  2. Belt (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_(mechanical)

    An automotive belt with the number "740K6" or "6K740" indicates a belt 74 inches (190 cm) in length, 6 ribs wide, with a rib pitch of 9 ⁄ 64 of an inch (3.6 mm) (a standard thickness for a K series automotive belt would be 4.5mm). A metric equivalent would be usually indicated by "6PK1880" whereby 6 refers to the number of ribs, PK refers to ...

  3. Belt problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_problem

    The belt problem. The belt problem is a mathematics problem which requires finding the length of a crossed belt that connects two circular pulleys with radius r 1 and r 2 whose centers are separated by a distance P. The solution of the belt problem requires trigonometry and the concepts of the bitangent line, the vertical angle, and congruent ...

  4. Belt friction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_friction

    The equation used to model belt friction is, assuming the belt has no mass and its material is a fixed composition: [2] = where is the tension of the pulling side, is the tension of the resisting side, is the static friction coefficient, which has no units, and is the angle, in radians, formed by the first and last spots the belt touches the pulley, with the vertex at the center of the pulley.

  5. Capstan equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capstan_equation

    The capstan equation [1] or belt friction equation, also known as Euler–Eytelwein formula [2] (after Leonhard Euler and Johann Albert Eytelwein), [3] relates the hold-force to the load-force if a flexible line is wound around a cylinder (a bollard, a winch or a capstan).

  6. Tangent lines to circles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangent_lines_to_circles

    The internal and external tangent lines are useful in solving the belt problem, which is to calculate the length of a belt or rope needed to fit snugly over two pulleys. If the belt is considered to be a mathematical line of negligible thickness, and if both pulleys are assumed to lie in exactly the same plane, the problem devolves to summing ...

  7. Control chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_chart

    Control charts are graphical plots used in production control to determine whether quality and manufacturing processes are being controlled under stable conditions. (ISO 7870-1) [1] The hourly status is arranged on the graph, and the occurrence of abnormalities is judged based on the presence of data that differs from the conventional trend or deviates from the control limit line.

  8. Sommerfeld number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sommerfeld_number

    Nikolai Pavlovich Petrov's method of lubrication analysis, which assumes a concentric shaft and bearing, was the first to explain the phenomenon of bearing friction.This method, which ultimately produces the equation known as Petrov's law (or Petroff's law), is useful because it defines groups of relevant dimensionless parameters, and predicts a fairly accurate coefficient of friction, even ...

  9. Tractrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tractrix

    Tractrix with object initially at (4, 0). Suppose the object is placed at (a, 0) and the puller at the origin, so that a is the length of the pulling thread. (In the example shown to the right, the value of a is 4.)
