2. Steering damper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering_damper

   The steering damper or steering stabiliser is a damping device designed to inhibit an undesirable, uncontrolled movement or oscillation of a vehicle steering mechanism, a phenomenon known in motorcycling as the death wobble. The stabilizer absorbs unwanted energy in the side to side motion allowing the forks and shocks to work properly.

3. Anti-roll bar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-roll_bar

   An anti-roll bar (roll bar, anti-sway bar, sway bar, stabilizer bar) is an automobile suspension part that helps reduce the body roll of a vehicle during fast cornering or over road irregularities. It links opposite front or rear wheels to a torsion spring using short lever arms for anchors.

4. Dual pivot steering geometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_pivot_steering_geometry

   Dual-pivot steering geometry (also known as virtual pivot) is a geometric arrangement of linkages in the steering of a car designed to reduce or eliminate scrub radius by moving the pivot point of the king pin outboard, in order to improve steering precision and straight line stability.

5. Steering column - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering_column

   A steering column may also perform the following secondary functions: energy dissipation management in the event of a frontal collision; provide mounting for: the multi-function switch, column lock, column wiring, column shroud(s), transmission gear selector, gauges or other instruments as well as the electro motor and gear units found in EPAS and SbW systems;

6. Anti-rolling gyro - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-rolling_gyro

   The World War I transport USS Henderson, completed in 1917, was the first large ship with gyro stabilizers. It had two 25-ton, 9-foot (2.7 m) diameter flywheels mounted near the center of the ship, spun at 1100 rpm by 75 hp (56 kW) AC motors.

7. Gunshot residue - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunshot_residue

   Organic residues can come from propellants like nitrocellulose and trinitrotoluene, plasticisers like triacetin, stabilizers like diphenylamine and possible reaction products of said compounds. [2] The persistence of these residues is quite low compared to inorganic GSR, with very little quantities of carryover (if any).
