  2. 8.4 cm Feldgeschütz Ord 1879 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8.4_cm_Feldgeschütz_Ord_1879

    The 8.4 cm Feldgeschütz Ord 1879 was able to use the ammunition, or rather the shot, which had been made for the preceding 8.4 cm Feldkanone Ord 1871. [1] Initially the ammunition was loaded separately. After the adoption of the grenade, the powder charge was loaded by means of a bag made of damp proof silken material.

    In the winter and spring of 1870/1871, the two prototypes were tested against each other and against the existing Swiss 8,45 cm (4-pounder RML) and 10 cm guns. [1] The superiority of the 8,4 cm prototype was clear at distances over 2,000 m. [6] The 84 mm had an advantage over the 80 mm that could not be derived directly from the caliber.

    (4 4/3 ∞), (3/2 3 ∞), (6 6/5 ∞), (3 3/2 ∞). Branko Grünbaum and G. C. Shephard , in the 1987 book Tilings and patterns , section 12.3, enumerate a list of 25 uniform tilings, including the 11 convex forms, and add 14 more they call hollow tilings , using the first two expansions above: star polygon faces and generalized vertex figures.

    The antenna system consists of a 1.2 m parabolic primary and 17.8 cm hyperbolic secondary in a Cassegrain configuration with effective f/D=2.8. The antenna primary is a monolithic aluminum casting with f/D=0.375, numerically milled by Philco Ford to 40 μm surface accuracy (l/65 at 115 GHz). The telescope's focus, beam pattern, and main ...

    The {7/2} and {7/3} star polygons also have occult significance, particularly in the Kabbalah and in Wicca. The {8/3} star polygon ( octagram ) is a frequent geometrical motif in Mughal Islamic art and architecture ; the first is on the emblem of Azerbaijan .

    For example: 3 6; 3 6; 3 4.6, tells us there are 3 vertices with 2 different vertex types, so this tiling would be classed as a ‘3-uniform (2-vertex types)’ tiling. Broken down, 3 6 ; 3 6 (both of different transitivity class), or (3 6 ) 2 , tells us that there are 2 vertices (denoted by the superscript 2), each with 6 equilateral 3-sided ...
