Rudder, английский
- A vertical plate or board for steering a boat.
- Руль `направления
- A steering device which can be placed aft, externally relative to the keel or compounded into the keel either independently or as part of the bulb/centerboard.
- Руль
- Перо руля
- A vertical blade attached to the bottom of the hull which is used to steer the boat.
- Руль, перо руля
- The appendage attached by pintles and braces to the stern-post of a vessel, by which its course through the water is governed. it is formed of several pieces of timber, of which the main one is generally of oak, extending the whole length. tiphys is said to have been its inventor. the anglo-saxon name was steor-roper.
- A vertical underwater plate or blade with a long shank, forming part of the steering mechanism of a boat or ship. it is usually fastened outside the hull at or near the stern, hinged at its forward edge to the rudder post. the device operates on the principle of unequal pressures, forcing the stern to turn or yaw in one direction by diverting the flow of water in the opposite direction. research in the early 1980s showed it feasible to use rudder(s) for roll damping, while simultaneously controlling the ship’s heading. the voith-schneider drive eliminates the need for a rudder by combining propulsion and steering systems. (from the anglo-saxon roth or = turning oar.)
- On an aeroplane, the rudder is a control surface usually on the trailing edge of the vertical stabilizer or fin. the rudder is used to control yaw.
- Avertical plate for steering a boat.

Rudder stock, английский
- Баллер руля, рудерпис
- Баллер
- The shank of a rudder that extends through the hull to the steering engine. ruffles & flourishes: ruffles are the low continuous vibration of one or more drums, played simultaneously with flourishes, which are fanfares played by bugle or other brass instrument (the sound of a single flourish is roughly “dum-ditti-dum-ditti-daah”). these were originally a british tradition which is now seldom observed but continues in the u.s. armed forces, being sounded to render personal honors to selected individuals on the basis of rank or appointment. they are played only for official arrivals and ceremonies, never on informal occasions, and are always followed by a prescribed march or other music, played when the person being honored arrives, and before the national anthem is played. all uniformed personnel within earshot stand to attention, face the person being honored and hand salute or, if appropriate, present arms. if a senior officer is in the audience when a junior is being honored, the senior faces the junior and salutes along with everyone else. military personnel out of uniform and civilians remove their hats and place their right hands over their hearts. the full protocol is extremely complicated, recognizing some thirty-seven groups of civilian and military ranks to be honored. the u.s. army and air force share one table of honors, but the navy has a slightly different one, according more r&fs to some and fewer to others; often with different music to follow. four ruffles and flourishes are the highest civil honor, going to the president (followed by “hail to the chief ”), former presidents (the u.s. national anthem), the vice-president (“hail columbia”) and foreign heads of state or government (the appropriate national anthem). beyond these, a broad selection of other civilians is entitled to one, two, three, or four sets (followed by “the stars & stripes forever”). in contrast, the entitlements for military officers are simple because the number of ruffles and flourishes is equal to the number of stars in their rank, followed by the general’s march (army and air force) or flag officer’s march (navy).

Quarterdeck, английский
- The aftermost deck of a warship. in the age of sail, the quarterdeck was the preserve of the ship`s officers.
- [1] when decks were in tiers, a halfdeck was half the length of the vessel, and the quarter- deck was half of that. [2] formerly, a deck above the main deck on the after part of the ship, containing helm and compass, used by captain and officers to control a sailing warship. the weather side was traditionally reserved for the captain when on deck; other officers were free to use it while he was below, but scurried to clear it as soon as he appeared. if there was no weather side, the captain took the starboard. [3] nowadays, a warship’s quarters are frequently cluttered with aaa guns, depth charge racks and other paraphernalia, so the quarterdeck is that part of the main or upper deck designated by the captain for official functions, honors, and ceremonies, and as the station of the officer-of-the-deck. it is usually, but not necessarily, aft near the principal accommodation ladder or brow. [4] the quarterdeck has immense ritual significance to naval seamen—see salutes and courtesies.

Date and time notation, английский
While an american would immediately recognize “03/04/08” as symbolizing march 4, citizens of the commonwealth would dadt 90 be equally confident it stood for april 3 (but none would know if the year was 2008, 1908, or even earlier). most europeans and many asians, accustomed to totally different formats, would find it basically unintelligible, but might tentatively interpret it as april 8 (in 1903 or 2003). commercial organizations with global operations attempted to overcome these sequencing incompatibilities by requiring months to be presented alphabetically (usually abbreviated to allow standard field lengths). but computer programmers preferred a numerical format that avoided wasting space on tables for alpha-numeric conversion. in the mid–20th century, many of them saved space and encoding time (both then very costly) by using only the last two digits of the year. this came to a head in what was known as the “y2k crisis,” when it was realized that many computers around the world would interpret “00” as 1900 rather than 2000. doomsday predictions for 1 january 2000 included newborns being registered as 100 years old, elderly people recorded as dying on the day they were born, atms seizing credit cards as long-since expired, and the interest on loans issued on 31 december 1999 being calculated on minus 36,524 days instead of plus one. ultimately the crisis was a blessing in disguise, as it forced the international standards organization to develop iso 8601, promulgated in 1988 to pre-empt the “y2k” problem, along with many others by using the format year/month/day. its salient points are given in table 12.
Dangerous semicircle, английский
