2. Radius rod - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radius_rod

   Radius rod. A radius rod (also called a radius arm, torque arm, torque spring, and torsion bar) is a suspension link intended to control wheel motion in the longitudinal (fore-aft) direction. The link is connected (with a rubber or solid bushing) on one end to the wheel carrier or axle, on the other to the chassis or unibody of the vehicle.

3. Bearing (mechanical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_(mechanical)

   A ball bearing. A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion to only the desired motion and reduces friction between moving parts.The design of the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear movement of the moving part or for free rotation around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts.

4. Trunnion - Wikipedia

   Trunnion. The trunnions are the protrusions from the side of the barrel that rest on the carriage. A trunnion (from Old French trognon 'trunk') [1] is a cylindrical protrusion used as a mounting or pivoting point. First associated with cannons, they are an important military development.

5. Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance

   Wheel bearing rolling resistance is lowest with high axle loads and intermediate speeds of 60–80 km/h with a Crr of 0.00013 (axle load of 21 tonnes). For empty freight cars with axle loads of 5.5 tonnes, Crr goes up to 0.00020 at 60 km/h but at a low speed of 20 km/h it increases to 0.00024 and at a high speed (for freight trains) of 120 km/h ...

6. Caster - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caster

   A standard wheel has a center rotating hub (or bearing) and a compliant material on its outer side. A caster is a wheel mounted to a fork, with an optional, additional offset steering joint. An omnidirectional wheel ( Mecanum wheel , Omni wheel , or Swedish wheel) is made of a large central hub with many additional smaller wheels mounted along ...
