Annulet (architecture)
An annulet is a small square component in the Doric capital, under the quarter-round. It is also called a fillet or listel, although ' and ' are also more general terms for a narrow band or strip, "a narrow band in architecture: fillet" such as the ridge between flutes. An annulet is also a narrow flat architectural moulding, common in other parts of a column, ''viz.'' the bases, as well as the capital. It is so called, because it encompasses the column round. In this sense, ''annulet'' is frequently used for baguette or little astragal An astragal is a Moulding (decorative), moulding profile composed of a half-round surface surrounded by two flat planes (Annulet (architecture), fillets). An astragal is sometimes referred to as a miniature torus. It can be an architecture, a ....

Fillet (aircraft)
An aircraft fairing is a structure whose primary function is to produce a smooth outline and reduce drag.Crane, Dale: ''Dictionary of Aeronautical Terms, Third Edition'', page 206. Aviation Supplies & Academics Inc, Newcastle Washington, 1997. These structures are covers for gaps and spaces between parts of an aircraft to reduce form drag and interference drag, and to improve appearance.Bingelis, Tony: ''The Sportplane Builder'', pages 261-265. Experimental Aircraft Association Aviation Foundation, 1979. Types On aircraft, fairings are commonly found on: ; Belly fairing : Also called a "ventral fairing", it is located on the underside of the fuselage between the main wings. It can also cover additional cargo storage or fuel tanks. ; Cockpit fairing : Also called a "cockpit pod", it protects the crew on ultralight trikes. Commonly made from fiberglass, it may also incorporate a windshield.Cliche, Andre: ''Ultralight Aircraft Shopper's Guide'' 8th Edition, page C-17. Cybai ...

Fillet (clothing)
upA bronze reconstruction of the '' Diadumenos'' ("The Fillet-Bearer"), a statue by Polykleitos (5th century BC), depicting a youth binding his head with fillets A fillet is a type of headgear. It was originally worn in classical antiquity, especially in cultures of the Mediterranean, Levant and Persia, including Hellenistic civilization , Hellenic culture. At that time, a fillet was a very narrow band of cloth, leather or some form of garland, frequently worn by athletes. It was also worn as a sign of royalty and became symbolized in later ages as a metallic ring which was a stylized band of cloth. Greeks called it ''diadema'' (διάδημα). Julius Caesar refused to wear a ''diadema'' when Mark Antony offered it to him, and the Roman emperors who came after generally followed this practice until Constantine I, the first to Christianize the Roman Empire The Roman Empire ruled the Mediterranean and much of Europe, Western Asia and North Africa. The Roman people, Roman ...

Fillet (heraldry)
In English-language heraldry, the fillet is considered a Ordinary (heraldry)#Diminutives of the chief, diminutive of the chief. It is :wikisource: The Grammar of Heraldry/Chapter 4, defined as occupying one fourth the width of the chief and typically positioned at its bottom edge. When so positioned the chief is blazoned as ''supported'' by the fillet; but, when the chief is charged by the fillet, as when the fillet positioned at its top edge or middle, the chief is blazoned as ''surmounted''. Another term for the former, ''supported'', is ''sustained''. In French heraldry, terms for this charge are :fr:Liste de pièces héraldiques#Divise, ''divise'' and ''filet en chef''. The term ''chef retrait'' has also been used. The fillet or ''divise'' placed beneath the chief is of a different tincture than the field, evidently to avoid violations of the Rule of tincture#Application and exceptions, rule of tincture (see Berry 1828). There are other uses of the English fillet that are simil ...

Chief (heraldry)
In heraldic blazon, a chief is a charge on a coat of arms that takes the form of a band running horizontally across the top edge of the shield. Writers disagree in how much of the shield's surface is to be covered by the chief, ranging from one-fourth to one-third. The former is more likely if the chief is ''uncharged'', that is, if it does not have other objects placed on it. If ''charged'', the chief is typically wider to allow room for the objects drawn there. The chief is one of the ordinaries in heraldry, along with the bend, chevron, fess, and pale. There are several other ordinaries and sub-ordinaries. Variations of chief The chief may bear charges and may also be subject to variations of the partition lines. It cannot, however, be ''cotised''. The chief may be combined with another ordinary, such as a pale or a saltire, but is almost never surmounted by another ordinary. The chief will normally be superimposed over a bordure, orle and tressure, if they share the s ...

