coefficient of slip
1Slip and fall — Slip and fall, in United States tort law, is a claim or case based on a person slipping (or tripping) and falling. It is a tort, and based on a claim that the property owner was negligent in allowing some dangerous condition to exist that caused… …
2Slip angle — In car handling, slip angle is the angle between a rolling wheel s actual direction of travel and the direction towards which it is pointing (i.e., the angle of the vector sum of wheel translational velocity v X and sideslip velocity v Y). This… …
3Stick-slip phenomenon — Stick slip (or slip stick ) refers to the phenomenon of a spontaneous jerking motion that can occur while two objects are sliding over each other. Cause Stick slip is caused by the surfaces alternatingly between a sticking to each other and… …
4Stick-slip — Le phénomène de stick slip (signifie collé glissé ) est un mouvement saccadé parfois observé lors du glissement relatif de deux objets. Explication Il s explique par les lois de Coulomb du frottement. Ces lois font intervenir les coefficients de… …
5Differential coefficient — differential dif fer*en tial, a. [Cf. F. diff[ e]rentiel.] 1. Relating to or indicating a difference; creating a difference; discriminating; special; as, differential characteristics; differential duties; a differential rate. [1913 Webster] For… …
6Washburn's equation — In physics, Washburn s equation describes capillary flow in porous materials.It is:L^2=frac{gamma Dt}{4eta}where t is the time for a liquid of viscosity eta and surface tension gamma to penetrate a distance L into a fully wettable, porous… …
7Directional stability — is stability of a moving body or vehicle about an axis which is perpendicular to its direction of motion. Stability of a vehicle concerns itself with the tendency of a vehicle to return to its original direction in relation to the oncoming medium …
8fluid mechanics — an applied science dealing with the basic principles of gaseous and liquid matter. Cf. fluid dynamics. [1940 45] * * * Study of the effects of forces and energy on liquids and gases. One branch of the field, hydrostatics, deals with fluids at… …
9Bicycle and motorcycle dynamics — A computer generated, simplified model of bike and rider demonstrating an uncontrolled right turn. An …
10Centrifugal compressor — Centrifugal compressors, sometimes termed radial compressors, are a sub class of dynamic axisymmetric work absorbing turbomachinery.[1] Centrifugal impeller with a highly polished surface likely to improve performance …
