    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_load

    massless load inertial load Vibrations of a string under a moving massless force (v=0.1c); c is the wave speed. Vibrations of a string under a moving massless force (v=0.5c); c is the wave speed. Vibrations of a string under a moving inertial force (v=0.1c); c is the wave speed.

  3. Manual handling of loads - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_handling_of_loads

    Know the weight of the load; Make sure ones footing is on stable and non-slip surfaces; Bend the knees and keep the back straight; Grab the load with a safe grip; Lift with legs, keeping the load within the area between the mid-chest and mid-thigh regions [16] Lower the load using your knees and keeping the back straight

  4. Structural load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_load

    For example, in designing a staircase, a dead load factor may be 1.2 times the weight of the structure, and a live load factor may be 1.6 times the maximum expected live load. These two "factored loads" are combined (added) to determine the "required strength" of the staircase.

  5. Load path analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_path_analysis

    [1] The U* index theory has been validated through two different physical experiments. [3] Since the U* index predicts the load paths based on the structural stiffness, it is not affected by the stress concentration problems. The load transfer analysis using the U* index is a new design paradigm for vehicle structural design.

  6. Payload fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Payload_fraction

    For this reason, the useful load fraction calculates a similar number, but it is based on the combined weight of the payload and fuel together in relation to the total weight. Propeller-driven airliners had useful load fractions on the order of 25–35%. Modern jet airliners have considerably higher useful load fractions, on the order of 45–55%.

  8. Increased limit factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Increased_limit_factor

    Often, limited data is available to determine appropriate charges for high limits of insurance. In order to price policies with high limits of insurance adequately, actuaries may first determine a "basic limit" premium and then apply increased limits factors. The basic limit is a lower limit of liability under which there is a more credible ...

  9. Wear coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wear_coefficient

    Traditionally, the wear of materials has been characterized by weight loss and wear rate. However, studies have found that wear coefficient is more suitable. The reason being that it takes the wear rate, the applied load, and the hardness of the wear pin into account. Although, measurement variations by an order of 10-1 have been observed, the ...
