  2. Ackermann steering geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ackermann_steering_geometry

    Intersecting the axes of the front wheels on this line as well requires that the inside front wheel be turned, when steering, through a greater angle than the outside wheel. [2] Rather than the preceding "turntable" steering, where both front wheels turned around a common pivot, each wheel gained its own pivot, close to its own hub.

  4. Wheel arrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_arrangement

    Especially in steam days, wheel arrangement was an important attribute of a locomotive because there were many different types of layout adopted, each wheel being optimised for a different use (often with only some being actually "driven"). Modern diesel and electric locomotives are much more uniform, usually with all axles driven.

  5. AAR wheel arrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AAR_wheel_arrangement

    The AAR wheel arrangement system is a method of classifying locomotive (or unit) wheel arrangements that was developed by the Association of American Railroads.Essentially a simplification of the European UIC classification, it is widely used in North America to describe diesel and electric locomotives (including third-rail electric locomotives).

  6. Box-drawing characters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box-drawing_characters

    Box-drawing characters, also known as line-drawing characters, are a form of semigraphics widely used in text user interfaces to draw various geometric frames and boxes. These characters are characterized by being designed to be connected horizontally and/or vertically with adjacent characters, which requires proper alignment.

  7. Axle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axle

    The drive axle may be a live axle, but modern rear-wheel drive automobiles generally use a split axle with a differential. In this case, one half-axle or half-shaft connects the differential with the left rear wheel, a second half-shaft does the same with the right rear wheel; thus the two half-axles and the differential constitute the rear ...

  9. Whyte notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whyte_notation

    The wheel arrangement of small diesel and petrol locomotives can be classified using the same notation as steam locomotives, e.g. 0-4-0, 0-6-0, 0-8-0. Where the axles are coupled by chains or shafts (rather than side rods) or are individually driven, the terms 4w (4- wheeled ), 6w (6-wheeled) or 8w (8-wheeled) are generally used.
