Orphan date February 2011 An archipelagic apron for a fan shaped gently sloping region of sea floor found around oceanic islands, particularly in the south Pacific Ocean . The name was first proposed by Henry William Menard in 1956 because of the resemblance of the slope to an apron. While most such underwater sedimentary surfaces are generally smooth, some are rough in texture. The total volume occupied by an archipelagic apron is often many times that of the adjacent island. Hence, it is unlikely to have formed from sediments washed off the part of the island above sea level. ref name hill1963 ref name menard1956 Instead, archipelagic aprons most likely formed from debris avalanches and Pyroclastic rock pyroclastic flows . The material is then reworked by turbidity current s to achieve their current form.

T stage s are the small compressor stages, featured on some turbofan engines, that are mounted on the low pressure LP shaft directly behind the fan. Although T stages usually only Supercharger supercharge the core stream, some engines do feature a deliberately oversized intermediate pressure IP compressor, which compresses both the core flow and a proportion of the bypass flow. This enhances the stability of the T stages during throttling. Where necessary, the alternative is to employ blow off valves. T stages are used to increase overall pressure ratio and, for a given core size, the core mass flow. This is demonstrated by the following relationship math w 2 w 2 sqrt T 3 P 3 P 3 P 2 sqrt T 2 T 3 P 2 sqrt T 2 , math where core mass flow math w 2 , math core size math w 2 sqrt T 3 P 3 , math core total head pressure ratio math P 3 P 2 , math inverse of core total head temperature ratio math T 2 T 3 , math i.e. f math P 3 P 2 , math core entry total pressure math P 2 , math core entry total temperature math T 2 , math Note in this case, the core refers to the whole of the gas generator compression, not just that of the high pressure HP compressor. T stages are a popular method for uprating the thrust of an engine see, for example the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW500 . The alternative is to place a zero stage , mounted on the HP shaft, at the front of the HP compressor. This approach requires a significant change in the HP turbine, whereas a T stage can, if necessary, be accommodated by simply adding an additional stage to the rear of the LP turbine.

About the form of theatrical staging the theatre company and building in Houston, Texas Alley Theatre Unreferenced date December 2009 A traverse stage is a form of theatrical stage theatre stage in which the audience is predominantly on two sides of the stage, facing towards each other.They can see using Proscenium arc , named after the mirrors used in Proscenium staging see Proscenium staging . The stage is also commonly known as an alley or corridor stage . In some traverse stages, one end of the stage space may also end in audience, making it similar to a thrust stage thrust or three quarter round stage. Other times, the ends of the stage are much larger than the traverse stage itself allowing for more space for actor s, set construction sets , and scenery. Although not commonly used for the production of Play theatre plays , this form of staging is especially popular for fashion show s. There are many practical implications for the actor performing on a traverse stage, such as the need for greater projection of voice when the actor faces one audience, he turns his back to the other and to make sure that every action is visible to both sides of the audience. From a design perspective, staging is very limited so as not to block sight lines across the stage. Furthermore, stage lighting lighting the stage from one side only will cast a shadow over the actors faces when viewed from the opposite side. An advantage of this style of staging is that it is intimate staging and allows the actors to use the audience for effect. e While not strictly a traverse stage, the hanamichi of a kabuki stage, which is basically a wide catwalk that extended outward from the main stage to the rear, can be compared to one.
