As used herein, the term "contact force" refers to a mechanical force applied through physical contact between two solid objects such as a force applied by pushing or mechanical engagement, or a force applied via friction, but does not extend to any force which requires adhesion between the two objects nor to magnetic attraction or repulsion between the two objects. 1, record 1, English, - contact%20force

Sliding friction. The force needed to keep one solid surface just sliding over another is known as kinetic or dynamic friction. The force which has to be applied to initiate motion is slightly greater and is called static or limiting friction. The friction increases approximately in proportion to the total perpendicular force (normal reaction) between the surfaces and its ratio to the normal reaction between the surfaces is called a coefficient of friction. 4, record 7, English, - coefficient%20of%20friction

Wheelbarrowing is a condition that arises when the nosewheel rather than the main gear is forced to support an abnormal share of the aircraft's weight. Touching down on the nosewheel, excessive braking, or friction between the wheels and runway caused by a side-skid may cause wheelbarrowing. Wheelbarrowing can damage a nosewheel or cause an aircraft to yaw uncontrollably off its intended course.. 2, record 11, English, - wheelbarrowing
Record number: 11, Textual support number: 1 OBS
During take-off, "wheelbarrowing" may occur at lower speeds than during landing due to the slipstream increasing the lifting effect of the horizontal stabilizer. The use of excessive forward elevator control pressure during take-off to hold the aircraft on the ground to speeds above normal take-off speed could, if a "yaw" force is introduced, result in serious wheelbarrowing. 3, record 11, English, - wheelbarrowing

Generally, the greater the wind speed then the greater the surface ocean current speed. The wind force acting on the surface of ocean is called wind stress and denoted by Tau. Wind stress acts in the direction of the wind on the surface. In contrast, pressure acts perpendicular to the surface. ... Wind stress [(tau)] is a force per unit area. [tau] = mass[star]acceleration/area. Units should be kg[star]/s²·/m² (Newton = kg[star]m/s²). So [tau] is in Newton/m².

Un palier lubrifié au gaz est un type de palier qui a ses surfaces de contact complètement séparées grâce à une couche de gaz. Même si une force est appliquée au palier, les surfaces restent hors de contact grâce à un coussin de gaz. [...] Les paliers à gaz ont certainement des avantages particuliers par rapport aux autres types de suspension : tout d’abord, ils permettent un fonctionnement avec un minimum de frottement; ensuite, ils protègent le moteur d’un environnement polluant; enfin, ils peuvent opérer dans une gamme de températures assez étendue. 3, record 22, French, - palier%20%C3%A0%20gaz%20cylindrique
