  2. Force multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force_multiplication

    In military science, force multiplication or a force multiplier is a factor or a combination of factors that gives personnel or weapons (or other hardware) the ability to accomplish greater feats than without it.

  3. Covering groups of the alternating and symmetric groups

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covering_groups_of_the...

    The Schur multiplier of G is the kernel of any Schur cover and has many interpretations. When the homomorphism is understood, the group D is often called the Schur cover or Darstellungsgruppe. The Schur covers of the symmetric and alternating groups were classified in . The symmetric group of degree n ≥ 4 has Schur covers of order 2⋅n!

  4. Tennessee State Guard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennessee_State_Guard

    The State Guard acts as a force multiplier for the state's National Guard. As a state defense force, the Tennessee State Guard cannot be federalized, and is not deployed outside the borders of Tennessee, as it is a purely state-level unit. It answers solely to the Governor of Tennessee, unlike the dual federal and state controlled National Guard.

  5. Bend radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bend_radius

    Bend radius, which is measured to the inside curvature, is the minimum radius one can bend a pipe, tube, sheet, cable or hose without kinking it, damaging it, or shortening its life. The smaller the bend radius, the greater the material flexibility (as the radius of curvature decreases , the curvature increases ).

  6. Bending (metalworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_(metalworking)

    The bend deduction (BD) is twice the outside setback minus the bend allowance. BD is calculated using the following formula, where A is the angle in radians (=degrees*π/180): [11] = (+) ⁡ For bends at 90 degrees this formula can be simplified to:

  7. Linkage (mechanical) - Wikipedia

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

    An example of a simple open chain is a serial robot manipulator. These robotic systems are constructed from a series of links connected by six one degree-of-freedom revolute or prismatic joints, so the system has six degrees of freedom. An example of a simple closed chain is the RSSR (revolute-spherical-spherical-revolute) spatial four-bar linkage.

  8. Electronic color code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_color_code

    A 2.26 kΩ, 1%-precision resistor with 5 color bands (), from top, 2-2-6-1-1; the last two brown bands indicate the multiplier (×10) and the tolerance (1%).. An electronic color code or electronic colour code (see spelling differences) is used to indicate the values or ratings of electronic components, usually for resistors, but also for capacitors, inductors, diodes and others.

  9. Timoshenko–Ehrenfest beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timoshenko–Ehrenfest_beam...

    The attempts to provide precise expressions were made by many scientists, including Stephen Timoshenko, [12] Raymond D. Mindlin, [13] G. R. Cowper, [14] N. G. Stephen, [15] J. R. Hutchinson [16] etc. (see also the derivation of the Timoshenko beam theory as a refined beam theory based on the variational-asymptotic method in the book by Khanh C ...
