2. Spinnerbait - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinnerbait

   An In-Line Spinnerbait. A spinnerbait or spinner is any one of a family of hybrid fishing lures that combines the designs of a swimbait with one or more spoon lure blades. . Spinnerbaits get the name from the action of the metallic blades, which passively revolve around the attachment point like a spinning propeller when the lure is in motion, creating varying degrees of vibration and flashing ...

3. Spoon lure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spoon_lure

   The design of the spoon lure is simple: the oblong, concave blade shape of the spoon will cause it to wabble randomly when towed or sinking through water, creating sparkles of light reflection that resemble those of a swimming bait fish's scales when looking from afar. The spoon wabbling also stirs up turbulences that can entice the fish to ...

4. Spinner (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinner_(aeronautics)

   A fan from a Rolls-Royce RB211 turbofan engine, with its spinner visible at the centre of the fan blades.. The first spinners were fitted to aircraft in the early 1910s, originally to reduce drag caused by the large-diameter rotary engines of that era, and also were prominent on World War I-era aircraft, like the Morane-Saulnier N French monoplane fighter, and for the Central Powers, Robert ...

5. Propeller (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller_(aeronautics)

   A large number of blades are used to reduce work per blade and so circulation strength. Contra-rotating propellers are used. The propellers designed are more efficient than turbo-fans and their cruising speed (Mach 0.7–0.85) is suitable for airliners, but the noise generated is tremendous (see the Antonov An-70 and Tupolev Tu-95 for examples ...

6. Blade server - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_server

   A blade server is a stripped-down server computer with a modular design optimized to minimize the use of physical space and energy. Blade servers have many components removed to save space, minimize power consumption and other considerations, while still having all the functional components to be considered a computer. [1]

7. Propeller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller

   The blades are the foil section plates that develop thrust when the propeller is rotated The hub is the central part of the propeller, which connects the blades together and fixes the propeller to the shaft. This is called the boss in the UK. Rake is the angle of the blade to a radius perpendicular to the shaft.

8. Turbine blade - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbine_blade

   A turbine blade with thermal barrier coating. This blade has no tip shroud so tip leakage is controlled by the clearance between the tip and a stationary shroud ring attached to the turbine case. Another major improvement to turbine blade material technology was the development of thermal barrier coatings (TBC). Where DS and SC developments ...
