Seite 179 - ellipsoid, which is of such significance in the theory of the rotation of a rigid body about a fixed point, is presented in the Theory of Screws as a particular case of another ellipsoid, called the ellipsoid of inertia, which is of great importance in connexion with the general screw
Seite 14 - use the phrase, wrench on a screw, meaning thereby, a force directed along the screw and a couple in a plane perpendicular to the screw, the moment of the couple being equal to the product of the force and the pitch of the screw. Hence we may state that The canonical form to which

Seite 312 - Let a be a screw about which a free rigid body is made to twist in consequence of an impulsive wrench administered on some other screw 77. Except in the case where a and 17 are reciprocal, it will always be possible (in many different ways) to design and place a rigid body so that two arbitrarily chosen screws a and
