straight-line method(a method of calculating periodic depreciation that involves subtraction of the scrap value from the cost of a depreciable asset and division of the resultant figure by the anticipated number of periods of useful life of the asset – compare compound-interest method.

This has the effect of a constant annual depreciation charge against profits year by year. In some circumstances the net residual value is ignored. OB&M Alexander Demidov)
evenly distributed load(this ensures an evenly distributed load on the roof...The permissible evenly-distributed load on the folded-down platform on the cage is 200 kg. ... with an evenly distributed load on the top. Our multiple spring design provides an evenly distributed load on the sealing faces. Alexander Demidov)
