  2. Contortion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contortion

    However, as long as the joint socket is the right shape, most extreme bends can be achieved without dislocating the joint. [4] Actual dislocations [ 5 ] are rarely used during athletic contortion acts since they make the joint more unstable and prone to injury, and a dislocated limb cannot lift itself or support any weight.

  3. Dual ball joint suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_ball_joint_suspension

    The two arms, the spindle, and the body, form a four-bar link.Use of the linkage at the lower suspension connection of either a MacPherson strut or a short long arms suspension readily gives an effective virtual ball joint outboard of the spindle, which is very useful for a suspension designer, allowing negative scrub radius whilst allowing the ball joints to move in and thus out of the way of ...

  4. Screwball Scramble - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screwball_Scramble

    If successful, the ball will roll off the end of the rods and onto the unstable table. The unstable table is a flat table with a border around it and various pegs in the middle; the player must tilt this table with a lever in order to get the ball onto a ramp at the end, and avoid falling off at a false opening in the border.

  5. Revolute joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolute_joint

    A revolute joint (also called pin joint or hinge joint) is a one-degree-of-freedom kinematic pair used frequently in mechanisms and machines. [1] The joint constrains the motion of two bodies to pure rotation along a common axis. The joint does not allow translation, or sliding linear motion, a constraint not shown in the diagram. Almost all ...

  6. Roll (gymnastics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roll_(gymnastics)

    A roll is the most basic and fundamental skill in gymnastics class. There are many variations in the skill. Rolls are similar to flips in the fact that they are a complete rotation of the body, but the rotation of the roll is usually made on the ground while a flip is made in the air with the hips passing over the head and without any hands touching the ground.

  7. List of roller coaster elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_roller_coaster...

    A heartline roll, also known as a barrel roll, is a 360-degree roller coaster inversion that rotates at the center of the train on one axis. The focus of the element is keeping the train moving in a straight line , which is accomplished by having the track change in elevation – rising and falling – throughout the inversion.

  9. Coin rotation paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coin_rotation_paradox

    The outer coin makes two rotations rolling once around the inner coin. The path of a single point on the edge of the moving coin is a cardioid.. The coin rotation paradox is the counter-intuitive math problem that, when one coin is rolled around the rim of another coin of equal size, the moving coin completes not one but two full rotations after going all the way around the stationary coin ...
