	The Falkirk Wheel \| Welcome to The Falkirk Wheel \| Falkirk, Wheel, Canal, Boat, Which
		The Falkirk Wheel is an exceptional feat of modern engineering and is already being recognised as an inspirational sculpture for the 21st Century.
		Designed to reconnect the Forth and Clyde Canal and the Union Canal and sited in a natural open amphitheatre at Rough Castle near Falkirk, this remarkable and elegant mechanical marvel is the only rotating boatlift in the world and truly one of a kind.
		The Falkirk Wheel can carry eight or more boats at a time with a single trip taking about 60 minutes and providing an unforgettable experience and great 'day out' for all the family.

	Exploratorium: Science Snacks: Bicycle Wheel Gyro
		A rotating bicycle wheel has angular momentum, which is a property involving the speed of rotation, the mass of the wheel, and how the mass is distributed.
		For example, most of a bicycle wheel's mass is concentrated along the wheel's rim, rather than at the center, and this causes a larger angular momentum at a given speed.
		Unfortunately, the gyroscopic precession of the wheel hanging from the rope is not explainable in as straightforward a manner as the rotating stool effect.

	Building Bicycle Wheels by Sheldon Brown
		For lateral truing, spin the wheel in the stand and find the place on the rim that is farthest away from where most of the rim is. If the rim is off to the left, tighten spokes that go to the right flange and loosen those that go to the left flange.
		Before a wheel is ready for the road it must be stress relieved, because the bend in the spoke has to accommodate itself to the shape of the hub flange and vice versa, and a similar process may go on where the nipple sits in the rim.
		Bicycle folklore has it that radial-spoked wheels give a "harsh" ride, because the shorter spokes are less "stretchy" than the longer spokes used in semi-tangent wheels.

	Wheel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The wheel reached Europe in the 4th millennium, and India with the Indus Valley Civilization in the 3rd millennium.
		In China, the wheel is certainly present with the adoption of the chariot in ca.
		The wheel (with axle) is considered one of the simple machines and lies near the practical starting point of advanced human technology (advanced, that is, in comparison with even earlier mechanical innovations such as stone/bone knives and axes, tension-sprung projectiles, scoops and shovels, etc.,.).

	Bicycle wheel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bicycle wheels can also be categorized according to the way in which the tire or tyre attaches to the wheel.
		While tubular wheels are lighter, and can be made to operate in a wider range of tire pressures, clincher wheels are easier to service, for example in the case of a punture.
		However a number of wheel manufacturers are now producing wheels with roughly half the spokes of a top of the line traditional wheel from the 1980's, with approximately the same rotational inertia and less total weight.

		From this design stemmed the idea of the spoked wheel, consisting of a hub-with an axle hole, felloes (a felloe is one section of the rim of a wheel) and the spokes themselves.
		Our wagon wheel, with a well fitting, continuous iron tire, is the result of taking an iron hoop slightly smaller than the wheel and heating the iron until it expands enough to girdle the wheel.
		Punctures, the tire coming off the wheel, and the tube being pinched accounted for the majority of blow-outs, which required that the tire be removed from the wheel, and a spare placed on the wheel.

		Although on the face of it the same wheel of numbers seems to be a very simple design but arrangement of numbers and characteristics has been done in such a manner that ensures the random element of the game.
		The wheel is typically a bowl that is divided into separate compartments by slanted walls, which are sufficiently large to old the marble once it comes to rest after the spin.

	Wheel Alignment A Short Course
		In its most basic form, a wheel alignment consists of adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other.
		When the wheel is behind the pivot at the point where it contacts the ground, it is in positive caster.
		Assuming that the steering wheel stays in the same position when you let go of the wheel (in other words, the car is not pulling), then steering center is controlled by the front and rear toe settings.

	The Annotated Wheel
		In the midst of all this is suspended a wheel of ten spokes, according to the number of the Sephiroth, and of the sphere of Malkuth, indicating governance of physical affairs.
		She was identified with the Greek Tyche, and she was often depicted with a rudder, as the pilot of destiny, with wings, or with a wheel.
		The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel." --Chapter 1, vv.

	Wheel [encyclopedia] (Site not responding. Last check: )
		A wheel is a disc- or torus-shaped object, the fundamental operation of which is to transfer linear motion (that is, going along) into rotary motion (that is, going around).
		Wheels can be fastened on a wheel axle, which when fitted to a third object such as a vehicle body, will efficiently impart the energy of the converted linear motion to that body.
		In July 2001, the wheel was the object of an innovative, but non-inventive, patent as a "circular transportation facilitation device" [http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/world/asia-pacific/newsid_1418000/1418165.stm].

		The Ferris Wheel was the engineering highlight of the exposition and one of the most pervasive, lasting influences of the 1893 fair.
		The wheel itself had a diameter of 250 feet, a circumference of 825 feet, and the maximum height was 264 feet.
		The wheel was dismantled in mid-1894, after the fair, and reused at the St. Louis exposition in 1904.

	Star Knowledge 5, Bighorn Medicine Wheel, 1
		--This color photo of the Bighorn Wheel, was supplied by the U.S. Forest Service Bighorn district office is taken (probably in the late 1970's) looking due east (there is a red east marker at the edge of the windswept bare shoulder's stepped drop-off).
		Prints of the fl and white photos of the Medicine Wheel were given to me by a U.S. forest service secretary at the Bighorn National Forest office in Lovell, Wyoming, on the day of the solstice, 1978, when I visited that office before going up on the wheel for the night.
		The color photo of the wheel was recently sent me by the Bighorn office of the forest Service, but seems to have been taken some years ago, perhaps in the late '70's or early '80's; photographer and date were not identified.

	Wheel History - Invention of the Wheel
		A wheel with spokes first appeared on Egyptian chariots around 2000 BC, and wheels seem to have developed in Europe by 1400 BC without any influence from the Middle East.
		However, with the coming of the Industrial Revolution the wheel became the central component of technology, and came to be used in thousands of ways in countless different mechanisms.
		In Wheels, writer and illustrator Edwin Tunis traces the development of the wheel over 5,000 years, his accurate drawings and lucid text depicting the human victory over space and inertia.

		According to color theory, harmonious color combinations use any two colors opposite each other on the color wheel, any three colors equally spaced around the color wheel forming a triangle, or any four colors forming a rectangle (actually, two pairs of colors opposite each other).
