Wind engineering of a two bladed turbine when the blades are vertical. The reduced wind gradient over water means shorter and less expensive wind turbine towers can be used in shallow seas. For wind turbine engineering, wind speed variation with height is often approximated using a power law: where: The knowledge of wind engineering is used to analyze and design all high rise buildings, cable suspension bridges and cable-stayed bridges, electricity transmission towers and telecommunication towers and all other types of towers and chimneys. The wind load is the dominant load in the analysis of many tall buildings. So wind engineering is
Pontoon (card game) the rules. The computer-generated Pontoon basic strategy and house edge tables below are reproduced from "The Pro's Guide to Spanish 21 and Australian Pontoon", with permission of the author, Katarina Walker. Pontoon strategy is far more difficult than Blackjack, however, casinos do not generally object to people using strategy charts at the table. Pontoon strategy is very similar to Spanish 21 strategy, but there are some crucial differences, mainly due to the no-hole-card rule, and the limitations on soft doubling. Pontoon does, on average, have a lower house edge than its American counterparts because of the no-hole-card rule, which means
