  2. Silk reeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silk_reeling

    In Chen-style tai chi, silk reeling is the method used to coordinate the parts of the body to achieve whole-body movement: when one part moves, all parts move, or, when the dantian moves, the whole body moves. As the spiraling becomes internalized, an observer may only see the rolling of a limb, a hand turning over, or little movement at all.

  3. Leucorchestris arenicola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leucorchestris_arenicola

    This is evidenced by the reduction in eggs found during winter months. Egg clutches are enclosed in a 5 mm thick cocoon, hidden about 12 cm deep in the burrow. There are about 76 eggs on an average per clutch. Spinning the cocoon takes up a significant amount of the female spider's energy. She loses about 5 mg in weight upon completing it. [4]

    Jade Cocoon 2 (玉繭物語2 ~滅びの蟲~, Tamamayu Monogatari Tsū ~Horobi no Mushi~, literally "The Story of the Jade Cocoon 2: Insect of Destruction") is a role-playing video game developed by Genki exclusively for PlayStation 2. It is the sequel to Jade Cocoon: Story of the Tamamayu. The game features a full 3D polygonal world ...

  5. Silk waste - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silk_waste

    Silk waste includes all kinds of raw silk which may be unwindable, and therefore unsuited to the throwing process. [1] Before the introduction of machinery applicable to the spinning of silk waste, the refuse from cocoon reeling, and also from silk winding, which is now used in producing spun silk fabrics, was nearly all destroyed as being useless, with the exception of that which could be ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evergreen_bagworm

    larva crawling Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis, evergreen bagworm Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis, evergreen bagworm. The evergreen bagworm (Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis), commonly known as bagworm, eastern bagworm, common bagworm, common basket worm, or North American bagworm, is a moth that spins its cocoon in its larval life, decorating it with bits of plant material from the trees on which it ...

  7. External morphology of Lepidoptera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_morphology_of...

    The larvae of many lepidopteran species will either make a spun casing of silk called a cocoon and pupate inside it, or will pupate in a cell under the ground. In many butterflies, the pupa is suspended from a cremaster and is called a chrysalis. The adult body has a hardened exoskeleton, except for the abdomen which is less sclerotised. The ...

  8. Lagrange, Euler, and Kovalevskaya tops - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange,_Euler,_and...

    In classical mechanics, the rotation of a rigid body such as a spinning top under the influence of gravity is not, in general, an integrable problem.There are however three famous cases that are integrable, the Euler, the Lagrange, and the Kovalevskaya top, which are in fact the only integrable cases when the system is subject to holonomic constraints.

  9. Tippe top - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tippe_top

    The stem may be used as a handle to pick up the top, and is also used to spin the top into motion. When a tippe top is spun at a high angular velocity, its stem slowly tilts downwards more and more until it suddenly lifts the body of the spinning top off the ground, with the stem now pointing downward. Eventually, as the top's spinning rate ...
