Frame

A frame or framework is a structural system or a skeleton that supports other components of the object. It is used in this basic sense in art, construction, and mechanical engineering, and the expression 'frame' for eyeglasses.

  • in art, a picture frame is a solid border around a picture or painting
  • a space frame in construction
  • a beehive frame
  • in mechanical engineering, a bicycle frame, for instance
  • frames are often called after a shape they resemble, e.g. an A-frame, often used as a caning -, whipping - or flogging frame, used for securing the victim of physical punishment (either standing with his hands tied where the side bars meet above him, or to bend over the shorter cross-bar)

The word also has many extended, metaphorical meanings in various fields:

  • in spinning, a frame is a mechanical device with many spindles for spinning multiple threads simultaneously, as in spinning frame, dressing frame, or water frame
  • one of the film frames or video frames composing a film or video
    • a complete image, or the set of all picture elements representing it, in video display
    • in video compression different frames –- called I-frames, P-frames, B-frames, and D-frames –- are used for motion compensation
  • reframing in film and programming
  • in telecommunications, a data frame is a transmitted packet
  • in computer science, a stack frame
  • the frame element in HTML; see HTML element#Frames

The coupe will most likely be dropped at the end of 2006, with the entire Grand Am line being replaced by the Pontiac G6, which is based on the GM Epsilon platform.

A frame or framework is a structural system or a skeleton that supports other components of the object. The last Grand Am sedan rolled off the assembly line on December 10, 2004. one complete game of snooker; a match usually comprises at least three frames.

In the American market, when the Sunfire sedan was dropped for 2003, the Grand Am sedan was the only compact sedan in Pontiac's lineup. in law, to frame someone is to make it look as if they committed a crime when they in fact did not commit said crime, as in the title of the movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit; see frameup. The Pontiac Grand Am enjoyed success as a compact sedan filling a niche as a comfortable, affordable, reliable, yet sporty car.

See frame (dance). Safety features as dual front airbags and anti-lock brakes were now standard throughout the line, as well as traction control (ETS). the connection between lead and follow in partner dancing. Each variant added various features such as power windows and locks, dual rear exhausts, a more powerful engine (3.4 L V6) than the Ecotec, or alloy wheels. each player's turn in bowling games. This generation of the Grand Am was sold in five variants, the SE, SE1, SE2, GT, and GT1. also in mathematics, a frame can refer to a complete Heyting algebra. In 2002, the design was further refined by removing the ribbed body cladding for a "cleaner" appearance.

Also projective frame. The very first 1999 Grand Am rolled off the assembly line on June 15, 1998. See vierbein for an orthonormal frame. In 1999, the Grand Am was redesigned once again, with its only identical sibling being the Oldsmobile Alero. in mathematics, a frame is an abstract concept on a manifold, generalising frame of reference to a basis for the tangent bundle varying from point to point. There were minor cosmetic changes in 1996, and the last year of this Grand Am was 1998. a frame of reference in physics. The top engine choice was a 2.3 L 16-valve High Output Quad-4 which produced 175 hp (130 kW) at 6200 RPM and 155 ft·lbf (210 N·m) at 5200 RPM.

The Pontiac Grand Am was reintroduced as a compact car by GM in 1985 to replace the Phoenix. in computer science, a stack frame. . in telecommunications, a data frame is a transmitted packet. From 1985-2006, all Pontiac Grand Ams were built in Lansing, Michigan. reframing in film and programming. It had two 3-year runs; 1973 to 1975 and 1978 to 1980, after which the A-body Grand Am was cancelled.

in video compression different frames –- called I-frames, P-frames, B-frames, and D-frames –- are used for motion compensation. The Pontiac Grand Am began in 1973 as a midsize car on the GM A body. a complete image, or the set of all picture elements representing it, in video display. one of the film frames or video frames composing a film or video

    . in spinning, a frame is a mechanical device with many spindles for spinning multiple threads simultaneously, as in spinning frame, dressing frame, or water frame.

    an A-frame, often used as a caning -, whipping - or flogging frame, used for securing the victim of physical punishment (either standing with his hands tied where the side bars meet above him, or to bend over the shorter cross-bar). frames are often called after a shape they resemble, e.g. in mechanical engineering, a bicycle frame, for instance. a beehive frame.
