  2. Dicker-rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dicker-rod

    The device features a rod approximately 3 yards (9.0 ft; 2.7 m) in length. [4] [2] [a] Initially, the rod is positioned horizontally by its operator, and a marker attached to the rod is positioned to indicate the ball's position from the nearest five-yard marker (that is, the 5, 10, 15, 20, etc. yard lines).

    The New York Giants running back broke open a 43-yard run just before the two-minute warning at Huntington Bank Field, which he could have easily taken into the end zone for a touchdown.

  4. Spacer patterning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacer_patterning

    Spacers which define conducting features need to be cut to avoid forming loops. In the alternative spacer-is-dielectric (SID) approach, the spacers define dielectric spaces between conducting features, and so no longer need cuts. The mandrel definition becomes more strategic in the layout, and there is no longer a preference for 1D line-like ...

  5. Freeboard (nautical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeboard_(nautical)

    In sailing and boating, a vessel's freeboard is the distance from the waterline to the upper deck level, measured at the lowest point of sheer where water can enter the boat or ship. [1] In commercial vessels, the latter criterion measured relative to the ship's load line , regardless of deck arrangements, is the mandated and regulated meaning.

  6. Composite lumber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_lumber

    Composite deck boards are sold in either grooved or solid sided versions. The grooved composite board is fastened with hidden deck fasteners or clips, while the solid board is typically face-screwed. Most composite deck board manufacturers produce lengths of 12, 16, or 20 feet (3.7, 4.9, or 6.1 m), 5 + 1 ⁄ 2 by 3 ⁄ 4 inch (140 mm × 19 mm).

  7. Spacers and standoffs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacers_and_standoffs

    Spacers can vary in size from microns to centimeters. They can be made of metal, plastic, glass, and other materials. Shapes include flat sheet, cylindrical and spherical. Two sizes of metal standoffs and one plastic standoff. The background depicts a standoff in use, holding a circuit board above a metal case.

  8. Flow separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_separation

    Airflow separating from a wing at a high angle of attack. In fluid dynamics, flow separation or boundary layer separation is the detachment of a boundary layer from a surface into a wake. [1] A boundary layer exists whenever there is relative movement between a fluid and a solid surface with viscous forces present in the layer of fluid close to ...

  9. Caster board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caster_board

    Riding a caster board requires using a twisting motion of hips and legs. A rider or "caster boarder" gains speed because each wheel is mounted on a 30° slant on the bottom of each deck. When each deck is pushed to the side, it causes the board to be pushed upward by the wheels' rotation against the gradient of the mounts.
