  2. Tire balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_balance

    These forces are resolved into static and couple values for the inner and outer planes of the wheel, and compared to the unbalance tolerance (the maximum allowable manufacturing limits). If the tire is not checked, it has the potential to cause vibration in the suspension of the vehicle on which it is mounted.

  3. Rotating unbalance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_unbalance

    In rotation an unbalance when the mass/inertia axis does not intersect with shaft axis then it is called dynamic balance. Combination of static and couple balance is dynamic unbalance. It occurs in virtually all rotors and is the most common kind of unbalance. It can be fixed by correcting the weight on at least two planes. [5]

  4. Balancing of rotating masses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balancing_of_rotating_masses

    If a system is initially unbalanced, to avoid the stress upon the bearings caused by the centrifugal couple, counterbalancing weights must be added. This is seen when a bicycle wheel gets a buckled rim. The wheel will not rotate to a preferred position but because some rim mass is offset there is a wobbling couple leading to a dynamic vibration.

  5. Engine balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_balance

    The unbalance in the remaining driving wheels is caused by a crankpin and side rod weight. The side rod weights assigned to each crankpin are measured by suspending the rod on as many scales as there are crankpins or by calculation. The reciprocating piston–crosshead–main-rod–valve-motion link is unbalanced and causes a fore-and-aft surging.

  6. Critical speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_speed

    The unbalanced mass of the rotating object causes deflection that will create resonant vibration at certain speeds, known as the critical speeds. The magnitude of deflection depends upon the following: Stiffness of the shaft and its support; Total mass of shaft and attached parts; Unbalance of the mass with respect to the axis of rotation

  7. Bicycle and motorcycle dynamics - Wikipedia

    Under front wheel braking, the lower coefficient of friction may cause the front wheel to skid which often results in a loss of balance. [93] Front flat tire. Braking a wheel with a flat tire can cause the tire to come off the rim which greatly reduces friction and, in the case of a front wheel, result in a loss of balance. [93]

    Once a snug home for birds, this fairy turret of a cottage has been lovingly converted into a tiny but airy escape for two, with a bathroom on the first floor and a bedroom tucked up in the eaves.

  9. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

    The upper chuck lowers to make contact with the upper bead. The tire is inflated to the set point pressure. The load wheel advances to contact the tire and apply the set loading force. The spindle drive accelerates the tire to the test speed. Once speed, force, and pressure are stable, load cells measure the force exerted on the load wheel by ...
