A barbette is a protective circular armour feature around a cannon or heavy artillery gun. The name comes from the French language French phrase en barbette referring to the practice of firing a field gun over a parapet defensive wall rather than through an opening embrasure . The former gives better angles of fire but less protection. For example, the Confederate defenders at the Second Battle of Fort McAllister were unable to operate their cannons because the en barbette gun emplacements provided poor protection from Union riflemen outside the fort. ref Trudeau, Noah Andre. Southern Storm Sherman s March to the Sea. New York Harper Collins, 2008 ref Before the complete introduction of the fully enclosed armoured gun turret s, a barbette was a fixed armoured enclosure protecting the gun. The barbette could take the form of a ring of armour around the gun mount over which the guns possibly fitted with a gun shield fired. In warships from the age of the dreadnought forward, the barbette is the non rotating drum beneath the rotating gun turret properly known as the gunhouse and above the armoured deck ship deck on a warship. It forms the protection for the upper ends of the hoists that lift shell projectile shells and their propelling charges e.g. cordite from the magazines below.

After finishing his medicine studies at Leiden University in 1645, he practised both medicine and surgery in Amsterdam. He was a determined enemy of bleeding in all cases, relying chiefly on sudorific s. He proposed the operation of gastrostomy in cases of intussusception of the bowels, and introduced some improvements in surgical instruments. He wrote many works, which have been frequently reprinted, and he was held as a high authority in his day.

A Battery indicator is a device which gives information about a Battery electricity battery . This will usually be a visual indication of the battery s state of charge . It is particularly important in the case of a battery electric vehicle . Automobiles File 66ChargerDash.jpg thumb 1966 Dodge Charger dashboard, note ammeter marked Alternator Some automobile s are fitted with a battery condition meter to monitor the Car battery starter battery . This meter is, essentially, a voltmeter but it may also be marked with coloured zones for easy visualisation. Many newer cars no longer offer voltmeters or ammeters instead, these vehicles typically have a light with the outline of an automotive battery on it. This can be somewhat misleading as it may be confused for an indicator of a bad battery when in reality it indicates a problem with the vehicle s charging system. Alternatively, an ammeter may be fitted. This indicates whether the battery is being charged or discharged. In the picture on the right, the ammeter is marked Alternator and the symbols are C charge and D discharge . Click on the picture to enlarge it. Both ammeter s and voltmeter s individually or together can be used to assess the operating state of an aumoobile battery and charging system. Electronic devices A battery indicator is a feature of many electronic devices. In mobile phone s, the battery indicator usually takes the form of a bar graph the more bars that are showing, the better the battery s state of charge. Computers Computers may give a signal to users that an internal standby battery needs replacement. Portable computers using rechargeable batteries gernally give the user some indication of the remaining operating time left on the battery.
