The dihedral synchro-helix actuation door system is a type of door with a hinge mechanism which allows the doors to rotate 90° by sweeping outwards and upwards at the hinge. [1] It was designed and developed by Christian von Koenigsegg on behalf of high-performance sports cars manufacturer, Koenigsegg Automotive AB . [ 2 ]
Pin and hanger assembly. A pin and hanger assembly is used to connect two plate girders of a bridge.These assemblies are used to provide an expansion joint in the bridge. One beam (the anchor span) is set on a pier with a short section cantilevered out toward the next pier.
A hinged arch bridge is one with hinges incorporated into its structure to allow movement. In structural engineering, a hinge is essentially a "cut in the structure" that can withstand compressive forces. In a steel arch the hinge allows free rotation, [2] somewhat resembling a common hinge. The most common hinged arch bridge varieties are the ...

[a] The benefit of spring lock washers lies in the trapezoidal shape of the washer.
Diagram of a structure featuring plastic hinges In the structural engineering beam theory , plastic hinge is the deformation of a section of a beam where plastic bending occurs. [ 1 ] In earthquake engineering plastic hinge is also a type of energy damping device allowing plastic rotation [deformation] of an otherwise rigid column connection.
