Clome oven in the Royal Cornwall Museum, Truro. A clome oven (or cloam oven) is a type of masonry oven with a removable door made of clay or cast iron. It was a standard fitting for most kitchen fireplaces in Cornwall and Devon. [when?] [1] The oven would be built into the side of the chimney breast, often appearing as a round bulge in the ...
The papillon door was designed by Jean Bugatti for the 1939 Type 64, [1] 14 years before Mercedes-Benz produced its similar, famous 300 SL gullwing door. The papillon door is a precursor to the gullwing door, and is slightly different in its architecture, but is often overlooked when discussing gull-wing design. [2]
Diagram of a structure featuring plastic hinges In the structural engineering beam theory , plastic hinge is the deformation of a section of a beam where plastic bending occurs. [ 1 ] In earthquake engineering plastic hinge is also a type of energy damping device allowing plastic rotation [deformation] of an otherwise rigid column connection.
A hinge joint (ginglymus or ginglymoid) is a bone joint where the articular surfaces are molded to each other in such a manner as to permit motion only in one plane. [1] According to one classification system they are said to be uniaxial (having one degree of freedom ).
The hinge theorem holds in Euclidean spaces and more generally in simply connected non-positively curved space forms.. It can be also extended from plane Euclidean geometry to higher dimension Euclidean spaces (e.g., to tetrahedra and more generally to simplices), as has been done for orthocentric tetrahedra (i.e., tetrahedra in which altitudes are concurrent) [2] and more generally for ...
