  2. Tandem rolling mill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tandem_rolling_mill

    Each stand of a tandem mill is set up for rolling using the mill-stand's spring curve [clarification needed] and the compressive curve of the metal so that both the rolling force and the exit thickness of each stand are determined. For mills rolling thinner strip, bridles may be added either at the entry and/or the exit to increase the strip ...

  3. Series and parallel springs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_springs

    The following table gives formula for the spring that is equivalent to a system of two springs, in series or in parallel, whose spring constants are and . [1] The compliance c {\displaystyle c} of a spring is the reciprocal 1 / k {\displaystyle 1/k} of its spring constant.)

  4. Mass-spring-damper model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass-spring-damper_model

    The mass-spring-damper model consists of discrete mass nodes distributed throughout an object and interconnected via a network of springs and dampers. This model is well-suited for modelling object with complex material properties such as nonlinearity and viscoelasticity .

  5. Effective mass (spring–mass system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_mass_(spring...

    The effective mass of the spring in a spring-mass system when using a heavy spring (non-ideal) of uniform linear density is of the mass of the spring and is independent of the direction of the spring-mass system (i.e., horizontal, vertical, and oblique systems all have the same effective mass). This is because external acceleration does not ...

  6. Spring (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_(device)

    A flat spring fixed only at one end like a cantilever, while the free-hanging end takes the load. Coil spring Also known as a helical spring. A spring (made by winding a wire around a cylinder) is of two types: Tension or extension springs are designed to become longer under load. Their turns (loops) are normally touching in the unloaded ...

  7. Motion ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_ratio

    The most common example is in a vehicle's suspension, where it is used to describe the displacement and forces in the springs and shock absorbers. The force in the spring is (roughly) the vertical force at the contact patch divided by the motion ratio, and the spring rate is the wheel rate divided by the motion ratio squared.

  8. Slipper clutch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slipper_clutch

    Slipper clutches have also been used to a lesser extent on automobiles, primarily those powered by motorcycle engines. They can also be found on racing remote control cars . [ citation needed ] Some experimental aircraft use a slipper clutch to control torsional resonance in the drive train and protect the engine from shock in the event of a ...

  9. Double wishbone suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_wishbone_suspension

    The opposite arrangement, a "pull rod", will pull on the rod during bump travel, and the rod must be attached to the top of the upright, angled downward. Locating the spring and damper inboard increases the total mass of the suspension, but reduces the unsprung mass, and also allows the designer to make the suspension more aerodynamic.
