Bicycle and motorcycle dynamics is the science of the motion of bicycles and motorcycles and their components, due to the forces acting on them. Dynamics falls under a branch of physics known as classical mechanics. Bike motions of interest include balancing, steering, braking, accelerating, suspension activation, and vibration. The study of ...
For every 100 meters the user walks, one of the lower beads is pulled down. When the ninth of the lower beads is pulled, the user has walked 900 meters. When the user has walked 1000 meters, one of the upper beads is pulled down, and all the lower beads are pulled back up. Using this method, the user must know the number of paces walked in 100 ...
Tires with large unbalances are downgraded or rejected. When tires are fitted to wheels at the point of sale, they are measured again on a balancing machine, and correction weights are applied to counteract their combined unbalance. Tires may be rebalanced if driver perceives excessive vibration. Tire balancing is distinct from wheel alignment.
The Yamaha Motoroid 2 is designed to be self-driving and self balancing, negating the need for handlebars (Yamaha) Yamaha has unveiled a self-riding electric motorbike that features no handlebars ...
Two-plane, or dynamic, balancing is necessary if the out-of-balance couple at speed needs to be balanced. The second plane used is in the opposite wheel. Two-plane, or dynamic, balancing of a locomotive wheel set is known as cross-balancing. [11] Cross-balancing was not recommended by the American Railway Association until 1931.
A federal jury in Nevada has awarded more than $34 million to a woman who was arrested at age 18, wrongly convicted twice, and served nearly 16 years in a Nevada state prison for a 2001 killing ...
The USDA reported that US egg production dropped 4% year over year, totaling 9.19 billion in October 2024. The bird flu caused the loss of 2.8 million egg-laying birds in Utah, Washington, and ...
Bicycle and motorcycle geometry is the collection of key measurements (lengths and angles) that define a particular bike configuration. Primary among these are wheelbase , steering axis angle, fork offset, and trail.
