beveling , also: bevelling

That face flickered in the beveling of his morning mirror.

There was no ornamentation other than the chamfering, or beveling of the beams.

Wound B is a circular defect with characteristic beveling of the outer table.

The beveling was returned in 4th Edition, and the colors were much more vibrant in that set.

The defect measures 1.4 centimeters in diameter and presents characteristic beveling of the inner table.

This beveling is minute - ranging between 0.5 and 1.5 degrees - but it should be carefully maintained or altered to improve the skis' performance.

Finally, the ornate beveling around the various windows on the front of the M3 were flattened on the body of the M2.

However, the cards were far paler than their Unlimited counterparts, and the three-dimensional beveling of the cards was cropped out.

Also in 1975, an edgier and slimmer body, with more beveling and contours around the horns of the bass, was introduced.

In his design, Leavitt attempted to solve the problem through the beveling and the new convex shape he imparted to the revolving cylinder.

Often factory beveling involves just the steel edge, but Lewis prefers to bevel off an equal amount of P-tex base for better performance.

The entrance of the gunshot wound to his head had left a half-inch hole in the skull that showed internal beveling of the bony fracture.

The "beveling" or angle of the bone fracture at the back of the skull makes clear the direction of the bullet that blew away the side of the President's head.

The teeth of wild horses from Nevada and the barrier islands off Virginia were also examined and found to have no comparable beveling and scratches, Dr. Anthony said.

In the underlying bone is a corresponding wound through the skull showing beveling (a cone-shaped widening) of the margins of the bone when viewed from the interior of the skull.

In the largest of the fragments is a portion of the perimeter of a roughly circular wound presumably of exit, exhibiting beveling of the exterior of the bone, and measuring about 2.5 to 3.0 cm in diameter.

He also noted that "at one angle of the largest of the three bone fragments is a portion of the perimeter of a roughly circular and larger wound, presumably of exit, which exhibits outward beveling of the bone on the external surface."

Using a scanning electron microscope, Dr. Anthony and his colleague, Dorcas R. Brown, another archeologist, detected distinctive beveling and some tiny scratches on premolar teeth from a horse found buried at a Sredni Stog site 120 miles south of Kiev.

J. J. Humes, the pathologist, observed in the right rear of the scalp near the midline a small "wound," penetrating through the entire thickness of bone with "inward beveling of the margins of the bone when viewed from the inner aspect of the skull."

The transition of cartridge from magazine to barrel can be smoothed by minor beveling of the chamber of the barrel, by using round-nosed as opposed to flat-nosed bullets and by paying attention to condition of the feed lips and feed ramp of the magazine.

In other words, the smaller wound at the rear of the skull with inward beveling was the bullet's portal of entry and the larger wound in the fragment from the top and front of the skull with outward beveling was the portal of exit.
