To have the ending time of one period or process extend beyond the beginning time of another period or process; as, the lives of Theodore Roosevelt and Franklin Roosevelt overlapped by several decades.
An extension of geological beds above and beyond others, as in a conformable series of beds, when the upper beds extend over a wider space than the lower, either in one or in all directions.
The amount the plectrum projects beyond the string when the plectrum is in "on" position.
A design feature wherein the top and/or bottom flaps of a box do not butt, but extend one over the other. The amount of overlap is measured from flap edge to flap edge.
To extend over and rest upon; to fold over.
extend over and cover a part of; "The roofs of the houses overlap in this crowded city"
An "overlap" typically occurs when there is a mismatch between two opposing lines of elements in Close Combat so that one side has one or more elements available than the other and therefore "overlaps" an enemy's line. An element in contact with an enemy element can be overlapped on one or both sides by additional enemy element(s) that are parallel to its front edge and touching only at the front corners. An overlap also occurs when an element in contact with enemy to its front is also contacted by enemy on its flank or rear edges. Instead of resolving each attack seperately, the "overlapped" element subtracts -1 from its die roll for each edge that is overlapped. See page 23 for examples. An element forced to recoil or flee with enemy in overlap on its flank or rear edges is destroyed.
A simple adhesive joint in which the surface of one adheremd extends past the leading edge of another.
An imperfection at a toe or a root of a weld caused by metal flowing on to the surface of the parent metal without fusing it.
1: the area that extends beyond the die edge on artwork; added to ensure continuity in step and repeat. 2: the difference in length and width between the top and bottom cavities of a plastic package encapsulation mold. Also see mismatch.
1. The width of fresh paint covered by next layer. 2. Protrusion of weld metal beyond the bond at the toe of the weld.
Refers to the amount of vinyl that extends beyond the copy area and up to the pocket. Stated another way, the area of vinyl between the image area and pockets. This area is almost always printed as a "bleed" in order to provide a small margin for error in hanging the board. As a result, "overlap" and "bleed" are sometimes confused. An example: a 14' x 48' copy area + 3" overlap, top, bottom, & sides, + 3" pockets top, bottom, & side = 15' x 49' total outside dimensions (finished size) of the vinyl blank.
A section of line beyond a signal which is kept clear as a safety margin while a train is allowed to approach that signal. Often 440 yards.
A serving exchange extending beyond municipal boundaries of the E911 county/city/parish and serving subscribers in adjacent counties.
