A complete number is referred to as a European Vehicle Number [3] and comprises 12 digits as originally outlined in UIC Code of Practice 438-3, Identification marking for tractive stock. Digits 1–2 are the type code, 3–4 the country of origin (where the vehicle is registered), 5–11 are defined by the country concerned, 12 is the check ...
From the introduction of TOPS in 1973, all British Rail diesel and electric locomotives and multiple units were allocated to a particular traction maintenance depot or TMD. . Drawing from the terminology of steam traction, these depots were generally referred to as "sheds", and indeed most locations were those which had possessed depots for steam loc
SMPTE timecode signal (A logic value 1 is expressed by a transition at the midpoint of a period. A logic value 0 is expressed by the absence of such a transition.) compared to the outwardly-similar Manchester code (A logic value 0 is expressed by a high-to-low transition, a logic value 1 by low-to-high transition at the midpoint of a period).
Traction can also refer to the maximum tractive force between a body and a surface, as limited by available friction; when this is the case, traction is often expressed as the ratio of the maximum tractive force to the normal force and is termed the coefficient of traction (similar to coefficient of friction).
A timecode (alternatively, time code) is a sequence of numeric codes generated at regular intervals by a timing synchronization system. Timecode is used in video production , show control and other applications which require temporal coordination or logging of recording or actions.
Bournemouth Traincare Depot is a traction maintenance depot located in Bournemouth, South West England. The depot is situated on a spur off the South West Main Line and is to the east of Branksome station. [2] The depot code is BM.
This converts 30 frame/second time code to the 29.97 frame/second NTSC standard. Bit 15, the color framing bit, is set to 1 if the time code is synchronized to a (color) video signal. The frame number modulo 2 (for NTSC and SECAM ) or modulo 4 (for PAL ) should be preserved across cuts in order to avoid phase jumps in the chrominance subcarrier .
