  2. Pelorus (instrument) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelorus_(instrument)

    In marine navigation, a pelorus is a reference tool for maintaining bearing of a vessel at sea. It is a "simplified compass" without a directive element, suitably mounted and provided with vanes to permit observation of relative bearings. [1] The instrument was named for one Pelorus, said to have been the pilot for Hannibal, circa 203 BC.

  3. Gimbaled thrust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimbaled_thrust

    The middle rocket shows the straight-line flight configuration in which the direction of thrust is along the center line of the rocket and through the center of gravity of the rocket. On the rocket at the left, the nozzle has been deflected to the left and the thrust line is now inclined to the rocket center line at an angle called the gimbal ...

  4. Gimbal lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimbal_lock

    Gimbal lock is the loss of one degree of freedom in a multi-dimensional mechanism at certain alignments of the axes. In a three-dimensional three-gimbal mechanism, gimbal lock occurs when the axes of two of the gimbals are driven into a parallel configuration, "locking" the system into rotation in a degenerate two-dimensional space.

  6. Gimbal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimbal

    Illustration of a simple three-axis gimbal set; the center ring can be vertically fixed. A gimbal is a pivoted support that permits rotation of an object about an axis. A set of three gimbals, one mounted on the other with orthogonal pivot axes, may be used to allow an object mounted on the innermost gimbal to remain independent of the rotation of its support (e.g. vertical in the first ...

  7. Thrust vectoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust_vectoring

    A multi-axis thrust vectoring engine nozzle in motion. Thrust vectoring, also known as thrust vector control (TVC), is the ability of an aircraft, rocket or other vehicle to manipulate the direction of the thrust from its engine(s) or motor(s) to control the attitude or angular velocity of the vehicle.

  8. Sterndrive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterndrive

    The outdrive unit of a boat with sterndrive. A sterndrive or inboard/outboard drive (I/O) is a form of marine propulsion which combines inboard power with outboard drive. The engine sits just forward of the transom while the drive unit (outdrive or drive leg) lies outside the hull.

  9. Stave bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stave_bearing

    A stave bearing is a simple journal bearing where a shaft rotates in a bearing housing. Rather than the usual arrangement where the fixed part of the bearing surrounds most of the circumference of the shaft in one or two pieces, a stave bearing uses a large number of axial staves to support the shaft. A large housing is made with grooves ...
