mesh topology typically refers to a Wide Area Network where there are multiple paths connecting multiple sites. A router is used to search multiple paths and determine the best path for the data. Routes are determined by least cost, time of day and performance. A three or four site mesh network is relatively easy to create, whereas it is impractical to set up a mesh network of 100 sites or nodes. Mesh networks are used in Wide Area Networks (WANs) where reliability is important and the number of sites being connected together is fairly small.

A mesh network is costly to reconfigure, replace and administer. A mesh is best suited for situations where it will not need to be moved or expanded beyond five sites or nodes. If one site fails, an entire application can fail.

Also known as a star network, a star topology is one of the most common network setups where each of the devices and computers on a network connect to a central hub. A major disadvantage of this type of network topology is that if the central hub fails, all computers connected to that hub would be disconnected. Below is a visual example of a simple computer setup on a network using the star topology.

How do you tuck your penis between between your legs with ducktape?

push it back towards the anus and tape it sideways and hope you don't get aroused in any way shape or form! Best to use tight underware or mesh type undergarment.


What is the best method to separate a mixture of solid particles of the same material into lost of different size?

By using a series of sieves with increasingly small mesh openings, you can separate the material (soil, for instance, or a mixture of rocks, gravel, pebbles, and sand) into different size ranges. Sieves come in all kinds of mesh sizes, from large (with low mesh numbers, such as 2, which has an opening of 11.2 mm) to very fine (with high mesh numbers, such as 635, which has an opening of 0.02 mm). There are many commercially available mesh sizes, so you don't typically use them all to separate the material. Instead, you might choose a few selected ones that depends on the material you are separating. One common way to do this is to stack the sieves (they are made to interlock when stacked) from lowest mesh number (biggest opening) on top to highest mesh number (smallest opening) on the bottom, and put them on a sieve shaker. As the shaker vibrates, the material gradually works its way downwards by gravity, and each particle ideally goes as far down as it can until it meets a screen that is too small for it to pass through. Obviously, if the particles are wet or sticky, this technique doesn't work very well. The different lots that have now been created are often referred to by their mesh ranges, such as -2/+10 mesh, meaning the sample has passed through the #2 mesh sieve and has been collected on the #10 mesh sieve. The "negative" sign in this case means "smaller than"; there is no "-2" mesh size. A common mesh size you will see on bottles of chemicals in powder form is -325 mesh, which means the particles are smaller than 44 microns (.044 mm).

metal mesh


Can the radio waves be easily blocked?

Yes, creating a Faraday cage (essentially a container covered with metal mesh), you can block all radio waves. The spacing of the mesh or grid will determine the frequencies that are blocked.
