The DW-link uses anti-squat to eliminate "suspension bob." Squat is defined as the tendency of rear suspension to compress under acceleration. The anti-squat used in the DW-link system is achieved by a minimisation of torque about the centre of mass. The DW-link system has also been designed to minimise pedal feedback caused by suspension travel.

Tracker action in Jørlunde church.Organ by Frobenius (2009). Tracker action is a term used in reference to pipe organs and steam calliopes to indicate a mechanical linkage between keys or pedals pressed by the organist and the valve that allows air to flow into pipe(s) of the corresponding note.

A typical ETC system consists of three major components: (i) an accelerator pedal module (ideally with two or more independent sensors), (ii) a throttle valve that can be opened and closed by an electric motor (sometimes referred to as an electric or electronic throttle body (ETB)), and (iii) a powertrain or engine control module (PCM or ECM).

A single dwell linkage takes advantage of the behavior of a link with a stationary revolute (hinge) or prismatic (sliding) joint and its interaction with special coupler curves. There are two methods of producing a single-dwell: arc-based and linear-based. An arc-based single dwell linkage uses the approximation of a circular arc.
Before the introduction of transmission synchronizers in 1927, [2] double clutching was a technique required to prevent damage to an automobile's gearing during shifts. Due to the difficulty and most often unnecessary redundancy involved in the technique, coupled with the advent of synchronized gearing systems, it has largely fallen into disuse in light vehicles.
Linkage mobility Locking pliers exemplify a four-bar, one degree of freedom mechanical linkage. The adjustable base pivot makes this a two degree-of-freedom five-bar linkage. It is common practice to design the linkage system so that the movement of all of the bodies are constrained to lie on parallel planes, to form what is known as a planar ...
Jansen's linkage bears artistic as well as mechanical merit for its simulation of organic walking motion using a simple rotary input. [2] These leg mechanisms have applications in mobile robotics and in gait analysis. [3] [4] The central 'crank' link moves in circles as it is actuated by a rotary actuator such as an electric motor.
