  2. Oleo strut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oleo_strut

    An oleo strut is a pneumatic air–oil hydraulic shock absorber used on the landing gear of most large aircraft and many smaller ones. [1] This design cushions the impacts of landing and damps out vertical oscillations.

    Oleo strutsuspension for most large aircraft, using the same physical properties of air and hydraulic fluid. Active Body Control – ABC, is the Mercedes-Benz brand name used to describe hydropneumatic fully active suspension , that allows control of the vehicle body motions and therefore virtually eliminates body roll in many driving ...

  4. Shock absorber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_absorber

    Unlike a shock absorber, a strut has a reinforced body and stem. Struts are subjected to multidirectional loads, while a shock absorber only damps vibration, only receiving a load along its axis. Struts and shock absorbers have a different way of attachment. Shock absorbers are mounted through rubber or urethane bushings to the frame and ...

  5. Ground resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_resonance

    Ground resonance is usually precipitated by a hard landing or an asymmetrical ground contact, and is more likely to occur when components of the landing gear or damping system are improperly maintained, such as the drag hinge dampers, oleo struts, or wheel tire pressure. Under extreme conditions, the initial shock can cause violent oscillations ...

    From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junkers_Ju_288

    The Ju 288's intricate main landing gear system's design proved to be troublesome, possessing twin vertical members comprising the main "Y-shaped" retraction strut unit, directly behind a single oleo strut, [2] for each pair of twinned wheels mounted through a forward-projecting lever-action arm, to the lower end of the uniquely attached main ...
