Linkage (mechanical) Variable stroke engine (Autocar Handbook, Ninth edition) A mechanical linkage is an assembly of systems connected so as to manage forces and movement. The movement of a body, or link, is studied using geometry so the link is considered to be rigid. [ 1] The connections between links are modeled as providing ideal movement ...
Chainlink is a decentralized blockchain oracle network built on Ethereum. [ 3][ 4] The network is intended to be used to facilitate the transfer of tamper-proof data from off-chain sources to on-chain smart contracts. Its creators claim it can be used to verify whether the parameters of a smart contract are met in a manner independent from any ...
Mnemonic link system. A mnemonic link system, sometimes also known as a chain method, is a method of remembering lists that is based on creating an association between the elements of that list. For example, when memorizing the list (dog, envelope, thirteen, yarn, window), one could create a story about a "dog stuck in an envelope, mailed to an ...
A model of the human skeleton as a kinematic chain allows positioning using forward and inverse kinematics. In mechanical engineering, a kinematic chain is an assembly of rigid bodies connected by joints to provide constrained motion that is the mathematical model for a mechanical system. [ 1] As the word chain suggests, the rigid bodies, or ...
The Hudson River Chains were a series of chain booms constructed across the Hudson River at West Point by Continental Army forces from 1776 to 1778 during the American Revolutionary War. These served as defenses preventing British naval vessels from sailing upriver and were overseen by the Highlands Department of the Continental Army .
A series of devices connected in a daisy chain layout. In electrical and electronic engineering, a daisy chain is a wiring scheme in which multiple devices are wired together in sequence or in a ring, [ 1] similar to a garland of daisy flowers. Daisy chains may be used for power, analog signals, digital data, or a combination thereof.
The chain of survival refers to a series of actions that, properly executed, reduce the mortality associated with sudden cardiac arrest. Like any chain, the chain of survival is only as strong as its weakest link. [ 1][ 2] The six interdependent links in the chain of survival are early recognition of sudden cardiac arrest and access to ...
