  2. Cant (road and rail) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cant_(road_and_rail)

    For the United States, with a standard maximum unbalanced superelevation of 75 mm (3 in), the formula is this: v m a x = E a + 3 0.00066 d {\displaystyle v_{max}={\sqrt {\frac {E_{a}+3}{0.00066d}}}} where E a {\displaystyle E_{a}} is the superelevation in inches, d {\displaystyle d} is the curvature of the track in degrees per 100 feet, and v m ...

  3. Cant (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cant_(architecture)

    [1] [2] Something with a cant is canted. Canted façades are a typical of, but not exclusive to, Baroque architecture. The angle breaking the façade is less than a right angle, thus enabling a canted façade to be viewed as, and remain, one composition. Bay windows frequently have canted sides. [2] A cant is sometimes synonymous with chamfer ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_angle

    Person passed out on sidewalk – New York City, 2008 – shot using Dutch angle. In filmmaking and photography, the Dutch angle, also known as Dutch tilt, canted angle, vortex plane, or oblique angle, is a type of camera shot that involves setting the camera at an angle so that the shot is composed with vertical lines at an angle to the side of the frame, or so that the horizon line of the ...

    Classical mechanics is the branch of physics used to describe the motion of macroscopic objects. [1] It is the most familiar of the theories of physics. The concepts it covers, such as mass, acceleration, and force, are commonly used and known. [2] The subject is based upon a three-dimensional Euclidean space with fixed axes, called a frame of ...

  7. Lode coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lode_Coordinates

    This plot has omitted Lode angle values in favor of loading descriptions because of the preponderance of definitions of the Lode angle. The radial coordinate is =. The octahedral profile is a 2D plot of (,) holding constant. Plotting the yield surface in the octahedral plane demonstrates the level of Lode angle dependence.

  8. Angular displacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_displacement

    Figure 2: A rotation represented by an Euler axis and angle. In three dimensions, angular displacement is an entity with a direction and a magnitude. The direction specifies the axis of rotation, which always exists by virtue of the Euler's rotation theorem ; the magnitude specifies the rotation in radians about that axis (using the right-hand ...
