Valeria Avila Guerrero October 30, 2017 Mech 194 Dr. Hight Error in Conceptual Design Case Study: Paconius and the Pedestal for Apollo This case study is based in the ancient world during the time of the temple of Apollo, where large stone pedestals were transported for construction and structural purposes. According to Henry Petroski in Design Paradigms, Case Histories of Error and Judgment in Engineering, these stones were large and heavy which presented a challenge when transporting over…

flat tire. If you do any of these steps the incorrect way it can be very fatal while driving down the road. If your flat tire is in the back for instance, you must place the jack under the rear end of the vehicle on the rear axle. After the jack is directly under the rear axle you must pump the handle of the jack so that it starts to take some pressure off the flat tire but it still on the ground. After that you should loosen up the the lug nuts and the reason you do it while the tire is still…

The Hoyt Vicxen bow was designed to be lightweight without sacrificing quality. With an axle to axle length of 30 inches, this bow is designed for comfortable use by female archers.

Easily store and carry this bow with the rest of your gear without adding too much weight or bulk. The less you have to lug around,…

leaf consists of an arched, slender piece of steel that is arranged in the same material in smaller sizes and combined together to form a reinforced arc-like element. It is then attached to the rear axle, and the chassis provides an additional weight that is added to the vehicle, preventing the axle from buckling and braking from a very high mass that was not originally designed to carry. The general purpose of the leaf spring is to…

rented out, which means they are often driven by people without prior experience who may lack awareness of the van's safety issues. Why 15 Passenger Vans Are Dangerous The passenger cabin extends well beyond the rear axle (up to 4 feet). Passengers and cargo positioned behind the rear axle make the vehicle unstable. This causes it to over steer and fishtail during an emergency swerve maneuver. This effect is especially pronounced when most of the passengers are seated…

Specify the sources (causes) of friction. The causes of friction in this lab come from three different sources. One is the string sliding over the pulley wheel. Another is the pulley wheel turning on its axle. Also, the string sliding through the hole; all these cause friction in our experiment. Glider on Frictionless Air Track Lab The acceleration of the glider can be calculated by tracking the speed as it passes through the two photogates. On the frictionless air track a glider is placed on…

Drum servo relates to drum brakes but more specifically the leading and trailing edges of the shoes. Drum brakes can have effective self-servo characteristics based upon which way the shoes are hinged, this has the effect of increasing stopping power without any additional effort by the driver because the rotation of the drum. The shoes within the drum have a leading edge and a trailing edge and are designed so that the leading edge comes into contact with the drum before the trailing edge. The…

spring traction bars or slap bars gained much popularity in the drag racing sceen. The design in this invention is merely an addition to the systems already in place by the vehicle. The slap bar takes the torsional stress from the centerline of the axle and directs it over the forward facing leadspring eyelet. In my opinion for it's time he design was incredible however it did not provide much functionality other than for hard launches coupled with its eyesoring properties the idem is bulky low…
