A cutback is a surfing maneuver with which you change your direction on the rail by going back to the breaking part of the wave. See, when you’re at full speed, there's a big chance that you’re getting away from the breaking wave and heading towards the flat spots of the shoulder that don’t have the intrinsic power to carry you. So, you’ll lose speed, and you’ll need to get back to the wave to gain as much speed as you can. That's when you should perform a cutback. In that sense, a cutback isn’t only an aesthetic move, as it gets you back to the power source of the wave : its curl.  2, record 2, English, - cutback

... the big bang does not fit all astronomers’ observations. The distribution of matter across space is too uniform to have come from the Big Bang as originally conceived. So in the 1970s, cosmologists postulated a sudden enlargement of the universe, called inflation, that occurred in the first minuscule fraction of a second after the Big Bang... Only inflation can amplify the primordial gravitational wave signal enough to make it detectable.

In the applications of the secondary explosive one always requires the use of a detonator and in some cases also a booster in order that detonation may be produced easily and reliably. A booster is usually a small, pressed, cast, or low density(loose-packed) charge of one of the more sensitive secondary explosives capable of being detonated readily by a detonator. It is used to reinforce the detonation wave from the detonator and thus deliver to the secondary explosive a more powerful detonation wave than is possible with a detonator alone. This makes possible the use of many relatively insensitive explosives that otherwise would have no direct application.  2, record 11, English, - booster

Subatomic particles have various properties and are affected by certain forces that exhibit symmetry. An important property that gives rise to a conservation law is parity. In quantum mechanics all elementary particles and atoms may be described in terms of a wave equation. If this wave equation remains identical after simultaneous reflection of all spatial coordinates of the particle through the origin of the coordinate system, then it is said to have even parity. If such simultaneous reflection results in a wave equation that differs from the original wave equation only in sign, then the particle is said to have odd parity. The overall parity of a collection of particles, such as a molecule, is found to be unchanged with time during physical processes and reactions; this fact is expressed as the law of conservation of parity.  2, record 21, English, - law%20of%20conservation%20of%20parity

An analytical solution is one that can be explicitly written down, also called a closed form solution. Analytical solutions can not be found for many partial differential and ordinary differential equations(most in fact). In the case when an analytical solution has not been found yet, numerical methods may be applied to get an approximate solution. For instance a well known equation with an analytical solution is the wave equation. On the other hand, a well known equation that doesn’t have an analytical solution is the Navier-Stokes equation.  3, record 22, English, - analytical%20solution

Various methods have been proposed to implement a digital-to-analog converter(DAC). One such method is to create a pulse train whose average value is equal to the magnitude of the digital input and then average the pulse train by passing it through a low-pass filter. Conventionally, pulse wave modulators(PWM) are used to create the pulse train from a digital input signal. However, the quality of the analog signal that results from the filtered pulse train may contain considerable noise unless an expensive low-pass filter is constructed.  1, record 29, English, - pulse%20wave%20modulator

Multi-scale composite models based on the Bragg theory are widely used to study the normalized radar cross-section(NRCS) over the sea surface.

We have developed a physical model that takes into account, not only the Bragg mechanism, but also the non-Bragg scattering mechanism associated with wave breaking.... Models of the normalized radar cross-section of the sea-surface(NRCS) at intermediate incidence angles are usually treated as a composite models describing the combined effects of Bragg scattering mechanism(effective for surface ocean waves whose wavelengths are of the order of the electromagnetic wave) and local-titling effects due to longer underlying waves(Plant, 1986, Donelan and Pierson, 1987, Romeiser et al., 1994, Romeiser et Alpers, 1997, Janssen et al., 1998).  3, record 34, English, - Bragg%20scattering%20mechanism

... Charnock's formula for the atmospheric side makes physically much more sense than for the ocean side. For the atmosphere, one can imagine a wind blowing over roughness elements somehow related to the wave height. This is not quite correct, because waves are constantly moving and changing their shape, but it yields reasonable results. For the ocean side, however, you have breaking waves injecting turbulence into the ocean. So the length-scale of turbulence near the surface is more likely connected to the turbulence spectrum caused by the breaking events, rather than to the wave height. This implies that Charnock's formula lacks a clear physical interpretation. People use it mainly for the lack of better models.  1, record 37, English, - Charnock%27s%20formula

The combined definition was produced by a sea description followed by a swell description.

