A mangonel is the perfect example of a torsion engine. The drive provided to this ancient catapult comes from a mass of twisted ropes which create torsion and when released provide the energy required to hurl whatever it is you wish.
an example is a ruler being twisted between both hands
Torsion
An example of torsion force is the twisting of a screw or a bolt to tighten or loosen it. This twisting force causes the object to rotate around its axis.
The torsion in the bridge's cables helped support its weight during high winds.
Vehicle does not have torsion bars
The four internal forces that act on structures are tension, compression, shear, and torsion. Tension: This force stretches a material. Example: The cables in a suspension bridge experience tension forces. Compression: This force squeezes a material. Example: The columns in a building experience compression forces. Shear: This force causes parts of a material to slide past each other in opposite directions. Example: Cutting a piece of paper with scissors involves shear forces. Torsion: This force twists a material. Example: Twisting a wire involves torsion forces.
Instead of using coil springs on the front suspension torsion bars are used from the lower control arms to the frame ( my 1995 Ford Explorer 4x4 has torsion bars , my dads 73 Dodge Coronet had torsion bars ) If you look at a lower front suspension that has torsion bars you will see the torsion bars going from the lower control arms rearward
Spraining your ankle is typically caused by a torsion force, which is a twisting force that causes the ligaments in the ankle to stretch or tear.
A Dodge Ram does not have torsion bars.
The tundra does not have torsion bars, buy a lift.
I'm pretty sure that only 4WD trucks have torsion bars.
