An aeronautical chart that depicts the aeronautical data required to execute an instrument approach procedure (IAP) to an airport.

OBS

These charts depict the procedures, including all related data, and the airport diagram. Each procedure is designated for use with a specific type of electronic navigation system, including non-directional beacon (NDB), tactical air navigation aid (TACAN), VHF [very high frequence] omnidirectional range (VOR), instrument landing system (ILS)/microwave landing system (MLS), and area navigation (RNAV). These charts are identified by the type of NAVAID [navigation aid] providing final approach guidance.

OBS

instrument approach chart; IAC: term and abbreviation officially approved by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

OBS

instrument approach chart: term and definition standardized by the Glossary for Pilots and Air Traffic Services Personnel Committee.

DEF

Carte aéronautique qui représente les données aéronautiques nécessaires pour faire une procédure d'approche aux instruments (IAP) à un aéroport.

OBS

Ces cartes décrivent les procédures, y compris toutes les données connexes ainsi que le diagramme de l'aéroport. Chaque procédure est destinée à être utilisée avec un certain type de système de navigation électronique, y compris le radiophare non directionnel (NDB), le système de navigation aérienne tactique (TACAN), le radiophare omnidirectionnel VHF [très haute fréquence] (VOR), le système d'atterrissage aux instruments (ILS)/système d'atterrissage hyperfréquences (MLS) et la navigation de surface (RNAV). Ces cartes sont identifiées par le type de NAVAID [aide à la navigation] qui fournit le guidage à l'approche finale.

OBS

Subject field(s)
  • Equipment (Oil and Natural Gas Extraction)
  • Oil Drilling
DEF

A special coupling device, inserted one or two joints above the bottom of the casing string, that contains a check valve to permit fluid to pass downward but not upward through the casing.

CONT

The float collar prevents drilling mud from entering the casing while it is being lowered, allowing the casing to float during its descent and also decreasing the load on the derrick. The float collar also prevents a backflow of cement during the cementing operation.

Subject field(s)
  • Electromagnetic Radiation
DEF

An approach to solving the phase problem in protein structure determination by comparing structure factors collected at different wavelengths, including the absorption edge of a heavy-atom scatterer.

Key term(s)
  • multi-wavelength anomalous diffraction
  • multi-wavelength anomalous dispersion
  • multiple wavelength anomalous diffraction
  • M.A.D.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Rayonnements électromagnétiques
CONT

Outre [l’] expérience classique de biocristallographie, deux techniques sont développées en parallèle et sont exclusives du rayonnement synchrotron. La première est la méthode MAD (multiple-wavelength anomalous diffraction) qui consiste à exploiter la diffusion anomale d’un atome lourd inclus dans la protéine et à déterminer sa position, puis à aider au phasage, à partir de la collecte de données autour du seuil d’absorption.

Key term(s)
  • diffraction anomale multi-longueurs d'ondes
  • méthode M.A.D.
