  2. Direct TPMS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_TPMS

    Direct TPMS, or direct tire pressure monitoring systems (direct sensor TPMS) refers to the use of a pressure sensor directly mounted on the wheels or tires of a vehicle. The pressure inside the tire is measured using a pressure transducer with the pressure information being subsequently sent to the vehicle to warn the driver of under or over inflation of a tire.

  3. Tire-pressure monitoring system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_monitoring...

    A tire-pressure monitoring system ( TPMS) monitors the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on vehicles. [1] A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver, using either a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types – direct (dTPMS) and indirect (iTPMS).

    16:9. 8,294,400. 7680 × 4320. 8K UHDTV. 4320p. 33,177,600. Many of these resolutions are also used for video files that are not broadcast. These may also use other aspect ratios by cropping otherwise black bars at the top and bottom which result from cinema aspect ratios greater than 16∶9, such as 1.85 or 2.35 through 2.40 (dubbed ...

  5. Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance

    Rolling resistance, sometimes called rolling friction or rolling drag, is the force resisting the motion when a body (such as a ball, tire, or wheel) rolls on a surface. It is mainly caused by non-elastic effects; that is, not all the energy needed for deformation (or movement) of the wheel, roadbed, etc., is recovered when the pressure is removed.

  6. Slip ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_ratio

    Slip ratio is a means of calculating and expressing the slipping behavior of the wheel of an automobile.It is of fundamental importance in the field of vehicle dynamics, as it allows to understand the relationship between the deformation of the tire and the longitudinal forces (i.e. the forces responsible for forward acceleration and braking) acting upon it.

  7. Basal metabolic rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basal_metabolic_rate

    Basal metabolic rate. Basal metabolic rate ( BMR) is the rate of energy expenditure per unit time by endothermic animals at rest. [1] It is reported in energy units per unit time ranging from watt (joule/second) to ml O 2 /min or joule per hour per kg body mass J/ (h·kg). Proper measurement requires a strict set of criteria to be met.

  8. Tire-derived fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-derived_fuel

    Tire-derived fuel. Used tires in foreground waiting to be shredded and shredded tires in background. Tire-derived fuel (TDF) is composed of shredded scrap tires. Tires may be mixed with coal or other fuels, such as wood or chemical wastes, to be burned in concrete kilns, power plants, or paper mills. An EPA test program concluded that, with the ...
