2. Ackermann steering geometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ackermann_steering_geometry

   The Ackermann steering geometry is a geometric arrangement of linkages in the steering of a car or other vehicle designed to solve the problem of wheels on the inside and outside of a turn needing to trace out circles of different radii. It was invented by the German carriage builder Georg Lankensperger in Munich in 1816, then patented by his ...

3. Engineered stone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineered_stone

   Engineered stone is a composite material made of crushed stone bound together by an adhesive to create a solid surface. The adhesive is most commonly polymer resin, with some newer versions using cement mix. This category includes engineered quartz (SiO 2), polymer concrete and engineered marble stone. [1]

4. Wheel alignment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_alignment

   Wheel alignment of a Ford Focus. Wheel alignment, which is sometimes referred to as breaking or tracking, is part of standard automobile maintenance that consists of adjusting the angles of wheels to the car manufacturer specifications. [1] The purpose of these adjustments is to reduce tire wear and to ensure that vehicle travel is straight and ...

5. Mecanum wheel - Wikipedia

   The Mecanum wheel is an omnidirectional wheel design for a land-based vehicle to move in any direction. It is sometimes called the Swedish wheel or Ilon wheel after its inventor, Bengt Erland Ilon (1923–2008), [ 1 ] who conceived of the concept while working as an engineer with the Swedish company Mecanum AB, and patented it in the United ...

7. Toe (automotive) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toe_(automotive)

   In automotive engineering, toe, also known as tracking, [1] is the symmetric angle that each wheel makes with the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, as a function of static geometry, and kinematic and compliant effects. This can be contrasted with steer, which is the antisymmetric angle, i.e. both wheels point to the left or right, in parallel ...