Fillet (cut)
A fillet or filet ( , ; French loanword, ) is a boneless portion of meat (including fish) cut from an animal. A cut or slice of meat is often a prime ingredient in many cuisines, and many dishes call for a specific type of fillet as one of the ingredients. Meat Beef In the case of beef, the term most often refers to beef tenderloin in the United States, especially filet mignon. Chicken Chicken fillets, sometimes called inner fillets, are a specific cut of meat from the chicken steaks. There are two fillets in a chicken, and they are each a few centimetres long and about or less wide. They lie under the main portion of the breast just above the ribcage around the center of the sternum. They are separated from the main breast by filament. Chicken filets are very popular in supermarkets in many countries. They can come attached to the main breast itself or separated from the breast in packages of generally four or more filets.

Fillet (geology)
In planetary geology the term fillet describes a fine-grained deposit in an apron shape configuration that partially or entirely surround boulders on the surface of the Moon. Fillets are a morphological expression of lunar soil development. The fillet is characterized by an onlap contact with the adjacent rock and by a shallow or concave profile. Associated morphologies are thin pockets of dust present on top of the boulder and rock fragments either laying on top of, or buried by, the fillet. These rock fragments are chipped off from the original boulder by impacts of large meteoroids. Origin The preliminary scientific report of Apollo era indicate that two processes, not mutually excluding, can be responsible for the development of fillets: 1) Deposition of material eroded from the boulder itself by the abrasive action of micrometeoroids, and 2) deposition of ejecta material from distant impact craters against the side of the boulder. Visibility Generally, fillets are smo ...

Fillet (mechanics)
In mechanical engineering, a fillet (pronounced , like "fill it") is a rounding of an interior or exterior corner of a part. An interior or exterior corner, with an angle or type of bevel, is called a "chamfer". Fillet geometry, when on an interior corner is a line of concave function, whereas a fillet on an exterior corner is a line of convex function (in these cases, fillets are typically referred to as rounds). Fillets commonly appear on welded, soldered, or brazed joints. Depending on a geometric modelling kernel different CAD software products may provide different fillet functionality. Usually fillets can be quickly designed onto parts using 3D solid modeling engineering by picking edges of interest and invoking the function. Smooth edges connecting two simple flat features are generally simple for a computer to create and fast for a human user to specify. Once these features are included in the CAD design of a part, they are often manufactured automatically using c ...

Fillet (picture Framing)
In the picture framing industry, a fillet (also referred to as a slip) is a small piece of moulding which fits inside a larger frame or, typically, underneath or in between matting, used for decorative purposes. The picture framing term is probably related to, though not necessarily derived from, the engineering term, which it is frequently pronounced similarly to; however, unlike the use of fillets in mechanical engineering, the use of "fillets" in picture frames is wholly decorative. Pronunciation ''Fillet'' can be pronounced in two ways. The other is similar to the French-derived culinary term. Either is acceptable in English, though most frame shops prefer one or the other pronunciation. Construction Fillets are typically made of soft or hard wood, and feature a flat "lip" which can fit underneath a mat; the non-lip portion is what is displayed. Except for their shape and size (which is understandably small), fillets are constructed similarly to picture frames, usually fr ...

Fillet (redaction)
To fillet in the sense of literary editing is a form of censorship or redaction effected by "cutting out" central letters of a word or name, as if the skeleton of a fish, and replacing them with dashes, to prevent full disclosure (e.g. ' for " William Pitt"). It was frequently practiced in publications of the 18th century in England. Its purpose was to inform interested readers in an obfuscated manner whilst at the same time avoiding the risk of being sued for illegal publication or defamation or libel by the overt naming of persons as having committed certain acts or spoken certain words. It was used in parliamentary reports published in ''The Gentleman's Magazine'' from 1738 onwards under the title of the "Debates in the Senate of Magna Lilliputia" in which in order to circumvent the prohibition of the publication of parliamentary debates of the English Parliament the real names of the various orators were filleted or replaced by pseudonyms or anagrams; for example, Sir Rober ...

Fish Fillet
A fish fillet, from the French word () meaning a ''thread'' or ''strip'', is the flesh of a fish which has been cut or sliced away from the bone by cutting lengthwise along one side of the fish parallel to the backbone. In preparation for filleting, any scales on the fish should be removed. The contents of the stomach also need careful detaching from the fillet. Because fish fillets do not contain the larger bones running along the vertebrae, they are often said to be "boneless". However, some species, such as the common carp, have smaller intramuscular bones called ''pins'' within the fillet. The skin present on one side may or may not be stripped from the fillet. Butterfly fillets can be produced by cutting the fillets on each side in such a way that they are held together by the flesh and skin of the belly.Fin Fish
