parallel motion

He moved his free hand in a parallel motion.

The melodies of the two hands sometimes move in parallel motion, but often play contrapuntally.

The cylinders act on one end of the beam, via Watt's parallel motion.

The chords move in parallel motion similar to Debussy.

This simplified the need for a parallel motion linkage on the piston rod.

The parallel motion of the stars in this group implies a common origin, and hence a similar age and composition.

Also see the article Parallel motion.

Parallel motion is motion in the same direction, keeping the same interval between them.

To bridge the conflicting actions of the beam and the piston, Watt developed his parallel motion.

Asymmetrical masking between radial and parallel motion flow in transparent displays.

Twentieth century developments include the parallel motion drawing board, and more complicated improvements on the basic T-square.

A pitch angle of 0 degrees is a particle whose parallel motion is perfectly along the local magnetic field.

The first one was in 1989 by Ross Lewis named Parallel Motion.

What therefore happens is that energy is converted, from the part associated with the parallel motion v to the perpendicular part.

Watt designed the parallel motion to transmit force in both directions whilst keeping the piston rod vertical.

He called it "parallel motion" because both the piston and the pump rod were required to move vertically, parallel to one another.

The melodies (especially in fast music) are built on short, choppy, bluesy phrases played in unison or parallel motion.

Since the magnetic Lorentz force is always perpendicular to the magnetic field, it has no influence (to lowest order) on the parallel motion.

The piston crossheads worked in guides, rather than being controlled by parallel motion like the majority of early locomotives.

Similar and oblique motion provide less independence than contrary motion, but more than parallel motion.

It was startling to hear modal harmonies moving in unabashed parallel motion, smashing Western protocols of voice-leading along the way.

This results in the correct motion at the yoke end with parallel motion of the connecting rod with its construction axis.

"Dissonant mostly whole-tone chords rise and fall in parallel motion to suggest the snow drifts and the hills."

April 28 - James Watt receives a British patent for his parallel motion and other improvements to the steam engine.

The parallel motion differed from Watt's linkage by having an additional pantograph linkage incorporated in the design.
