  2. Cremona diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cremona_diagram

    The same steps can be taken for joints D, H and E resulting in the complete Cremona diagram where the internal forces in all members are known. In a next phase the forces caused by wind must be considered. Wind will cause pressure on the upwind side of a roof (and truss) and suction on the downwind side. This will translate to asymmetrical ...

  3. Load profile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_Profile

    In a power system, a load curve or load profile is a chart illustrating the variation in demand/electrical load over a specific time. Generation companies use this information to plan how much power they will need to generate at any given time. A load duration curve is similar to a load curve. The information is the same but is presented in a ...

  4. Linear actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_actuator

    A linear motor is functionally the same as a rotary electric motor with the rotor and stator circular magnetic field components laid out in a straight line. Where a rotary motor would spin around and re-use the same magnetic pole faces again, the magnetic field structures of a linear motor are physically repeated across the length of the actuator.

  5. Power-flow study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-flow_study

    In power engineering, the power-flow study, or load-flow study, is a numerical analysis of the flow of electric power in an interconnected system. A power-flow study usually uses simplified notations such as a one-line diagram and per-unit system, and focuses on various aspects of AC power parameters, such as voltages, voltage angles, real power and reactive power.

  6. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    The field produced by a single-phase winding can provide energy to a motor already rotating, but without auxiliary mechanisms the motor will not accelerate from a stop. A rotating magnetic field of steady amplitude requires that all three phase currents be equal in magnitude, and accurately displaced one-third of a cycle in phase.

  7. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    If two motors with the same and torque work in tandem, with rigidly connected shafts, the of the system is still the same assuming a parallel electrical connection. The K M {\displaystyle K_{\text{M}}} of the combined system increased by 2 {\displaystyle {\sqrt {2}}} , because both the torque and the losses double.

  8. Electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

    An industrial electric motor . An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft.
