    Figure 1: Rangekeeper Coordinate System. The coordinate system has the target as its origin. The y axis value range to the target. US Navy rangekeepers during World War II used a moving coordinate system based on the line of sight (LOS) between the ship firing its gun (known as the "own ship") and the target (known as the "target").

  3. Sommerfeld number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sommerfeld_number

    Nikolai Pavlovich Petrov's method of lubrication analysis, which assumes a concentric shaft and bearing, was the first to explain the phenomenon of bearing friction.This method, which ultimately produces the equation known as Petrov's law (or Petroff's law), is useful because it defines groups of relevant dimensionless parameters, and predicts a fairly accurate coefficient of friction, even ...

    The bearing angle value will always be less than 90 degrees. [1] For example, if Point B is located exactly southeast of Point A, the bearing from Point A to Point B is "S 45° E". [3] For example, if the bearing between Point A and Point B is S 45° E, the azimuth between Point A and Point B is 135°. [1] [3] Azimuths and bearings.

    The first American-made pocket-sized calculator, the Bowmar 901B (popularly termed The Bowmar Brain), measuring 5.2 by 3.0 by 1.5 inches (132 mm × 76 mm × 38 mm), came out in the Autumn of 1971, with four functions and an eight-digit red LED display, for US$240, while in August 1972 the four-function Sinclair Executive became the first ...

  7. Bearing pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_pressure

    Bearing pressure in case of elastic bodies when the clearance must be taken into account. In cases where the clearance can not be neglected, the contact between the male part is no longer the whole half-cylinder surface but is limited to a 2θ 0 angle. The pressure follows Hooke's law: [9] P(θ) = K⋅δ α (θ) where

  8. Bearing modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_modulus

    p = bearing pressure(N/MM2) For any given bearing, there is a value for indicated by C, for which the coefficient of friction is at a minimum. The bearing should not be operated at this value of bearing modulus, since a slight decrease in speed or a slight increase in pressure will make the part of a shaft or axle that rests on bearings operate ...
