  2. Peaucellier–Lipkin linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peaucellier–Lipkin_linkage

    Animation for Peaucellier–Lipkin linkage: Dimensions: Cyan Links = a Green Links = b Yellow Links = c. The Peaucellier–Lipkin linkage (or Peaucellier–Lipkin cell, or Peaucellier–Lipkin inversor), invented in 1864, was the first true planar straight line mechanism – the first planar linkage capable of transforming rotary motion into perfect straight-line motion, and vice versa.

  3. Linear motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_motion

    The motion of a particle (a point-like object) along a line can be described by its position , which varies with (time). An example of linear motion is an athlete running a 100-meter dash along a straight track. [2] Linear motion is the most basic of all motion.

  4. Hart's inversors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hart's_inversors

    Hart's first inversor, also known as Hart's W-frame, is based on an antiparallelogram.The addition of fixed points and a driving arm make it a 6-bar linkage. It can be used to convert rotary motion to a perfect straight line by fixing a point on one short link and driving a point on another link in a circular arc.

  5. Hoecken linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoecken_linkage

    In kinematics, the Hoecken linkage (named for Karl Hoecken) [1] is a four-bar linkage that converts rotational motion to approximate straight-line motion. The Hoecken linkage is a cognate linkage of the Chebyshev linkage and Chebyshev's Lambda Mechanism. The linkage was first published in 1926. [2] [3]

  6. Straight-fourteen engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight-fourteen_engine

    The only straight-14 engine known to reach production is part of the Wärtsilä-Sulzer RTA96-C family of 6-cylinder to 14-cylinder two-stroke marine engines. This engine is used in the Emma Mærsk , which was the world's largest container ship when it was built in 2006.

  7. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Distance_from_a_point_to_a_line

    The line with equation ax + by + c = 0 has slope -a/b, so any line perpendicular to it will have slope b/a (the negative reciprocal). Let (m, n) be the point of intersection of the line ax + by + c = 0 and the line perpendicular to it which passes through the point (x 0, y 0). The line through these two points is perpendicular to the original ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_energy

    For the translational kinetic energy, that is the kinetic energy associated with rectilinear motion, of a rigid body with constant mass, whose center of mass is moving in a straight line with speed , as seen above is equal to = where:
