picture info	Tilt (camera) Tilting is a cinematographic technique in which the camera stays in a fixed position but rotates up/down in a vertical plane. Tilting the camera results in a motion similar to someone raising or lowering their head to look up or down. It is distinguished from panning in which the camera is horizontally pivoted left or right. Pan and tilt can be used simultaneously. In some situations the lens itself may be tilted with respect to the fixed camera body in order to generate greater depth of focus. The camera's tilt will change the position of the horizon, changing the amount of sky or ground that is seen. A tilt downward is usually required for a high-angle shot and bird's-eye view while a tilt upward is for a low-angle shot and worm's-eye view. The vertical offset between subjects can reflect differences in power, with superiority being above. Tilting can be used as a reveal as in tilting up from seeing the murder victim, to the weapon, to the identity of the killer. ...

picture info	Tilting At Windmills , the full title being ''The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha'', is a Spanish novel by Miguel de Cervantes. Originally published in two parts in 1605 and 1615, the novel is considered a founding work of Western literature and is often said to be the first modern novel. The novel has been labelled by many well-known authors as the "best novel of all time" and the "best and most central work in world literature". ''Don Quixote'' is also one of the List of literary works by number of translations, most-translated books in the world and one of the List of best-selling books, best-selling novels of all time. The plot revolves around the adventures of a member of the lowest nobility, an Hidalgo (nobility), hidalgo from La Mancha named Alonso Quijano, who reads so many chivalric romances that he loses his mind and decides to become a knight-errant () to revive chivalry and serve his nation, under the name . He recruits as his squire a simple farm labourer, Sancho Panza, wh ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Tilting Theory In mathematics, specifically representation theory, tilting theory describes a way to relate the module categories of two algebras using so-called tilting modules and associated tilting functors. Here, the second algebra is the endomorphism algebra of a tilting module over the first algebra. Tilting theory was motivated by the introduction of reflection functors by ; these functors were used to relate representations of two quivers. These functors were reformulated by , and generalized by who introduced tilting functors. defined tilted algebras and tilting modules as further generalizations of this. Definitions Suppose that ''A'' is a finite-dimensional unital associative algebra over some field. A finitely-generated right ''A''- module ''T'' is called a tilting module if it has the following three properties: ''T'' has projective dimension at most 1, in other words it is a quotient of a projective module by a projective submodule. Ext(''T'',''T'' ) = 0. The right ' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR:* [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Exponential Tilting Exponential Tilting (ET), Exponential Twisting, or Exponential Change of Measure (ECM) is a distribution shifting technique used in many parts of mathematics. The different exponential tiltings of a random variable X is known as the natural exponential family of X. Exponential Tilting is used in Monte Carlo Estimation for rare-event simulation, and rejection and importance sampling in particular. In mathematical finance Exponential Tilting is also known as Esscher tilting (or the Esscher transform), and often combined with indirect Edgeworth approximation and is used in such contexts as insurance futures pricing. The earliest formalization of Exponential Tilting is often attributed to Esscher with its use in importance sampling being attributed to David Siegmund. Overview Given a random variable X with probability distribution \mathbb, density f, and moment generating function (MGF) M_X(\theta) = \mathbb ^. Example The exponentially tilted measure in many cases has th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Tilting Three-wheeler A tilting three-wheeler, tilting trike, leaning trike, or even just tilter, is a three-wheeled vehicle and usually a narrow-track vehicle whose body and or wheels tilt in the direction of a turn. Such vehicles can corner without rolling over despite having a narrow axle track because they can balance some or all of the roll moment caused by centripetal acceleration with an opposite roll moment caused by gravity, as bicycles and motorcycles do. This also reduces the lateral acceleration experienced by the rider, which some find more comfortable than the alternative. The narrow profile can result in reduced aerodynamic drag and increased fuel efficiency. These types of vehicles have also been described as "man-wide vehicles" (MWV). As with tricycles that do not tilt, there are a variety of feasible choices of how the wheels are arranged, which wheels are steered, and which wheels are driven. In addition, there are a variety of feasible choices for which wheels tilt and whic ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
picture info	Tilting Train A tilting train is a train that has a mechanism enabling increased speed on regular rail tracks. As a train (or other vehicle) rounds a curve at speed, objects inside the train experience centrifugal force. This can cause packages to slide about or seated passengers to feel squashed by the outboard armrest, and standing passengers to lose their balance. In such excessive speeds, it generates longitudinal force that can cause the train to physically tilt on one side, eventually causing it to Derailment, derail. Tilting trains are designed to counteract this by tilting the carriages towards the inside of the curve, thus compensating for the g-force. The train may be constructed such that inertial forces cause the tilting (''passive tilt''), or it may have a computer-controlled powered mechanism (''active tilt''). The first passive Pendulum car, tilting car design was built in the US in 1937, and an improved version was built in 1939. The beginning of World War II ended development. ...

picture info	Tilting, Newfoundland And Labrador Tilting is a community on the eastern end of Fogo Island off the northeast coast of Newfoundland. It was incorporated as a town before becoming part of the Town of Fogo Island through an amalgamation in 2011. The community has been designated as a National Historic Site of Canada, and has also been designated as a Registered Heritage District by the Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador. Tilting is noted for the large number of traditional Newfoundland fishing structures and houses, many of which have been restored in recent years. The community is noteworthy for the longevity of its Irish culture and dialect. It was first settled in the 1720s, though French fishers knew of, and used, Tilting as a summer fishing base from the 16th century until the early 18th century. History Tilting is one of the most historically significant settlements in Eastern Canada. It is located on Fogo Island, one of the earliest venues for the prosecution of the migratory Atlantic cod ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
