  Anchor pylon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anchor pylons or strainer pylons utilize horizontal insulators and occur at the endpoints of conductors.
Anchor pylons are also employed at branch points as branch pylons and must occur at a maximum interval of 5 km, due to technical limitations on conductor length.
Therefore, anchor pylons tend to be more stably built than a support pylon and are often used, particularly in older construction, when the power line must cross a large gap, such as a railway line, river, or valley.

 KARNAK - LoveToKnow Article on KARNAK   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
The closely crowded succession of broad pylons here suggests a want of space for westward expansion, and this is perhaps explained by a trace of a quay found byLegrain in 1905 near the southern line of pylons; a branch of the Nile or a large canal may have limited the growth.
The materials of which the pylon is composed bear witness to a temple having stood near by of the heretic and unacknowledged kings of the XVIIIth Dynasty.
A vast unfinished pylon at the west end (No. I.), 370 ft. wide and I42~ ft. high, is of later date than the court, and is usually attributed to the Ptolemaic age.

 Pylon
Pylons at which sections of conductor cables start or finish are called guyed pylons, as they need guy wires to apply support equal to the weight of the conductors on the opposite side.
Other pylon types are branch pylons for where a line branches and there are special varieties of a carrying Pylon where cables sections start and finish.
Pylons for high voltage direct current transmissions are usually equipped with one, sometimes also with two ground conductors.

Fortunately the island survived but the left branch continued to be earth filled due to the reduced water speed.
This effect was increased by a design mistake during the embankments construction, as the right branch was wrongly designed wider than the left one (70m vs 60m); to achieve this the small lateral aches of Ponte Cestio were demolished (pict.A1) and rebuilt in
The unbalanced water sharing in the two river branches caused the left branch to be earth filled due to meagre flow and, in the right one, the collapse of part of the new embankment just built, eroded by the high flow (1900).

 SOUTHERN ASTRONOMERS and AUSTRALIAN ASTRONOMY
The point of land on which the observatory was built was called after Dr. Maskelyne, but later on its name was changed to Dawes' Point, after Lieutenant Dawes, in whose care the instruments were placed, who directed the building of the observatory, and who used the instruments in the observation of the Comet.
Unfortunately, there seem to be no records of this observatory, nor of the work done in it, but its position was near the site of the southern pylon of the great Bridge now being built to span the Harbour.
The monthly meetings of the New South Wales Branch of the British Astronomical Association are held in the Library of the Observatory.

Abstract: this paper, the latter geometry is referred to as a hybrid pylon.
The earlier pylon-nacelle studies (ref. 3) have shown that the changes in pylon toe-in angle, though for the most part minimally effective, can sometimes result in lower installation drag.
The current investigation was conducted to compare the installation effect of various pylon geometries versus the wing without pylons (clean wing) in terms of the distributions of wing surface pressure coefficient, the amount of flow...
