  2. Motion simulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_simulator

    The filters themselves may also introduce false cues, defined as: 1) a motion cue in the simulator that is in the opposite direction to that in the aircraft, 2) a motion cue in the simulator when none was expected in the aircraft, and 3) a relatively high-frequency distortion of a sustained cue in the simulator for an expected sustained cue in ...

  3. Typhoon (simulator) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typhoon_(simulator)

    Typhoon (also expanded as Typhoon "Mad Wave" Motion Theater Deluxe) is a coin-operated media-based [1] motion simulator created by Triotech. It is a 3D arcade machine with 2 seats for people to sit in including 15 films where it can shake and drop. The machine delivers up to 2 g-forces of acceleration. [2]

  4. Jerk (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    When the velocity changes sign (at the maximum and minimum displacements), the magnitude of the force on the mass changes by twice the magnitude of the frictional force, because the spring force is continuous and the frictional force reverses direction with velocity. The jump in acceleration equals the force on the mass divided by the mass.

  5. Areal velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Areal_velocity

    The vector direction is postulated to be normal to the plane containing the position and velocity vectors of the particle, following a convention known as the right hand rule. Conservation of areal velocity is a general property of central force motion , [ 1 ] and, within the context of classical mechanics, is equivalent to the conservation of ...

  6. Spacecraft flight dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacecraft_flight_dynamics

    A space vehicle's flight is determined by application of Newton's second law of motion: =, where F is the vector sum of all forces exerted on the vehicle, m is its current mass, and a is the acceleration vector, the instantaneous rate of change of velocity (v), which in turn is the instantaneous rate of change of displacement.

  7. Advanced Technology Leisure Application Simulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Technology...

    The Advanced Technology Leisure Application Simulator, or ATLAS, is a large hydraulic motion simulator.It was designed, as the name implies, for the theme park industry. The ATLAS is a product of Rediffusion Simulation [1] in Sussex, England, now owned by Thales Group and known as Thales Training & Simulati

  8. Degrees of freedom (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degrees_of_freedom_(mechanics)

    When motion involving large displacements is the main objective of study (e.g. for analyzing the motion of satellites), a deformable body may be approximated as a rigid body (or even a particle) in order to simplify the analysis. The degree of freedom of a system can be viewed as the minimum number of coordinates required to specify a ...

  9. Radial velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_Velocity

    A plane flying past a radar station: the plane's velocity vector (red) is the sum of the radial velocity (green) and the tangential velocity (blue). The radial velocity or line-of-sight velocity of a target with respect to an observer is the rate of change of the vector displacement between the two points.
