We shall define critical flutter speed as the speed at which Explanation: The formulation "We shall define x-1 as the x at which..." is fairly common. Both "criterion" and "condition" are implicit. Here are some examples for parameters other than speed: IMPROVEMENT IN THE MEASUREMENT OF SPIN–LATTICE RELAXATION TIME IN ... by R Lopez - 2007 - Cited by 1 - Related articles We shall define a cutoff frequency, ωC, as the frequency at which the absolute value of the transfer function is equal to that evaluated at ω = 0 divided ... http://www.springerlink.com/index/j5v67463w6404245.pdf Flooding and churn flow in vertical pipes - Elsevier by AH Govan - 1991 - Cited by 22 - Related articles Here, we shall define flooding as the condition at which liquid begins to be carried upwards above the liquid injector, this condition being approached by ... http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/030193229190068E - Similar -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2010-09-22 12:39:08 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- As an option, you can also omit "shall."

For example, "take" is another, perfectly acceptable way of translating "принимаем". For "take * as the speed at which," you get tons of variations on the theme: http://www.google.com/#sclient=psy&hl=en&q="take * as the sp... |

as a criteria...we take into account Explanation: Human heart works on the same principles, if we think it is a mechanism. "As a criteria for defining the critical flatter speed,we take into account a condition, that the (beats) are having rapidly increasing amplitudes with that speed, which can cause the construction's failure." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2010-09-22 20:28:38 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The last part of the sentence would sound nicer if: "..., that, with the given/preset speed the (beats) are having rapidly increasing amplitudes, which can cause the construction's failure." |

A critical flutter speed is assumed to be the speed at which vibrations characterized by rapidly Explanation: increasing amplitudes occur. Such vibrations may result in the structural failure. Мне кажется, такие заковырестые фразы, да ещё не совсем удачно сформулированные, надо разбивать, и переводить по частям, чтоб читателя не запутать. |
