Tilting


Definition:

  • (p. pr. & vb. n.) of Tilt
  • (n.) The act of one who tilts; a tilt.
  • (n.) The process by which blister steel is rendered ductile by being forged with a tilt hammer.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The tilt was reproduced with a typical spread of about 10 degrees.
  • (2) The compromised ice sheet tilts and he sinks into the Arctic Sea on the back of his faltering white Icelandic pony.
  • (3) Moreover, the majority of the 'out of phase' units showed an increased discharge during side-up animal tilt and side-down neck rotation.
  • (4) It appears impossible to define a "positive" tilt test that would adequately identify patients with clinically significant dehydration or blood loss; this is due to the large variance in patients' orthostatic measurements both in a healthy and in an ill state and the lack of a significant correlation of orthostatic measurements to a level of dehydration.
  • (5) The most frequently occurring signs were: tilting of the disc (89%), oblique direction of the vessels (89%) and myopic astigmatism (96%).
  • (6) Patellar subluxation may improve substantially following either lateral release or anteromedial tibial tubercle transfer, but this study suggests that correction of subluxation is less consistent than reduction of abnormal tilt with tibial tubercle transfer or lateral release alone.
  • (7) The calculated separation between the centers of these two pigments (using an extended version of the exciton theory) is about 10 A, the pigments' molecular planes are tilted by about 20 degrees, and their N1-N3 axes are rotated by 150 degrees relative to each other.

  • (10) Past measurements have shown that the intensity range is reduced at the extremes of the F0 range, that there is a gradual upward tilt of the high- and low-intensity boundaries with increasing F0, and that a ripple exists at the boundaries.
