    The Velocity Model 173 SE (Standard Elite) is an entry-level canard pusher aircraft from Velocity Aircraft. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The four seat, rear engine aircraft may be powered by a 160 hp (120 kW) Lycoming IO-320 or a 200 hp (150 kW) Lycoming IO-360 engine.

  5. Wheelbuilding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheelbuilding

    A good wheelbuilder will ensure that the valve hole lies between two nearly parallel spokes to ease attachment of a pump head. This does not affect the structural integrity of the wheel, and this rule is usually observed. If the hub has a maker's label on its barrel, it is convention for the label to face (and be readable through) the valve hole.

  6. Ekman layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ekman_layer

    The Ekman layer, with its distinguishing feature the Ekman spiral, is rarely observed in the ocean. The Ekman layer near the surface of the ocean extends only about 10 – 20 meters deep, [6] and instrumentation sensitive enough to observe a velocity profile in such a shallow depth has only been available since around 1980. [2]

  7. Velocity V-Twin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity_V-Twin

    The Velocity V-Twin is a four-seat (with a five-seat option), retractable tricycle landing gear, composite construction aircraft with a twin engine pusher configuration and the canard layout of the Velocity XL single engine aircraft. Its fuselage is that of the XL-RG, with the addition of the single, vertical surface which replaces the twin end ...

    Following the definition of angular velocity, one obtains: (+ /) = (/) = Solving these two equations for and , while the latter is defined as the distance from to the center of the robot = / = / (+) / Using the equation for the angular velocity, the instantaneous velocity of the point midway between the robot's wheels is given by = = + The ...

  9. RL10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RL10

    CECE was intended to lead to RL10 engines capable of deep throttling. [16] In 2007, its operability (with some "chugging") was demonstrated at 11:1 throttle ratios. [ 17 ] In 2009, NASA reported successfully throttling from 104 percent thrust to eight percent thrust, a record for an expander cycle engine of this type.
