  2. Torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque

    A conversion factor may be necessary when using different units of power or torque. ... and torque will be a maximum for the given force. The equation for the ...

  3. Torsion (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_(mechanics)

    Torsion of a square section bar Example of torsion mechanics. In the field of solid mechanics, torsion is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque [1] [2].Torsion could be defined as strain [3] [4] or angular deformation [5], and is measured by the angle a chosen section is rotated from its equilibrium position [6].

  4. Tractive effort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tractive_effort

    The term tractive effort is often qualified as starting tractive effort, continuous tractive effort and maximum tractive effort.These terms apply to different operating conditions, but are related by common mechanical factors: input torque to the driving wheels, the wheel diameter, coefficient of friction (μ) between the driving wheels and supporting surface, and the weight applied to the ...

  5. Torsion constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_constant

    In 1820, the French engineer A. Duleau derived analytically that the torsion constant of a beam is identical to the second moment of area normal to the section J zz, which has an exact analytic equation, by assuming that a plane section before twisting remains planar after twisting, and a diameter remains a straight line. Unfortunately, that ...

  6. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    The torque on shaft is 0.0053 N⋅m at 2 A because of the assumed radius of the rotor (exactly 1 m). Assuming a different radius would change the linear K v {\displaystyle K_{\text{v}}} but would not change the final torque result.

  7. Traction (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_(mechanics)

    Traction can also refer to the maximum tractive force between a body and a surface, as limited by available friction; when this is the case, traction is often expressed as the ratio of the maximum tractive force to the normal force and is termed the coefficient of traction (similar to coefficient of friction).

  8. Mechanical advantage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_advantage

    The amount of this reduction from the ideal to the actual mechanical advantage (AMA) is defined by a factor called efficiency, a quantity which is determined by experimentation. As an example, using a block and tackle with six rope sections and a 600 lb load, the operator of an ideal system would be required to pull the rope six feet and exert ...

  9. Blade element momentum theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_Element_Momentum_Theory

    This allows us to calculate maximum power extraction for a system that includes a rotating wake. This can be shown to give the same value as that of the Betz model i.e. 0.59. This method involves recognising that the torque generated in the rotor is given by the following expression:
