Flight simulator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Flight simulators are extensively used by the aviation industry and the military for pilot training, disaster simulation and aircraft development. By 1969 airline simulators were developed where hydraulic actuators controlled each axis of motion, and simulators began to be built with six degrees of freedom (roll, pitch, yaw for angular motion and surge, heave and sway for longitudinal, vertical and lateral translation). As the motion of any simulator is far more restricted than that of a real aircraft, the motion system does not “mimic” the motion and attitude of the aircraft. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Flight_simulator   (2171 words)

NASA SimLabs - VMS - Overview   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) One aircraft being designed that may be simulated at the VMS is a next-generation transport capable of flying in near-earth orbit. Second, simulations occur with high fidelity; that is, the simulator reproduces the flight characteristics of an aircraft with a high degree of accuracy. This is one key to high-fidelity simulation and makes the VMS unsurpassed at simulating aircraft during all phases of flight, including the critical phases of landing and takeoff. www.simlabs.arc.nasa.gov /vms/vms.html   (855 words)

Brownian motion Brownian motion, stochastic motion of a particle suspended in a surrounding gas or liquid of other particles, molecules or atoms, which is in thermodynamical equilibrium. The motion of the particle is due to the collisions with the particles from its surrounding and as such is 'random', i.e. Brownian motion is often used in nanoscience as a term which should exemplify the 'blind' nature of thermodynamics - the equilibrium thermodynamics cannot 'guide' assembly of particles. nanoatlas.ifs.hr /brownian_motion.html   (181 words)

Greetings: Mouth Motion Simulator   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) Though computer modeling is an accurate method of complex motion simulation, systems like the human jaw with known physical geometry and measurable variables can be more accurately modeled using tangible artifacts. It is the intent of this team to assemble and modify a mouth motion simulator designed by a group of ENME 414 students in the spring of 1997. The upper jaw is relatively stationary, acting as a reference plane, and the lower jaw lifts towards it and shifts laterally as the two jaws come together. www.glue.umd.edu /~zhang/414_97/team1   (261 words)

Luxor Motion Simulator These days, there's a ton of motion simulators - you know, those moving seats that follow the action of some film about a big race, or battle, or something silly. While this particular simulator may have the silliest story of all, it's also the best ride since "Star Tours" at Disneyworld. The premise is an emergency evacuation from the depths of an underground pyramid buried in the Las Vegas desert (don't ask) but story means little when you'd swear you were zooming at high speeds between bizarre obsticles and plummeting vertically hunderds of feet while being shot at by a rogue military captain. www.vegasheadliners.com /stuff/motion.html   (135 words)

Solar System Motion Simulator   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) The Solar System Motion Simulator is essentially an early version of the Intergalactic Gravitational Motion Simulator. In the initial programming stages the galaxy/retrotrajectory model had not been added to the program, requiring the use of other data to test out whether the simulator and its features were operating correctly; the Solar System was a natural choice. This particular scenario is extremely unlikely; I happened upon the parameters for it by dumb luck and would no doubt find it almost impossible to generate the same result again just by guessing. astro.berkeley.edu /~dperley/programs/ssms.html   (520 words)