Avec leur progressive disparition dans les années à venir, s'effaceront aussi les derniers témoignages vivants des multiples cultures paysannes desquelles les Italo-Canadiens sont majoritairement issus. L'exposition proposera au visiteur un nouveau regard sur ces cultures trop souvent reléguées à un passé révolu.»  1, record 39, French, - Presenza%20%2D%20Nouveau%20regard%20sur%20l%27h%C3%A9ritage%20italo%2Dcanadien

Atmos was to have been launched in the mid-1990's with four major Earth observation systems : the Advanced Millimeter Wave Atmospheric Sounder(AMAS), the Michelson Interferometer for Passive Sounding(MIPAS), the Scanning Imaging Absorption Spectrometer for Atmospheric Cartography(SCIAMACHY), and the Reflective Optics Imaging Spectrometer(ROSIS). The first three devices were designed to analyze atmospheric chemistry, whereas the objective of ROSIS was to return moderate and high resolution, multispectral photographs of the Earth's surface.  2, record 41, English, - advanced%20millimetric%20wave%20atmospheric%20sounder

Theoretical studies have shown the potential scientific value of multi-spacecraft radio tomographic imaging of the magnetosphere. The <10 RE WIND perigee passes during August 2000 afforded a unique opportunity to test and verify the capabilities of radio tomography by measuring interspacecraft electromagnetic wave propagation parameters using the Radio Plasma Imager(RPI) on IMAGE as the transmitter and the WAVES instrument on WIND as the receiver.... We show how changes in the path-integrated electron density/magnetic field product can be unambiguously measured from this continuous, low signal to noise ratio, single frequency measurement.  2, record 42, English, - single%20frequency%20measurement

Previous studies of the Sun have only been done in the Ecliptic, and are thus a small glimpse of the dynamic solar environment. Although it will get no closer to the Sun than it was the day it was launched, the Ulysses spacecraft will provide a unique opportunity to explore the Heliosphere in total. It carries a 55 kg(121 lbm) instrument payload to collect data on the solar magnetic field, solar radiation such as radio and plasma waves and X-rays, and the solar wind, as well as cosmic radiation and dust entering the solar system.

Waves are formed due to the friction of the wind over the water surface. The three main components for wave generation are the wind speed, it's duration and fetch.... How to recognise a swell/wave generating area. On a weather chart there are high and low pressure systems. They are separated by isobars(lines joining places of equal pressure). Buys Ballot's law states :"If you stand with your back to the wind in the northern hemisphere, the low pressure will be on your left. "From this you can deduce the wind flows anticlockwise around a low pressure system and almost parallel to the isobars. The wind near the surface actually flows at an angle of about 15 degrees to the isobars pointing in to the low. The reason for this is that friction with the surface slows the air down and it is this friction which causes waves to form. Assuming you have identified an area of closely packed isobars which are almost straight for 200 miles and the low system is not changing to quickly, you have found a good swell generating area.  3, record 46, English, - wave%20generation%20area

[A] mobile jack-up platform... consists basically of a dumb barge which can raise itself out of the water on legs to well above storm wave height, and upon which is mounted a drilling rig. Some of the hulls are roughly triangular in plan and have three legs, but most are matchbox-shaped and have four or six legs... The jack-up barge is towed to location, the legs are dropped or jacked down to the sea bed, and then the hull is raised out of the water some 50 to 60 ft.  2, record 47, English, - leg

Seam Testing Methods... There are number of procedures available which have applicability on different geomembranes... the ultrasonic impedance plane method works on the principle of acoustic impedance. A continuous wave of 160 to 185 kHz is sent through the seamed liner and a characteristic dot pattern is displayed on a CRT screen. Calibration of the dot pattern is required to signify a good seam; otherwise, it is not. The method has potential for all types of geomembranes but still needs additional development work.  1, record 48, English, - ultrasonic%20impedance%20plane%20method
