  2. Ring system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_system

    Artist's depiction of Haumea's ring system. A ring around Haumea, a dwarf planet and resonant Kuiper belt member, was revealed by a stellar occultation observed on 21 January 2017. This makes it the first trans-Neptunian object found to have a ring system. [32] [33] The ring has a radius of about 2,287 km, a width of ≈ 70 km and an opacity of ...

  3. Ring (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_(chemistry)

    In chemistry, a ring is an ambiguous term referring either to a simple cycle of atoms and bonds in a molecule or to a connected set of atoms and bonds in which every atom and bond is a member of a cycle (also called a ring system). A ring system that is a simple cycle is called a monocycle or simple ring, and one that is not a simple cycle is ...

  4. Orbital welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_welding

    The main components of every orbital welding system are the power supply with integrated computer control, the welding head and, where required, a wire feed mechanism. Welding of certain sizes and material types will also require the use of a water/coolant system. There are a large number of factors that can have an influence on the welding result.

  5. Orbital ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_ring

    An orbital ring is a concept of an artificial ring placed around a body and set rotating at such a rate that the apparent centrifugal force is large enough to counteract the force of gravity. For the Earth , the required speed is on the order of 10 km/sec, compared to a typical low Earth orbit velocity of 8 km/sec.
