screw theory
1Screw theory — was developed by Sir Robert Stawell Ball in 1876, for application in kinematics and statics of mechanisms (rigid body mechanics). It is a way to express displacements, velocities, forces and torques in three dimensional space, combining both… …
2Screw axis — The screw axis (helical axis or twist axis) of an object is a parameter for describing simultaneous rotation and translation components of that object.The axis is a directed line in space, along which a translation may occur, and about which… …
3Screw thread — Internal and external threads illustrated using a common nut and bolt. The screw and nut pair can be used to convert torque into linear force. As the screw (or bolt) is rotated, the screw moves along its axis through the fixed nut, or the non… …
4Einstein–Cartan theory — in theoretical physics extends general relativity to correctly handle spin angular momentum. As the master theory of classical physics general relativity has one known flaw: it cannot describe spin orbit coupling , i.e., exchange of intrinsic… …

6Temper screw — Temper Tem per, n. 1. The state of any compound substance which results from the mixture of various ingredients; due mixture of different qualities; just combination; as, the temper of mortar. [1913 Webster] 2. Constitution of body; temperament;… …
7Dual quaternion — The set of dual quaternions is an algebra that can be used to represent spatial rigid body displacements.[1] A dual quaternion is an ordered pair of quaternions  = (A, B) and therefore is constructed from eight real parameters. Because rigid… …
8Schraube (Mechanik) — Die Schraube (engl. screw, franz. torseur) ist ein hauptsächlich in der Mechanik der starren Körper verwendetes Konzept, das der Modellierung von mechanischen Aktionen, Geschwindigkeiten und anderer Größen dient. Auf dem Begriff der Schraube… …
9Schraubentheorie — Die Schraubentheorie ist eine hauptsächlich in der Mechanik der starren Körper verwendete Theorie zur Beschreibung statischer und kinematischer Systeme. Zentrales Konzept der Schraubentheorie ist die Schraube (engl. screw, franz. torseur), ein… …
