  2. Belt buckle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_buckle

    The distance between the fixed frame or chape of a plate buckle and its adjustment prong is called the "throw." Box-frame buckles are a 20th-century style of military friction buckle, common on webbed belts. The box-frame buckle consists of three parts (front, back and post).

  3. Buckling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckling

    Buckling may occur even though the stresses that develop in the structure are well below those needed to cause failure in the material of which the structure is composed. . Further loading may cause significant and somewhat unpredictable deformations, possibly leading to complete loss of the member's load-carrying capac

  4. Euler's critical load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_critical_load

    Fig. 1: Critical stress vs slenderness ratio for steel, for E = 200 GPa, yield strength = 240 MPa.. Euler's critical load or Euler's buckling load is the compressive load at which a slender column will suddenly bend or buckle.

  5. Buckling-restrained braced frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckling-restrained_braced...

    Buckling-restrained braced frame (BRBF) is a structural steel frame that provides lateral resistance to buckling, particularly during seismic activity. [1] The BRBF is typically a special case of a concentrically braced frame. Tests have demonstrated BRBF systems are highly effective for energy dissipation, while being vulnerable to large ...

  6. Buckle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckle

    Since the frame is the largest part of the buckle, any and all decorations are placed on it. Decorations range from wedged shapes, picture references to people and animals, and insignia of a desired organization. [2] The part of the frame that strap goes through prior to putting the tongue/prong through the hole is often referred to as the 'end ...

  7. M-1956 load-carrying equipment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M-1956_Load-Carrying_Equipment

    The M-1956 LCE continued application of the belt-supported-by-suspenders concept, adopted by the U.S. Army at least as early as the pattern 1903 equipment. [2] The M-1956 "Belt, Individual Equipment" or pistol belt differed little in form and function from the M-1936 pistol belt and would accommodate any of the pouches and equipment that would mount on the M-1936 belt.

  8. Block and tackle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_and_tackle

    A block is a set of pulleys or sheaves mounted on a single frame. An assembly of blocks with a rope threaded through the pulleys is called tackle. The process of threading ropes or cables through blocks is called "reeving", and a threaded block and tackle is said to have been "rove". [7]
