  2. G.I. Joe: Classic Collection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.I._Joe:_Classic_Collection

    Various ethnicities in addition to Native American and African American were implied through different skin tones and head sculpt variations. These figures offered a higher level of articulation than the Hall Of Fame (HOF) figures offered earlier in the 1990s, or the G.I. Joe store exclusives from 1996 (Airborne MP, Battle of the Bulge, Dress Marine, Navy SEAL w/raft, Navy Admiral, and others ...

  3. Hamilton's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamilton's_principle

    Hamilton's principle states that the true evolution q(t) of a system described by N generalized coordinates q = (q 1, q 2, ..., q N) between two specified states q 1 = q(t 1) and q 2 = q(t 2) at two specified times t 1 and t 2 is a stationary point (a point where the variation is zero) of the action functional [] = ((), ˙ (),) where (, ˙,) is the Lagrangian function for the system.

  4. Action principles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_principles

    Action principles are "integral" approaches rather than the "differential" approach of Newtonian mechanics.[2]: 162 The core ideas are based on energy, paths, an energy function called the Lagrangian along paths, and selection of a path according to the "action", a continuous sum or integral of the Lagrangian along the path.

  5. Action figure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_figure

    The action figure is placed on the card and a bubble of clear plastic is then laid over the top of the action figure and attached to the card. The figure is then clearly visible to consumers. Often the bubble will have several small, fitted compartments to hold the figure and its accessories in place.

  6. Action (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_(physics)

    In physics, action is a scalar quantity that describes how the balance of kinetic versus potential energy of a physical system changes with trajectory. Action is significant because it is an input to the principle of stationary action, an approach to classical mechanics that is simpler for multiple objects. [1]

  7. G.I. Joe: Masterpiece Edition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.I._Joe:_Masterpiece_Edition

    The figure was a little shorter overall than the original 1960s figure, and all the limbs, torso & pelvis were just very slightly different from the original dolls. This reproduction figure became the basis for the Hasbro G.I. Joe: Timeless Collection series, which had a less pink and shiny skin tone, and a revised knee pivot that prevented the ...

  8. Big Jim (toy line) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Jim_(toy_line)

    The action figure's arms were made of a soft plastic/vinyl material and contained a mechanism that simulated the bulge of a biceps when the elbow was bent. Big Jim was less military-oriented than the G.I. Joe line, having more of a secret agent motif, but also had a large variety of outfits and situations available including sports, space ...

  9. Holonomic constraints - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holonomic_constraints

    One of the conditions for the applicability of many theorems and equations is that the system must be a holonomic system. For example, if a physical system is a holonomic system and a monogenic system, then Hamilton's principle is the necessary and sufficient condition for the correctness of Lagrange's equation. [3]
