  2. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gear_nomenclature

    This page lists the standard US nomenclature used in the description of mechanical gear construction and function, together with definitions of the terms. The terminology was established by the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA), under accreditation from the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_college_football...

    This is a list of college football teams by the number of weeks they have been ranked number one in the AP poll since its inception in 1936 through January 21, 2025 (Final poll for 2024-25 season). [ 1 ] [ 2 ]

  4. Architectural gear ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_gear_ratio

    The occurrence of spatially varying gear ratio gives rise to a new insight of muscle biology; “inhomogenous muscle mechanics. [4] ” One feature of the ratio is that there is an optimal gear ratio for each muscle; as the length-tension and force-velocity relationships describe. Length-tension refers to the max tension that can be created ...

  5. AP poll - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Poll

    In Division I men's and women's college basketball, the AP Poll is largely just a tool to compare schools throughout the season and spark debate, as it has no bearing on postseason play. Generally, all top 25 teams in the poll are invited to the men's and women's NCAA basketball tournament, also known as March Madness. The poll is usually ...

  6. Epicyclic gearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicyclic_gearing

    This is the lowest gear ratio attainable with an epicyclic gear train. This type of gearing is sometimes used in tractors and construction equipment to provide high torque to the drive wheels. In bicycle hub gears, the sun is usually stationary, being keyed to the axle or even machined directly onto it. The planetary gear carrier is used as input.

  7. Backlash (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlash_(engineering)

    In mechanical engineering, backlash, sometimes called lash, play, or slop, is a clearance or lost motion in a mechanism caused by gaps between the parts. It can be defined as "the maximum distance or angle through which any part of a mechanical system may be moved in one direction without applying appreciable force or motion to the next part in mechanical sequence."

  8. Korean shamanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_shamanism

    The taegeuk symbol, representing the cosmos, is often displayed on the exterior of guttang, or shrine-buildings in the musok religion.. Korean shamanism, also known as musok (Korean: 무속; Hanja: 巫俗) or Mu-ism (무교; 巫敎; Mugyo), is a religion from Korea.

  9. Strain wave gearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_Wave_Gearing

    High gear reduction ratios are possible in a small volume (a ratio from 30:1 up to 320:1 is possible in the same space in which planetary gears typically only produce a 10:1 ratio). Disadvantages include a tendency for 'wind-up' (a torsional spring rate) in the low torque region. Strain wave gearing is commonly used in robotics [3] and ...
