    1:22.6. 2 + 1⁄2 in (64 mm) The smallest scale able to pull real passengers. Was one of the first popular live steam gauges, developed in England in the early 1900s. In terms of model railway operation, gauge 3 is the largest (standard gauge) scenic railway modelling scale, using a scale of 13.5 mm to the foot.

    One of the smallest ( Z scale, 1:220) placed on the buffer beam of one of the largest ( Live steam, 1:8) model locomotives. Rail transport modelling uses a variety of scales (ratio between the real world and the model) to ensure scale models look correct when placed next to each other. Model railway scales are standardized worldwide by many ...

    1:480. 0.635 mm. Model railways (T) T scale, using 3 mm gauge track to represent standard gauge railways. 1:450. 0.677 mm. Model railways (T) T scale, using 3 mm gauge track to represent 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm) gauge railways. Hasegawa also produces plastic ship models in this scale.

    HO or H0 is a rail transport modelling scale using a 1:87 scale (3.5 mm to 1 foot). It is the most popular scale of model railway in the world. [1] [2] The rails are spaced 16.5 millimetres (0.650 in) apart for modelling 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) standard gauge tracks and trains in HO.

    Common gauges are 7-1/2" (Western US) and 7-1/4" (Eastern US & rest of the world), 5", and 4-3/4". Smaller live steam gauges do exist, but as the scale gets smaller, pulling power decreases. One of the smallest gauges on which a live steam engine can pull a passenger is the now almost defunct 2 + 1 ⁄ 2 -inch gauge.

  7. Kleiber's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kleiber's_law

    Kleiber's plot comparing body size to metabolic rate for a variety of species. [1] Kleiber's law, named after Max Kleiber for his biology work in the early 1930s, is the observation that, for the vast majority of animals, an animal's metabolic rate scales to the 34 power of the animal's mass. [2] More recently, Kleiber's law has also been ...

    The quadric cross is made by scaling the 3-segment generator unit by 5 1/2 then adding 3 full scaled units, one to each original segment, plus a third of a scaled unit (blue) to increase the length of the pedestal of the starting 3-segment unit (purple).

    drop. needle (s) one 15x1 (except VS1, which uses 20x1) [1] The Singer Model 27 and later model 127 were a series of lockstitch sewing machines produced by the Singer Manufacturing Company from the 1880s to the 1960s. (The 27 and the 127 were full-size versions of the Singer 28 and later model 128 which were three-quarters size).
