Double gazebo, which has two non-tightening loops, is used instead of a gazebo for lifting a person to a height, for raising or lowering a person who has lost consciousness, and in other cases.

When tying a knot, one of the loops is made almost half the size of the other. A person sits in one loop, the second loop clasps his torso under the arms. This allows him, having risen to a height, to work with both hands.


Rice. 77. Double gazebo knot (working loop is marked with a cross)

In maritime practice, there are several ways to tie a double bower knot. Let's explain the simplest one.

The knot is tied with a rope folded in half. After inserting the running end (in the form of a loop) into the small loop of the knot, this end needs to be pulled out a little and, wrapped around the large loop, placed in the upper part of the knot. Holding the main part of the cable with one hand, pull down the right side of the large double loop with the other hand. After this, the knot will be tightened and ready for use.

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 ... >>

robot citizen 02.11.2017

Saudi Arabia became the first country to grant citizenship to a robot. Citizenship was given to the humanoid robot Sophia, created by Hanson Robotics from Hong Kong.

The venue for this unusual event was the Future Investment Initiative (FII) investor conference hosted by the Public Investment Fund (PIF).

Thanking people for granting citizenship, the robot answered the questions of the audience. Among others, there was a question about robots that threaten a person, which are shown in some science fiction films. According to Sophia, people have nothing to fear.

"You read too much Elon Musk and watch too many Hollywood movies," the source quoted the robot as saying.

Robotics is a big focus in the $500 billion NEOM Industrial and Business Zone to be set up in northwest Saudi Arabia.
