Torsion beam suspension — A torsion bar suspension, also known as a torsion spring suspension or incorrectly torsion beam, is a general term for any vehicle suspension that uses a torsion bar as its main weight bearing spring. One end of a long metal bar is attached… … Wikipedia
Torsion spring — A mousetrap powered by a helical torsion spring A torsion spring is a spring that works by torsion or twisting; that is, a flexible elastic object that stores mechanical energy when it is twisted. The amount of force (actually torque) it exerts… … Wikipedia
torsion balance — an instrument for measuring small forces, as electric attraction or repulsion, by determining the amount of torsion or twisting they cause in a slender wire or filament. [1820 30] * * * Device used to measure the gravitational acceleration at the … Universalium
Torsion constant — The torsion constant is a geometrical property of a beam s cross section which determines the relationship between angle of twist and applied torque.For a beam of uniform cross section along its length: heta = frac{TL}{JG} heta is the angle of… … Wikipedia
Torsion box — A torsion box consists of two skins applied to a core material, usually a grid or framework of some kind. The torsion box functions as a beam, but is considerably lighter than a solid beam of the same size without losing much strength. Torsion… … Wikipedia
torsion balance — 1. a balance used in the laboratory, having a scale beam supported by metallic ribbons that act by torsion. 2. an electrometer that acts by the twisting of a single fiber of the web of a silkworm … Medical dictionary
