	Shield (disambiguation) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Shield (heraldry), the principal portion of a coat of arms
		Shield (geology), a Precambrian rock mass at the centre of a continent
		Shielding is a term used informally within some online communities to describe methods used by empathic individuals to protect themselves from emotional overwhelm and over-stimulation caused by proximity to other people.

	Deflector shield - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Typically, deflector shields (often referred to as simply "shields") are some form of energy field that is projected along the surface of, or into the space around, a starship, space station, planet, moon, or building.
		Deflector shields usually work by absorbing or dissipating the energy of the incoming attack; prolonged exposure to such attacks weakens the shield and eventually results in the shield's collapse, making the ship's hull (or building's walls, or planet's surface) vulnerable to attack.
		Plasma weapons deplete the shield faster, and cause a change in the shield color where they impact (from a higher frequency color of the electromagnetic spectrum to a lower frequency one) and are not deflected.

	Deflector shield - Memory Alpha
		The deflector shields of an Intrepid-class starship's primary hull.
		The deflector shields, often referred to as just shields, or less often referred to as screens, are force-fields that surround a starship, space station, planet or other facility for protection against natural hazards and enemy attacks.
		One type of shield was capable of sustaining the energy of ninety photon torpedoes, although it would appear that this type of shield was a failure because it was not used often.

	OtherSpace Lexicon: How Things Work
		Although deflector shields are sometimes colloquially referred to as magnetic shields, there is no relationship because deflector shields exert influences on nonpolar objects.
		The shield loses effectiveness when its strength reduces to 0, at which point any objects or blasts pierce the shield to the underlying hull." The weakest absorption shield can take more damage than even the most powerful deflector shield, for the first shot only.
		Deflector shields cannot be directly observed because its gravitons are massless and invisible.

	Star Wars: Databank \| deflector shield generator
		Shield generators produce the power needed to create and maintain deflector shields, then focus those shields around a given object, be it a ship, building, or even parts of an entire planet.
		Ground-based installations use immense projectors to generate a deflector shield, like the one that protected the Rebel base on Hoth from orbital bombardment.
		The shield can deflect laser and artillery fire, but can be permeated by objects with less kinetic energy, such as battle droids on foot.

	Stove-top safety grate for electric stoves - Patent 5041720
		The heat shield preferably is made from a solid piece of sheet metal or like material which will permit transfer of heat to the utensil by conduction but generally blocks convective transfer of heat to a utensil handle positioned over the heat shield so that the handle will not overheat.
		Shield 10 and edge lips 18 and 20 are dimensioned so that when the shield 10 is placed atop electric coil heating element 14, shield 10 generally covers an ample "safe zone" to protect cooking utensil handle 22 from being overheated.
		Shield 10 and spacer 12, according to the invention, are mounted on the stove in such a way as to provide an unmistakable guide to avoid having cooking utensil handle 22 hang over the front of the stove (dial 24 being on the front of the stove in FIG.

		Particle shields are standard equippment on all starships, they absorb kinetic energy from physical impacts, and protect starships during collions with debris and other ships, also they protect from the blunt effects of proton torpedoes and concussion missiles, but they do not protect against energy attacks such as turbolaser fire.
		These shields are kept powered at all times to deflect micrometeors and other small particles, but ships do have to lower there particle shields when launching craft or fire their own physical weapons.
		The shield permeates the ship's hull and wraps the vessel in layers of energy that may extend anywhere from a few millimeters to several centimeters.

		If a deflector shield is subject to energy draining weapons (such as the Narn burst beam) and shields are still active, scores 10 times the energy draining amount against the shields as if it were damage.
		Extra power may be applied to deflector shields to enlarge their arc an additional 90 degrees so that remaining deflector shields can "pick-up the slack" of destroyed shield systems to ensure that specific shield projections remain in play.
		By being able to "shuffle" shield strength, and from the natural output of the shield generators, shield will be able to keep their shield up and minimize the amount of damage they take, but from a hard strike against one arc you can still heavily damage a Star Trek ship.

		Deflector shields are defense mechanisms that's purpose it to protect a starship or vehicle from damage that its armor cannot properly deflect.
		When a shield (either forward or rear) is struck by a blaster cannon or other hazardous material, the shield compensates by using its power to absorb the bolt of energy and dissipate it over the entire surface of the shield.
		Deflector shields are also used in other fashions such as plugging holes in a starships inner hull as well as blocking harmful radiation from escaping from reactors in industrial complexes.

	Snow blower deflector shield - Patent 4190973
		The snow deflector shield assembly includes an elongated vane cap 47 having a top plate 49 which overlies vane shifter 31 and is secured thereto by a series of spacer rivets or fasteners 57.
		Since the shield 61 is pivotally connected along its lower longitudinal edge to hinge portions 59 along the forward longitudinal edge of the vane cap, such lateral adjustments of the shifter plate cause lateral adjustments of the deflector shield 61, as shown by the dashlines in FIG.
		The present snow deflector shield is automatically adjusted from side to side as the operator adjusts the vanes 33 through the action of the shifter plate 31 and its conventional control handle 37-39.

	Star Trek Vs. Star Wars
		Stardestroyer.net holds the position that SW shields are not frequency based solely on the fact that none of the literature discussing shields mentions the word "frequency".
		Plainly, the shields probably did do their jobs, but were overpowered, and were the shields not up (assuming they were), the damage would’ve been much worse.
		As for determining shield frequencies, the reason that is probably such a difficult proposition is the fact of the shield’s energy, itself.

		If the shield had fallen before the A-Wings made their attack run (which by YOUR logic has to be so), the officer on the bridge would not have suddenly wirled around after the 'sensor domes' explode and make the anouncement.
		As I said before, the shields were weak enough to be pierced by a starfighter proton torpedo and destroy the shield generators, or the shields were brought down the same time the A-wings launched there attack and destroyed the sensor dome.
		Even so, the energy shields were still UP when the A-wings made their runs on the shield generator, showing once more that if fire had been directed at the shield generators, it was not sufficient.

		Since smaller ships have limited power with which to generate deflector shields, they often only protect set areas, or arcs, of the vessel and rely on manoeuvrability to avoid fire.
		Starship deflector shields are projected just a few molecules underneath hull plating, but different power setting and configurations can extend a shield farther away from the hull.
		Later generation shield projectors could actually support the weight of a starship with its energy.

		Every time a deflector shield intercepts damage, the integrity of its energy field is somewhat disrupted.
		Once the level of Shield Disruption is greater than the shield's listed SR rating, a successful Shield Operations roll is required every turn to maintain the shield.
		Thus, if the shield operator is engaging in any other action during the combat round, the Shield Operation roll is assessed an additional -2 penalty.

		Visually, the shields are intended to be invisible, with some sort of FX to signal when the shield is either close to collapsing, or when it is destroyed.
		Also, I decided to scrap the Engineer Shield Effect modification and begin my shields from scratch, firstly to try and optimize, for I was getting some weird issues, and secondly, because I didn't want the shield to damage infantry, so pilots wouldn't get hurt trying to board their ships.
		One gameplay reason to have different shieldings is the Falcon having turrets, so the pilot can try and deflect incoming fire by turning to face it with the working shields, while retaining most of the ship's fire arc.
