center-of-gravity margin
1center-of-gravity margin — The distance through which the center of gravity can be moved aft from the quoted datum to reach the point of neutral longitudinal (pitch) stability. The center of gravity margin is an indication of the degree of longitudinal stability. The… …
2Center of pressure — The center of pressure is the point on a body where the sum total of the aerodynamic pressure field acts, causing a force and no moment about that point. Mathematically it can be said that the net pressure force on the body acts through this… …
3Gravity Payments — is the largest payment processor in Washington. They process credit card transactions for small and medium sized businesses nationwide, but about half of their customers are in Washington.HistoryGravity Payments was founded in 2004 by brothers… …
4Static margin — is a concept used to characterize the static stability and controllability of aircraft and missiles.*In aircraft analysis, static margin is defined as the distance between the center of gravity and the neutral point of the aircraft. *In missile… …
5static margin — the horizontal distance from the center of gravity to the neutral steer line divided by the wheelbase. It is positive if the center of gravity is forward of the neutral steer line …
6National Oceanographic Data Center — The National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) is one of the national environmental data centers operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) of the U.S. Department of Commerce. The main NODC facility is located in Silver …
7Longitudinal static stability — is important in determining whether an aircraft will be able to fly as intended. Static stability As any vehicle moves it will be subjected to minor changes in the forces that act on it, and in its speed. * If such a change causes further changes …
8USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78) — is to be the lead ship of her class of United States Navy supercarriers. As announced by the U.S. Navy on January 16 2007, the ship will be named after the 38th President of the United States, Gerald R. Ford. [… …
9Ultralight trike — An ultralight trike, also known as a flex wing trike, weight shift control aircraft, microlight trike, deltatrike[1] or motorized deltaplane,[2] is a type of powered hang glider using a high performance Rogallo wing coupled to a propeller powered …
10relaxed static stability — The operation of an aircraft at the center of gravity aft of the neutral point where the airplane has a negative static margin. The neutral point is that point along the path of the center of gravity movement where the stick force per knot drops… …
