  2. x86 instruction listings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_instruction_listings

    existing instructions extended to a 64 bit operand size (remaining instructions) Most instructions with a 64 bit operand size encode this using a REX.W prefix; in the absence of the REX.W prefix, the corresponding instruction with 32 bit operand size is encoded. This mechanism also applies to most other instructions with 32 bit operand size.

  3. Restrictor plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restrictor_plate

    Artist rendering of a NASCAR restrictor plate. A restrictor plate or air restrictor is a device installed at the intake of an engine to limit its power. This kind of system is occasionally used in road vehicles (e.g., motorcycles) for insurance purposes, but mainly in automobile racing, to limit top speed to provide equal level of competition, and to lower costs; insurance purposes have also ...

  4. Hinge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinge

    An ornate brass door hinge A barrel hinge. A hinge is a mechanical bearing that connects two solid objects, typically allowing only a limited angle of rotation between them. Two objects connected by an ideal hinge rotate relative to each other about a fixed axis of rotation, with all other translations or rotations prevented; thus a hinge has one degree of freedom.

  5. Geared continuous hinge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geared_continuous_hinge

    A geared continuous hinge is a type of continuous hinge used mostly on doors in high-traffic entrances and features gear teeth that mesh together under a cap that runs the length of the hinge. The hinges use a number of fasteners to attach the door to the frame from top to bottom to distribute a door’s weight more evenly along the frame to ...

  6. Dihedral synchro-helix actuation doors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihedral_Synchro-Helix...

    The dihedral synchro-helix actuation door system is a type of door with a hinge mechanism which allows the doors to rotate 90° by sweeping outwards and upwards at the hinge. [1] It was designed and developed by Christian von Koenigsegg on behalf of high-performance sports cars manufacturer, Koenigsegg Automotive AB . [ 2 ]

  7. Helicopter rotor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_rotor

    The horizontal hinge, called the flapping hinge, allows the blade to move up and down. This movement is called flapping and is designed to compensate for dissymmetry of lift . The flapping hinge may be located at varying distances from the rotor hub, and there may be more than one hinge.

  8. Plastic hinge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_hinge

    By inserting a plastic hinge at a plastic limit load into a statically determinate beam, a kinematic mechanism permitting an unbounded displacement of the system can be formed. It is known as the collapse mechanism. For each degree of static indeterminacy of the beam, an additional plastic hinge must be added to form a collapse mechanism.

    To some degree, yes this is a thing. It takes a bit of time for the decoder to start up, especially with such a fuzzy codec as Vorbis is. If your computer is slow, and the player is badly written, it will probably be a lot worse even.
