  2. Aircraft dynamic modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_dynamic_modes

    "Lateral-directional" modes involve rolling motions and yawing motions. Motions in one of these axes almost always couples into the other so the modes are generally discussed as the "lateral-directional modes". [note 1] There are three types of possible lateral-directional dynamic motion: roll subsidence mode, spiral mode, and Dutch roll mode.

  3. Rolling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling

    The animation illustrates rolling motion of a wheel as a superposition of two motions: translation with respect to the surface, and rotation around its own axis.. Rolling is a type of motion that combines rotation (commonly, of an axially symmetric object) and translation of that object with respect to a surface (either one or the other moves), such that, if ideal conditions exist, the two are ...

  4. Slipping rib syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slipping_rib_syndrome

    Slipping rib syndrome is often confused with costochondritis and Tietze syndrome, as they also involve the cartilage of the thoracic wall. Costochondritis is a common cause of chest pain , consisting of up to 30% of chest pain complaints in emergency departments.

    Adolescents vs general population ankle sprain instances Ankle Sprain Epidemiology- U.S. Military vs General Population Ankle sprains can occur through either sports or activities of daily living, and individuals can be at higher or lower risk depending on a variety of circumstances including their homeland, race, age, sex, or profession.

  6. Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance

    Rolling resistance, sometimes called rolling friction or rolling drag, is the force resisting the motion when a body (such as a ball, tire, or wheel) rolls on a surface. It is mainly caused by non-elastic effects; that is, not all the energy needed for deformation (or movement) of the wheel, roadbed, etc., is recovered when the pressure is removed.

  7. Knee replacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knee_replacement

    Similarly, total knee replacement can be performed to correct mild valgus or varus deformity. Serious valgus or varus deformity should be corrected by osteotomy. Physical therapy has been shown to improve function, and may delay or prevent the need for knee replacement. Pain often is noted when performing physical activities requiring a wide ...

  8. Aircraft flight dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_flight_dynamics

    The roll motion is characterized by an absence of natural stability, there are no stability derivatives which generate moments in response to the inertial roll angle. A roll disturbance induces a roll rate which is only canceled by pilot or autopilot intervention. This takes place with insignificant changes in sideslip or yaw rate, so the ...

  9. Rounded shoulder posture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounded_shoulder_posture

    For instance, if an individual spends a long period of time in sitting positions without stretching, the chest and front arm muscles shorten and tighten, whereas the upper back and neck muscles weaken and lengthen. [14] Due to this asymmetry, the shoulders may roll forward and the upper back may be rounded.
