    A partially disassembled Curta calculator, showing the digit slides and the stepped drum behind them Curta Type I calculator, top view Curta Type I calculator, bottom view. The Curta is a hand-held mechanical calculator designed by Curt Herzstark. [1] It is known for its extremely compact design: a small cylinder that fits in the palm of the hand.

  3. YCbCr - Wikipedia

    The value 235 accommodates a maximum overshoot of (255 - 235) / (235 - 16) = 9.1%, which is slightly larger than the theoretical maximum overshoot (Gibbs' Phenomenon) of about 8.9% of the maximum (black-to-white) step. The toeroom is smaller, allowing only 16 / 219 = 7.3% overshoot, which is less than the theoretical maximum overshoot of 8.9%.

    Fig. 1. HSL (a–d) and HSV (e–h). Above (a, e): cut-away 3D models of each. Below: two-dimensional plots showing two of a model's three parameters at once, holding the other constant: cylindrical shells (b, f) of constant saturation, in this case the outside surface of each cylinder; horizontal cross-sections (c, g) of constant HSL lightness or HSV value, in this case the slices halfway ...

  5. Blade element theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_element_theory

    Blade element theory (BET) is a mathematical process originally designed by William Froude (1878), [1] David W. Taylor (1893) and Stefan Drzewiecki (1885) to determine the behavior of propellers. It involves breaking a blade down into several small parts then determining the forces on each of these small blade elements.

  6. Blade element momentum theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_Element_Momentum_Theory

    Blade element momentum theory is a theory that combines both blade element theory and momentum theory. It is used to calculate the local forces on a propeller or wind-turbine blade. Blade element theory is combined with momentum theory to alleviate some of the difficulties in calculating the induced velocities at the rotor.

  7. Specific leaf area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_leaf_area

    Table 1 gives normal ranges (~10th and ~90th percentiles) for species growing in the field, for well-illuminated leaves. Aquatic plants generally have very low LMA values, with particularly low numbers reported for species such as Myriophyllum farwelli (2.8 g/m 2 ) [ 5 ] and Potamogeton perfoliatus (3.9 g/m 2 ). [ 6 ]

  8. Luma (video) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luma_(video)

    Luma alone does not perfectly represent luminance; accurate luminance requires both accurate luma and chroma. Hence, errors in chroma "bleed" into the luminance of an image. Note the bleeding in lightness near the borders. Due to the widespread usage of chroma subsampling, errors in chroma typically occur when it is lowered in resolution ...

  9. The Elder Scrolls: Blades - Wikipedia

    The game was announced by Todd Howard during Bethesda's showcase at E3 2018 [1] and was playable on the showfloor at the expo. [2] Blades was released for Android and iOS devices as a free-to-play game on March 27 2019. [1] [2] Howard anticipated that Blades would be released on consoles and PC in the future, along with supporting virtual ...
