Image Hankel contour.png right In mathematics , a Hankel contour is a path in the complex plane which extends from &infin ,&delta , around the origin counter clockwise and back to &infin ,&minus &delta , where &delta is an arbitrarily small positive number. The contour thus remains arbitrarily close to the real axis but without crossing the real axis except for negative values of x . Use of Hankel contours is one of the methods of contour integration . This type of path for contour integral s was first used by Hermann Hankel in his investigations of the Gamma function . The mirror image extending from &minus &infin , circling the origin clockwise , and returning to &minus &infin is also called a Hankel contour. References cite book author Hugh L.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Image Homemade merry go round.jpg thumb right A homemade merry go round. A playground roundabout or merry go round is a flat disk about 3 metres in diameter that can be made to spin by pushing on its handles. The children who spin it can jump on, and experience a dizzying ride. Roundabout is also often a synonym for carousel . The playground roundabout is a simplified version of a fairground carousel. The roundabout uses rotary motion , which means it spins around in a circle either clockwise or anti clockwise. Innovation An innovator found by the BBC has connected the roundabout to a pump, so that water is raised while the children play. This device is known as the Roundabout PlayPump . There are about 600 PlayPumps in South Africa , providing clean drinking water to about one million impoverished people.

For skateboarding Frontside band Unreferenced date December 2009 Frontside and backside are surfing , skateboarding , snowboarding and aggressive inline skating terms that are used to describe how a person approaches an obstacle or performs a certain trick. In Aggressive Skating , frontside and backside are types of grinds. The names frontside and backside originate from surfing where they mean the direction the surfer is facing while surfing a Ocean surface wave wave . If the surfer is facing the wave, he or she is surfing frontside, otherwise he or she is surfing backside. The terms forehand and backhand are synonyms for frontside and backside but they are only used in surfing. Skateboarding For performing rotational tricks on flat ground, frontside means that for the first 90 180 degrees of the rotation, the skater can see ahead in the direction of travel. For example, a regular frontside 180 Ollie is rotated toward the heels or anti clockwise clockwise for goofy skaters . Conversely, a regular Backside 180 is rotated toward the toes or clockwise anti clockwise for goofy skaters . When riding fakie , a trick is considered frontside if it is done with the same motion that would be frontside if the person were facing forward to start. For grinds, Frontside means that the skater is facing the rail ledge during the approach. A Backside grind means that the skater is facing away from the rail ledge during the approach. Snowboarding In snowboarding, frontside and backside have the same meanings as in skateboarding. When turning, backside is analogous to a toeside turn, and frontside is analogous to a heelside turn. In the air, backside means that you turn the front of your body into the rotation first and frontside means you turn your back into the rotation first. For example, a left foot forward or regular rider would rotate counterclockwise to do a frontside 360 and clockwise to do a backside 360.

In knitting , a plaited stitch is a single knitted stitch that is twisted clockwise right over left or counterclockwise left over right , usually by one half turn 180 but sometimes by a full turn 360 or more. Methods Image Knitting plaited stitches.png right thumb 200px Large scale illustration of plaited stitches in knitting Plaited stitches can be produced in several ways. Knitting into the back loop produces a clockwise plaited stitch in the lower stitch being knitted i.e., the loop that was on the left hand needle. The clockwise plaited stitch is also called a left crossed stitch, since the left strand i.e., the outgoing strand of the loop crosses over the right incoming strand. Left crossed stitches are sometimes called twisted stitches, although the latter term might be confused with similar terms from cable knitting . Conversely, a counterclockwise plaited stitch can be produced if the yarn is wrapped around the needle in the opposite direction as normal while knitting a stitch. Such a stitch is also called a right crossed stitch , since the right incoming strand crosses over the left outgoing strand. Here, the plait appears in the upper stitch being knitted, i.e., in the new loop being formed. In the brute force approach, the knitter can produce any sort of plaiting by removing the stitch to be knitted from the left hand needle, twisting it as desired, then returning it to the left hand needle and knitting it. Applications in knitting Both clockwise and counterclockwise plaited stitches are often repeated in wales, i.e., in columns of knitting, where they make attractive, subtly different ribbings. Fabrics made with plaited stitches are stiffer than normal and draw in sideways, i.e., have a smaller widthwise gauge knitting gauge . Extra long, full turn clockwise plaited stitches can be made by knitting through the back loop and wrapping the yarn twice this is an attractive stitch when repeated in a row, creating openness and a change in scale that enlivens even ... more details

A ring laser is a laser in which the laser cavity has the shape of a ring. Light in ring lasers has two possible directions of propagation clockwise and counter clockwise. Ring lasers are sometimes modified to allow only one direction of propagation by placing a device into the ring which leads to different losses for different propagation directions. For instance, this could be a Faraday effect Faraday rotator combined with a Polarization waves polarizing element. ref name ringlasers cite web url http www.rp photonics.com ring lasers.html title Ring Lasers publisher Encyclopedia of Laser Physics and Technology accessdate 2009 08 19 ref One type of ring laser design is a single crystal design, where light reflects around inside the laser crystal so as to circulate in a ring. This is the monolithic crystal design, and such devices are known as non planar ring oscillators NPROs or MISERs. ref name ringlasers There are also ring fiber laser s. ref I. N.

Semiconductor ring laser s have potential applications in all optical computing. One primary application is as an optical memory device where the direction of propagation represents either 0 or 1. They can maintain the propagation of light in exclusively the clockwise or counterclockwise direction as long as they remain powered.
