Mountain guide Alice Manfield with a long wooden walking pole in the early 1900s. When in use, modern trekking poles resemble ski poles as they have many features in common, such as baskets at the bottom to prevent the pole sinking through unstable surfaces, and rubber-padded handles and wrist straps to strengthen holding grip.
FLZ or Flz can refer to: Ferdinand Lumban Tobing Airport, an airport in Sibolga, Indonesia, by IATA code; Flightlink, a regional airline based in Tanzania, by ICAO code; Flutter-tonguing, a musical technique often denoted by "Flz." WFLZ-FM, a radio station in Tampa, Florida, U.S. branded as "93.3 FLZ"
Flutter-tonguing is a wind instrument tonguing technique in which performers flutter their tongue to make a characteristic "FrrrrrFrrrrr" sound. The effect varies according to the instrument and at what volume it is played, ranging from cooing sounds on a recorder to an effect similar to the growls used by jazz musicians.
The term Right Ascension took its name from early northern hemisphere observers for whom "ascending stars" were on the east or right hand side. In the southern hemisphere the east is on the left when an equatorial mount is aligned on the south pole. Many Right Ascension setting circles therefore carry two sets of numbers, one showing the value ...
Exterior surfaces were four inches (10 cm) thick, with an aluminum interior surface, and a plywood exterior surface, sandwiching fiberglass. Skylights were the only windows in flat uniform roof levels, while buildings were connected by a burlap and chicken wire covered tunnel system. The last of the construction crew departed on January 4, 1957.
A popular window function, the Hann window.Most popular window functions are similar bell-shaped curves. In signal processing and statistics, a window function (also known as an apodization function or tapering function [1]) is a mathematical function that is zero-valued outside of some chosen interval.
Because electrolytically zinc-plated surfaces provide comparatively little corrosion protection, and in the case of galvanic zinc coatings on high-strength steel (e.g. category 10.9 and 12.9 high-strength bolts) there is a risk of hydrogen embrittlement, the industry needed a better corrosion protection system.
that is, the sum of the angles from the open-loop zeros to the point (measured per zero w.r.t. a horizontal running through that zero) minus the angles from the open-loop poles to the point (measured per pole w.r.t. a horizontal running through that pole) has to be equal to , or 180 degrees.
