In these versions, when Ajax came to the Capharean Rocks on the coast of Euboea, his ship was wrecked in a fierce storm, he himself was lifted up in a whirlwind and impaled with a flash of rapid fire from Athena in his chest, and his body thrust upon sharp rocks, which afterwards were called the rocks of Ajax.

The book of Jeremiah depicts a remarkably introspective prophet, a prophet who was impetuous and often angered by the role into which he has been thrust.

Its main thrust was towards Shkodra, with secondary operations in the Novi Pazar area.

However, a good sword blow arriving in exactly perpendicular angle to the surface could cut through the links ; when the mail was not riveted, a well placed thrust from a spear or thin sword could penetrate, and a pollaxe or halberd blow could break through the armour.

Their clothing was found in the creek, some of it twisted around sticks that had been thrust into the muddy ditch bed.

Designed by Ken and Lew Norris, the Bluebird K7 was an all-metal jet-propelled 3-point hydroplane with a Metropolitan-Vickers Beryl jet engine producing of thrust.

Bluebird K7 was fitted with a lighter and more powerful Bristol Orpheus engine, taken from a Folland Gnat jet aircraft, which developed of thrust.

Although opinions differ as to his character there is no dispute over his great achievements: he helped to save the Habsburg Empire from French conquest ; he broke the westward thrust of the Ottomans, liberating central Europe after a century and a half of Turkish occupation ; and he was one of the great patrons of the arts whose building legacy can still be seen in Vienna today.

The Northridge earthquake was associated with movement on a blind thrust within such a zone.

While largely left out of the thrust for increasing rights of citizens, as the question was left indeterminate in the Declaration of the Rights of Man, activists such as Pauline Léon and Théroigne de Méricourt agitated for full citizenship for women.

This very short xiphos would be very advantageous in the press that occurred when two lines of hoplites met, capable of being thrust through gaps in the shieldwall into an enemy's unprotected groin or throat, while there was no room to swing a longer sword.

The goal was to break through the lines of the U. S. 7th Army and French 1st Army to support the southern thrust in the Ardennes offensive, the final major German offensive of the war.

A second German force was sent into Belgium and the Netherlands to act as a diversion to this main thrust.

This was the standard form of carrying the sword for centuries, and would eventually be displaced by the katana style where the blade was worn thrust through the belt, edge up.

It was the capital of Pakistan until Islamabad was constructed as a forward thrust capital in order to spread development much more evenly across the country and to prevent it from just being concentrated in Karachi.

The thrust of the book was against the pro-war position taken by the European social democratic parties, primarily the German party.

The keel was a flattened plank about twice as thick as a normal strake plank, but not considered strong enough to withstand the downwards thrust of a mast.

" Everything objective, extended, active, and hence everything material, is regarded by materialism as so solid a basis for its explanations that a reduction to this ( especially if it should ultimately result in thrust and counter-thrust ) can leave nothing to be desired.

Typically, the acceleration of a rocket increases with time ( if the thrust stays the same ) as the weight of the rocket decreases as propellant is burned, but the thrust can be throttled to offset or vary this if needed.

* Circular Bore: if in BATES configuration, produces progressive-regressive thrust curve.

Higher exhaust velocity has both benefit and tradeoff, increasing propellant usage efficiency ( more momentum per unit mass of propellant expelled ) but decreasing thrust and the current rate of spacecraft acceleration if available input power is constant ( less momentum per unit of energy given to propellant ).

The power per thrust required for a perfectly collimated output beam is 300 MW / N ( half this if it can be reflected off the craft ); very high energy density power sources would be required to provide reasonable thrust without unreasonable weight.

In the solar system, if the exhaust velocity of the ramjet exceeds 500 km / s there will be a net thrust that will accelerate the ramjet.

If the area is too small, efficiency is poor, and if the area is large, the propeller must rotate at a very low speed to avoid going supersonic and creating a lot of noise, and not much thrust.

It required a strong arm and wrist, was very slow to recover if the initial thrust missed its mark, and was easily parried by a soldier who was trained to expect it, thus exposing the German soldier to a return thrust which he could not easily block or parry.

When the way is free, thrust forward ; when the way is obstructed, stick ( cling ); if receiving greater force, yield or give way ; and when the opponent withdraws, retreats or lowers his defense – go forward.

This thin lithosphere may preferentially fail along gently dipping thrust surface if a compressional stress is applied to the region.

The monument was arranged around an inner space, in which visitors could stand, the repeatedly fractured and highly angular memorial rose up on three sides as if thrust up from or rammed into the earth.

The exhaust, a high-temperature mix of gases, has an effectively random momentum distribution, and if it is allowed to escape in that form, only a small part of the flow will be moving in the correct direction to contribute to forward thrust.

Produced by Ashley Howe, Abominog ( 1982 ) album ( according to Blows ) was " important … in the way it pulled Heep out of the Seventies and thrust them into the Eighties with determination muscle ", even if sounded a bit too American.

The thrust of Glaucon ’ s challenge is that no one would be just if he could escape the retribution he would normally encounter for fulfilling his desires at whim.

However, this relation does not hold in the general case: if, for instance, a constant, unidirectional acceleration is reversed after ( t < sub > 1 </ sub > − t < sub > 0 </ sub >)/ 2 then the velocity difference is t < sub > 1 </ sub > − t < sub > 0 </ sub > = 0, but delta-v is the same as for the non-reversed thrust.

Their thrust is actually inversely proportional to Isp if power going into exhaust is constant or at its limit from heat dissipation needs or other engineering constraints ).

The guy was not only still looking at me but he thrust his head forward as if to say, ' Yes, I'm still looking at you.

The high pressure gas mixture created by the rapid decomposition of hydrogen peroxide could not only be used in a turbine, but if simply directed out of a nozzle, created considerable thrust.

In a similar vein, the earliest sections of the Doctrine and Covenants contain statements such as " if ye have desires to serve God ye are called to the work " ( LDS D & C 4: 3 ) and " whosoever will thrust in his sickle and reap, the same is called of God " ( LDS D & C 6: 4 ).

For example if the relative speed between the water and the leg is twice as high on the thrust phase than on the recovery phase, the thrust is four times as high as the drag.
