0 a piece of equipment used in mathematics consisting of two parts which are joined at one end and have sharp points at the other and which are used for measuring lines and angles and for making marks to show positions along lines -- cyrkiel
The image consistently included a pair of dividers opened across the scale bar.
Dividers can be placed at any point, creating a versatile system of classification.
There are dividers placed in the space beneath the rollers to separate and provide channels for the different grades.
This was indeed the case, and fig. 3 demonstrates a power-law relationship between the number of dividers and divider size.
Capacitive voltage dividers and current wall monitor were located on different points of the lines to measure the voltage and current pulses.
The tubers slide down the channel between the dividers, which is covered with a foam layer approximately 7 mm thick, and designed to minimize drop damage.
Then, when it is near the proper quality to be called dough and ready for the oven, it goes into automatic dividers.
It is not something which can be settled with a slide-rule and a pair of dividers.
