  2. Effective mass (spring–mass system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_mass_(spring...

    The effective mass of the spring in a spring-mass system when using a heavy spring (non-ideal) of uniform linear density is of the mass of the spring and is independent of the direction of the spring-mass system (i.e., horizontal, vertical, and oblique systems all have the same effective mass). This is because external acceleration does not ...

  3. Spring (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_(device)

    A flat spring fixed only at one end like a cantilever, while the free-hanging end takes the load. Coil spring Also known as a helical spring. A spring (made by winding a wire around a cylinder) is of two types: Tension or extension springs are designed to become longer under load. Their turns (loops) are normally touching in the unloaded ...

    The motor size constant and motor velocity constant (, alternatively called the back EMF constant) are values used to describe characteristics of electrical motors. Motor constant [ edit ]

  5. Garter spring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garter_spring

    A garter spring inside a rubber seal. A garter spring is a coiled steel spring that is connected at each end to create a circular shape, and is used in oil seals, shaft seals, belt-driven motors, and electrical connectors. Compression garter springs exert outward radial forces, while extension garter springs exert inward radial forces.

  6. Tuned mass damper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuned_mass_damper

    The graph shows the effect of a tuned mass damper on a simple spring–mass–damper system, excited by vibrations with an amplitude of one unit of force applied to the main mass, m 1. An important measure of performance is the ratio of the force on the motor mounts to the force vibrating the motor, ⁠ F 0 / F 1 ⁠. This assumes that the ...

  9. Balance spring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_spring

    A balance spring, or hairspring, is a spring attached to the balance wheel in mechanical timepieces. It causes the balance wheel to oscillate with a resonant frequency when the timepiece is running, which controls the speed at which the wheels of the timepiece turn, thus the rate of movement of the hands.
