The connection of two cables is considered very strong. water node.

To tie it, lay the ropes to be tied with their ends towards each other so that their ends run parallel and touch each other. Holding in one hand the running and root ends of two different cables, start knitting with them oak knot, but instead of one run-out of the root end, make two.

Before finally tightening the knot, check that one pair of ends comes out of the loop from above, and the second from below, as shown in the diagram.

Rice. 22. Water knot

The water unit is simple and reliable. In the Navy, it has not found wide application, because with strong traction it drags on so much that it is very difficult to untie it.

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

The threat of space debris to the Earth's magnetic field 01.05.2024

More and more often we hear about an increase in the amount of space debris surrounding our planet. However, it is not only active satellites and spacecraft that contribute to this problem, but also debris from old missions. The growing number of satellites launched by companies like SpaceX creates not only opportunities for the development of the Internet, but also serious threats to space security. Experts are now turning their attention to the potential implications for the Earth's magnetic field. Dr. Jonathan McDowell of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics emphasizes that companies are rapidly deploying satellite constellations, and the number of satellites could grow to 100 in the next decade. The rapid development of these cosmic armadas of satellites can lead to contamination of the Earth's plasma environment with dangerous debris and a threat to the stability of the magnetosphere. Metal debris from used rockets can disrupt the ionosphere and magnetosphere. Both of these systems play a key role in protecting the atmosphere and maintaining ... >>

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

High power controller with over 90% efficiency 31.05.2009

Texas Instruments announced the release of a high-performance controller for Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices consuming 13 or 26 watts of electrical power. For example, the controller is suitable for IP phones, wireless access points and surveillance cameras.

The new integrated controller TPS23754 meets all the requirements of the IEEE 802.3at (pre-release 4.0) standard, supports DC/DC converter topologies that achieve more than 90% power conversion efficiency. These topologies reduce heat dissipation and increase system reliability.

The new single-chip PoE solution is manufactured using processes that allow surge voltages up to 100 V, which allows the development of reliable devices with a power of 13 or 26 W. TI provides samples of the TPS23754 controller, as well as the TPS23756, which supports input voltages as low as 12V. With this controller, PoE device designers can use widely available low-cost 12V network adapters.

The TPS23757 controller will also be released to support 13W and lower devices requiring higher efficiency DC/DC conversion topologies.
