In fax and voice data modes, sometimes events occur that the modem wishes to signal to the computer regardless of whether it's in command or data mode. An example of such an event is a caller pressing a touch-tone key in voice mode. Other common out-of-band messages are notifications from the modem that data was lost because the computer is ...
Andesite (/ ˈ æ n d ə z aɪ t /) [1] is a volcanic rock of intermediate composition.In a general sense, it is the intermediate type between silica-poor basalt and silica-rich rhyolite.
Hypersthene is a common rock-forming inosilicate mineral belonging to the group of orthorhombic pyroxenes. [1] Its chemical formula is (Mg,Fe)SiO 3.It is found in igneous and some metamorphic rocks as well as in stony and iron meteorites.
The andesite line is the most significant regional geologic distinction in the Pacific Ocean basin. It separates the mafic basaltic volcanic rocks of the Central Pacific Basin from the partially submerged continental areas of more felsic andesitic volcanic rock on its margins.
Alliage may refer to: Alloy (alliage in French), a mixture or metallic solid solution composed of two or more elements Alliage (band) , a French boy band from 1996 to 2000
Aluminium–lithium alloys (Al–Li alloys) are a set of alloys of aluminium and lithium, often also including copper and zirconium.Since lithium is the least dense elemental metal, these alloys are significantly less dense than aluminium.
Hornblende has a hardness of 5–6, a specific gravity of 3.0 to 3.6, and is typically an opaque green, dark green, brown, or black color. It tends to form slender prismatic to bladed crystals, diamond-shaped in cross section, or is present as irregular grains or fibrous masses.
Due to its high strength and fatigue resistance, 2024 is widely used in aircraft, especially wing and fuselage structures under tension. [6] [7] Additionally, since the material is susceptible to thermal shock, 2024 is used in the qualification of liquid penetrant tests outside of normal temperature ranges.
