	Four-stroke cycle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ignition of fuel, power stroke, and exhaust stroke.
		The power output of the engine is dependent on the ability of the engine to allow large volume flow of both air-fuel mixture and exhaust gas through the respective valve ports, typically located in the cylinder head.
		Rod/stroke ratio is the ratio of the length of the connecting rod to the length of the crankshaft's stroke.

	ESTATE PLANNING FOR STROKE VICTIMS & GUARDIANSHIP OF DISABLED ADULTS
		If, after a stroke, the person is not competent, an attorney may be retained to file a formal complaint and other legal pleadings in the Superior Court to permit the trusted family member, friend, or professional to handle financial affairs.
		A Power of Attorney is a written document in which a competent adult individual (the "principal") appoints another competent adult individual (the "attorney-in-fact") to act on the principal's behalf.
		Powers of Attorney are generally given by one person to another so that if the granter of the power becomes ill or incapacitated, the Power of Attorney will permit the holder to pay the grantor's bills and to handle the grantor's affairs during the inability of the grantor to do the same.

	Engine Mechanical Operation - Power Stroke
		During the power stroke, no heat is transferred to the exhaust gases.
		As the volume is increased because of the piston's motion, the pressure in the gas is decreased.
		Pressure and temperature of the exhaust both decrease during the power stroke, and the final value (p5 and T5) depends only on a geometric expansion ratio (V4/V5) to some power multiplied by the intial value (p4 and T4).

	Power stroke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A power stroke is, in general, the stroke of a cyclic motor which generates force.
		In muscles, the power stroke is the stage of muscle contraction when the cross-bridge (connecting the actin in the thin filament to the myosin in the thick filament) moves towards the H-zone, thus causing the muscle fiber to contract.
		For example, this is used in canoeing to describe a powerful motion with a paddle.

	GuideLines - Single Blade Power Stroke
		In canoeing, having a well executed power stroke is a primary tool, whether you're propelling yourself across flats or working on a difficult move in whitewater.
		Much of the thrust of the power stroke is achieved not by pulling with your arms but by rotating your torso while holding the shaft vertical with the inside edge of the blade touching the boat's side.
		Generally, power strokes should be about 25 inches long with the thrust ending at your hip.

	Biopace Chainwheels
		The theory is that during the power stroke, when the cranks are more or less horizontal, you are using the power of your legs to accelerate your feet, which get going quite fast in the lower gear provided for that part of the stroke.
		Since the rider doesn't push as hard during the power phase of the stroke, and motion is slower when the leg is changing direction, the Biopace design is gentler on the knees than even round chainwheels.
		The Biopace chainwheel works like a storage device, storing power during the main power phase of the stroke as the feet accelerate, then delivering the stored power to the rear wheel during the "dead center" phase when the cranks are near vertical.

	Power Stroke Diesel
		With the temperature and humidity both hovering around 90 degrees, Wulfekuhle had to make the trip with the truck’s air conditioning off to keep the engine from overheating. By the time he pulled into the barn where the livestock sale was being held, the engine was beyond the boiling point — and so was he.
		Wulfekuhle says his first Power Stroke — the 1995 F-250 — isn’t showing any signs of tiring after nearly ten years of rugged use. “I’ve never even had to add a quart of oil between changes. It runs just like new. I’d highly recommend the Power Stroke to other farmers,” Wulfekuhle comments.
		Are you a Power Stroke owner or fleet operator? Do you use your Power Stroke in an exciting or unusual application? Do you have an interesting story to share with us about you and your truck?
