A rupture disc (burst) Pressure-effect acting at a rupture disc A rupture disc, also known as a pressure safety disc, burst disc, bursting disc, or burst diaphragm, is a non-reclosing pressure relief safety device that, in most uses, protects a pressure vessel, equipment or system from overpressurization or potentially damaging vacuum conditions.
An explosion vent or rupture panel [1] [2] is a safety device to protect equipment or buildings against excessive internal, explosion-incurred pressures, by means of pressure relief. An explosion vent will relieve pressure from the instant its opening (or activation) pressure p stat has been exceeded.

English: Comparison of various characteristics of a Compact Disc, and single-layer Digital Versatile Disc, High-Definition/Density Digital Versatile Disc and Blu-ray Disc. Dimensions indicated are track pitch (p), pit width (w) and minimum length (l), and laser spot size (⌀) and wavelength (λ).
The flexural strength is stress at failure in bending. It is equal to or slightly larger than the failure stress in tension. Flexural strength, also known as modulus of rupture, or bend strength, or transverse rupture strength is a material property, defined as the stress in a material just before it yields in a flexure test.

A low disk loading is a direct indicator of high lift thrust efficiency. [4] Increasing the weight of a helicopter increases disk loading. For a given weight, a helicopter with shorter rotors will have higher disk loading, and will require more engine power to hover. A low disk loading improves autorotation performance in rotorcraft.

The ViewSheet file format is documented on page 128 of the supplied user guide, [2] which also contains an example BBC BASIC program to print out values from a saved spreadsheet. ViewSheet takes advantage of a second 6502 processor, which triples the amount of memory available for spreadsheets, assuming the default screen mode is used (mode 3). [2]
