known as " read modified ," a single transmission back to the mainframe can contain the changes from any number of formatted fields that have been modified, but without sending any unmodified fields or static data.

Modified to a single cut rather than two, Whale uses the same technique in The Road Back to signal the instability of a returning World War I veteran.

An opposite iterated technique, counting down rather than up, is found in the Sorites paradox, where one argued that if 1, 000, 000 grains of sand formed a heap, and removing one grain from a heap left it a heap, then a single grain of sand ( or even no grains ) forms a heap.

The mandolin's paired strings facilitate this technique: the plectrum ( pick ) strikes each of a pair of strings alternately, providing a more full and continuous sound than a single string would.

In some styles ( such as fencing and some styles of Taekwondo sparring ), competitors score points based on the landing of a single technique or strike as judged by the referee, whereupon the referee will briefly stop the match, award a point, then restart the match.

* Computer module, an early packaging technique that combined several electronic components to produce a single logic element

* Multi-chip module, a modern technique that combines several complex computer chips into a single larger unit.

A single pair of active devices can be used to divide a reference by a large ratio, however, the stability of the technique is poor owing to the variability of the power supply and the circuit elements ; a division ratio of 10, for example, is easy to obtain but not dependable.

For example, propelling a canoe with a single paddle using a " j-stroke " involves a related but not identical technique.

Some diving instructors continue to teach single demand valve buddy-breathing as an obsolete but still useful technique ; then they show the method that has superseded it, since availability of two second stages per diver is now assumed in recreational scuba.

Bacterial genomes can be sequenced in a single run with several X coverage with this technique.

The second technique approximates true tatting because a single thread passes through the stitches.

UML has synthesized the notations of the Booch method, the Object-modeling technique ( OMT ) and Object-oriented software engineering ( OOSE ) by fusing them into a single, common and widely usable modeling language.

In some countries, such as Russia and Poland, a voice-over provided by a single artist is commonly used on television programs as a language localization technique, as an alternative to full dub localization.

* Cluster ( computing ), the technique of linking many computers together to act like a single computer.

Cecil Hepworth took this technique further, by printing the negative of the forwards motion backwards frame by frame, so producing a print in which the original action was exactly reversed.

The technique got to Europe almost immediately, and Segundo de Chomon and others at Pathé took it further, adding clay animation, in which sculptures were deformed from one thing into another thing frame by frame in Sculpture moderne ( 1908 ), and then Pathé made the next step to the animation of silhouette shapes.

The name " frame problem " derives from a common technique used by animated cartoon makers called framing where the currently moving parts of the cartoon are superimposed on the " frame ," which depicts the background of the scene, which does not change.

This technique capitalizes on the fact that most video sources ( such as a typical movie ) have only small changes in the image from one frame to the next.

* PICO process, a medical technique to frame and answer a clinical question

The technique depends on simultaneous or coincident detection of the pair of photons moving in approximately opposite direction ( it would be exactly opposite in their center of mass frame, but the scanner has no way to know this, and so has a built-in slight direction-error tolerance ).

This technique is not to be confused with the stop motion technique, in which the entire shot is created frame by frame.

Stop motion ( also known as stop frame ) is an animation technique to make a physically manipulated object appear to move on its own.

Morris taught himself embroidery, working with wool on a frame custom-built from an old example, and once he had mastered the technique he trained his wife Jane and her sister Bessie Burden and others to execute designs to his specifications.

However, in the T-carrier systems used in the U. S. and Canada, a technique called bit-robbing uses, in every sixth frame, the least significant bit in the time slot associated with the voice channel for Channel Associated Signaling ( CAS ).

* AVI was not intended to contain video using any compression technique which requires access to future video frame data beyond the current frame.

Generally, the technique uses a natural or synthetic ' mesh ' fabric stretched tightly across a rectangular ' frame ,' much like a stretched canvas.

Neither conflates its meaning with how the term was originally applied to film in the Cahiers de Cinéma, which was expressed in 1960 by critic Fereydoun Hoveyda as follows: " What matters in a film is the desire for order, composition, harmony, the placing of actors and objects, the movements within the frame, the capturing of a moment or look ... Mise en scene is nothing other than the technique invented by each director to express the idea and establish the specific quality of his work.

Gilbert was a skyscraper pioneer ; when designing the Woolworth Building he moved into unproven ground — though he certainly was aware of the ground-breaking work done by Chicago architects on skyscrapers and once discussed merging firms with the legendary Daniel Burnham — and his technique of cladding a steel frame became the model for decades.

Monocoque ( or ) is a construction technique that supports structural load by using an object's external skin, as opposed to using an internal frame or truss that is then covered with a non-load-bearing skin or coachwork.

The American company Kestrel USA pioneered the use of carbon fibre monocoques in bike frame manufacture in the 1980s, and since then the technique has become increasingly widely used.

Most of its series also employ are produced in the videotaped multi-camera setup that involves filming before a studio audience or utilizing a laugh track ; its multi-camera series also utilize a simulated film look ( the FilmLook image processing for series that debuted between 2003 and 2008 ; the HD-compatible ' filmizing ' technique for all newly-commissioned and returning original series produced in high definition after 2009, which reduce the videotape frame rate to 24 frames per second ).
