Foot placement estimator
The foot placement estimator (FPE) is a measure of balance for bipedal robots that computes where the swing foot must step to stop a fall.
Foot rotation indicator
The foot rotation indicator (FRI) point is a stability criterion for biped robots: a point that may leave the support polygon, indicating impending foot rotation. It was introduced by Ambarish Goswami in 1999.
Foot switch
A foot switch is a pedal-actuated electrical switch that starts, stops, or modulates a machine by foot, used on sewing machines, medical equipment, and guitar amplifiers.
Footbridge
A footbridge, also called a pedestrian overpass or overcrossing, is a bridge that carries pedestrians, and sometimes cyclists, over roads, railways, or rivers without vehicular traffic.
Footbridge safety and failure patterns
Footbridge safety and failure patterns describe how pedestrian walking forces, at roughly 1.0–3.0 Hz, can resonate with footbridges, making vibration serviceability, not strength, the frequent governing design check.
Footbridges in China
Footbridges in China span two traditions: modern urban pedestrian overpasses and ancient covered timber bridges, with more than 3,000 timber corridor bridges (langqiao).
Footbridges in Japan
Footbridges in Japan are pedestrian bridges, about 11,235 nationwide, mostly built in the 1955 to 1973 high-growth era and now aging, with removal an active policy option.
Footbridges in the United Kingdom
Footbridges in the United Kingdom are bridges carrying pedestrians over roads, railways, or water. Britain's railway network alone has almost 2,400, most owned by Network Rail.
Foothills Parkway
The Foothills Parkway is a 72-mile scenic parkway along the Tennessee side of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, authorized by Congress in 1944 and still unfinished.
Foothills System Gas Pipeline
The Foothills System is a TC Energy natural gas pipeline carrying western Canadian gas from Caroline, Alberta, to US border points at Kingsgate, British Columbia, and Monchy, Saskatchewan.
Footstep planning
Footstep planning is the task of computing a sequence of foot placements that carries a legged robot to a goal while avoiding obstacles and loss of balance.
Footwear
Footwear is a garment worn on the feet for protection, comfort, and decoration. The oldest known leather shoe, the Areni-1 shoe from Armenia, dates to about 5,500 years ago.
For loop
A for loop is a programming structure that repeats a block of statements a definite number of times, with counter, test, and update written in one header.
For the Moment (film)
For the Moment is a 1993 Canadian romantic war drama directed by Aaron Kim Johnston, starring Russell Crowe as an Australian airman training on the Canadian prairies in 1942.
Forbidden City (紫禁城)
The Forbidden City (紫禁城) is the former imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties in central Beijing, home to 24 emperors from 1420 until the monarchy ended in 1912.
Förbifart Stockholm
Förbifart Stockholm, or Stockholm bypass, is a 21-kilometer E4 motorway being built west of Stockholm, about 18 kilometers in tunnel, to relieve the Essingeleden, opening fully in 2030.
Forcados Oil Terminal
The Forcados Oil Terminal is a Nigerian crude oil export terminal in the western Niger Delta, commissioned by Shell in 1971 to load the Forcados Blend grade.
Forcados Yokri Oil and Gas Field
Forcados Yokri is an oil and gas field in the Niger Delta of Nigeria, operated by Shell and among the largest in the NNPC/Shell joint venture.
Force closure (grasping)
Force closure in robotic grasping is the property that a set of contacts can balance any external wrench, with each contact force obeying friction and unilateral constraints.
Force distribution problem
The force distribution problem in robotics is choosing contact forces and joint torques for a grasping or multi-legged robot so it stays in equilibrium within friction and torque limits.
Force Gurkha
The Force Gurkha, also called the Force Motors Gurkha, is a four-wheel-drive off-road SUV from Force Motors of Pune, India, styled after the Mercedes-Benz Gelandewagen and offered in 3-door and 5-door versions.
Force manipulability ellipsoid
The force manipulability ellipsoid is a robotics descriptor, introduced by Tsuneo Yoshikawa in the 1980s, showing the forces a manipulator can exert for a given joint configuration.
Force method (structural analysis)
The force method, also called the flexibility method, is a classical structural analysis technique that finds forces in statically indeterminate structures by treating redundant forces as unknowns.
Force Motors
Force Motors, formerly Bajaj Tempo, is an Indian automobile manufacturer founded in 1958 and based near Pune, best known for the Traveller van and Gurkha off-roader and for making engines for BMW and Mercedes-Benz in India.
Force reflection
Force reflection is the practice of feeding a remote robot's contact forces back to the human operator's hand controller, so the operator physically feels resistance at a distance.
Force spinning
Force spinning, also called centrifugal or rotary jet spinning, is a fiber fabrication method in which a rotating spinneret expels polymer into micro- and nanofibers far faster than electrospinning.
FORCE Technology
FORCE Technology is a Danish non-profit technology consultancy and service institute, one of the seven government-approved GTS institutes, founded in 1941 as the welding center Dansk Svejsecentral.
