Rotating unbalance. Rotating unbalance is the uneven distribution of mass around an axis of rotation. A rotating mass, or rotor, is said to be out of balance when its center of mass (inertia axis) is out of alignment with the center of rotation (geometric axis). Unbalance causes a moment which gives the rotor a wobbling movement characteristic ...
v. t. e. Rotation around a fixed axis or axial rotation is a special case of rotational motion around an axis of rotation fixed, stationary, or static in three-dimensional space. This type of motion excludes the possibility of the instantaneous axis of rotation changing its orientation and cannot describe such phenomena as wobbling or precession.
Axis Communications was founded in 1984 by Martin Gren, Mikael Karlsson and Keith Bloodworth in Lund, Sweden. [4][5] The company developed and sold protocol converters and printer interfaces for the connection of PC printers in IBM mainframe and mini-computer environments. [6][7][8] By the end of the 1980s, Axis Communications opened its first ...
Precessional movement of Earth. Earth rotates (white arrows) once a day around its rotational axis (red); this axis itself rotates slowly (white circle), completing a rotation in approximately 26,000 years [ 1 ] In astronomy, axial precession is a gravity-induced, slow, and continuous change in the orientation of an astronomical body's ...
Axis III: General Medical Conditions (must be connected to a Mental Disorder) Axis IV : Psychosocial and Environmental Problems (for example limited social support network) Axis V : Global Assessment of Functioning (Psychological, social and job-related functions are evaluated on a continuum between mental health and extreme mental disorder)
Computer rendering of Euler's Disk on a slightly concave base. Euler's Disk, invented between 1987 and 1990 by Joseph Bendik, [1] is a trademarked scientific educational toy. [2] It is used to illustrate and study the dynamic system of a spinning and rolling disk on a flat or curved surface. It has been the subject of several scientific papers.
Axial flux motor. A miniature DC brushless axial motor used in a Digital Data Storage drive, showing the integration with PCB construction techniques. The rotor shown to the right is magnetized axially with alternating polarity. An axial flux motor (axial gap motor, or pancake motor) is a geometry of electric motor construction where the gap ...
Axial Age (also Axis Age, [1] from the German Achsenzeit) is a term coined by the German philosopher Karl Jaspers. It refers to broad changes in religious and philosophical thought that occurred in a variety of locations from about the 8th to the 3rd century BCE. According to Jaspers, during this period, universalizing modes of thought appeared ...
