    Otherwise, repeat the whole process starting from step 1 to step 5. The same principle applies for a bulls-eye level: Bring the level parallel to any two of the foot screws, by rotating the upper part of the instrument. The bubble is brought to the centre of the level tube by rotating both the foot screws either inward or outward.

  3. Standard step method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Step_Method

    In the mild reach, the hydraulic jump occurs downstream of the gate, but in the steep reach, the hydraulic jump occurs upstream of the gate. It is important to note that the gradually varied flow equations and associated numerical methods (including the standard step method) cannot accurately model the dynamics of a hydraulic jump. [6]

    Horizontal axis adjustment. The horizontal axis must be perpendicular to the vertical axis. Vertical circle index adjustment. The vertical circle must read zero when the line of collimation is horizontal. Adjustment of altitude level. The axis of altitude level must be parallel to the line of collimation. Collimation adjustment.

  5. Door breaching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Door_breaching

    Door breaching is a process used by military, police, or emergency services to force open closed or locked doors. A wide range of methods are available depending on the door's opening direction (inward or outward), construction materials, etc., and one or more of these methods may be used in any given situation.

  6. Storm door - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storm_door

    There are three basic types of storm doors: full-view, retractable screen, and ventilating. Full-view storm doors [1] typically include a full glass panel and most an interchangeable full screen. Retractable screen storm doors feature a screen that is rolled up into the frame of the storm door when not in use, and can be removed entirely.

  7. Door closer - Wikipedia

    Modern manual door closer Eclipse door spring and separate checking mechanism. A door closer is a mechanical device that regulates the speed and action of a door’s swing. [1] Manual closers store the force used to open the door in some type of spring and reuse it to close the door. Automatic types use electricity to regulate door swing behavior.

  8. Journal of Hydraulic Engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journal_of_Hydraulic...

    The Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, formerly the Journal of the Hydraulics Division (1956–1982), [1] is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the American Society of Civil Engineers. Topics range from flows in closed conduits to free-surface flows (canals, rivers, lakes, and estuaries) to environmental fluid dynamics.

  9. Screen-door effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen-door_effect

    The screen-door effect (SDE) is a visual artifact of displays, where the fine lines separating pixels (or subpixels) become visible in the displayed image. This effect can be seen in digital projector images and regular displays under magnification or at close range, but the increases in display resolutions have made this much less significant.
