Retractable bayonet. Travel Tips

Tourist tips

On sailing ships knot "retractable bayonet" found even more use than bleached. This is due to the fact that it is even more perfect and more reliable than bleached. It can also be used in cases where the direction of the cable pull is at an acute angle to the log (yard, mast, etc.) or to the cable to which it is attached.

The retractable bayonet holds even if the thrust is directed almost along the log. Unlike the bleached knot, the retractable bayonet has not two, but three hoses covering the object: one on one side of the root end and two on the other. When tying this knot, it is necessary to take into account in which direction the thrust for the root end will be directed, and depending on this, knit the knot. It is easy to remember: on which side the thrust is - there are two hoses.

Rice. 49. Retractable bayonet

Once upon a time, a retractable bayonet in the navy was used to lift spars up if the cable had to be tied in their middle. They knitted the ends of proudes when climbing the yards of fox spirits. They also tied a block with a sweater to a yard and to fox-alcohol. The ends of the embossing of the spiers were fastened with a whistle also with the help of a retractable bayonet. When the boats stood near the side of the ship on a pendant, on a backboard, or were towed, they were tied with painters to the can with the same retractable bayonet.

When using this knot in everyday life, one should not forget that, like the knotted knot, it is reliable only under load and does not like sharp weakening.

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 ... >>

A new method for converting carbon dioxide into methane 02.03.2020

Japanese scientists led by Waseda University professor Yasushi Sekine proposed to carry out a low-temperature catalytic reaction for the synthesis of hydrogen and carbon dioxide into methane using an electric field. The existing industrial process for converting carbon dioxide into methane through the catalytic reaction of hydrogen and carbon dioxide has a number of technological difficulties. In particular, the yield of methane is highly dependent on the required temperature, which should be between 300 and 400 degrees Celsius.

Scientists have proposed a new, low-temperature method (100 degrees Celsius), which produces more efficient production of methane from carbon dioxide than other similar methods.

The developed method uses the interaction of carbon dioxide with nanoparticles of cerium oxide on a ruthenium catalyst when an electric field is applied. Such a catalyst has shown high and stable catalytic activity for the conversion of carbon dioxide to methane by hydrogenation in an electric field.

Researchers claim that this method can be used to obtain methane from carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere by industry. The gas obtained in this way can not only replace fossil fuels, but also prevent global warming in the long term.

The method of producing methane using electricity consists of two stages. Through electrolysis, water decomposes into oxygen and hydrogen. The hydrogen is then mixed in the presence of a catalyst with carbon dioxide to produce methane.

The Power-to-gas technology, developed in Germany in 2008, is based on the chemical reaction of obtaining methane from carbon dioxide. The idea was to channel the excess electricity generated by power plants into gas production. Thus, it is possible not only to "storage electricity", then using gas as a fuel for power plants, but also to obtain gas for industry.
