Can a spear beat a sword?
More often than not the spear is superior to the sword. Spears have more leverage, are nimble, are better against armor, pack more of a punch on the thrust, and most importantly they have more reach. Even an inexperienced spearman can defeat a skilled swordsman.
Can you slice with a spear?
You might use the spear to cut, just as a sword can be used as a bludgeoning weapon, but you’re not using the weapon in the main ways it was designed to function. I suspect historically that very few spear wounds were caused by lacerations with a spear.
Can Spears slash?
A spear is a stabbing weapon, which is inherently a very difficult attack to defend against. It also has a length advantage, so you can stab, but the other guy can’t. The problem is, the sword can likely cut through the shaft of the spear, leaving you with a bo staff.
What is the best weapon in Minecraft?
Netherite Sword + Sharpness Swords are the most popular melee weapons in Minecraft and definitely makes the list for the best weapons in Minecraft. The netherite sword is among the best and can be made even stronger in the damage department with the Sharpness Enchantment.
What is the most critical failure mode of a lug?
For ratios of e/D less than 1.5, the hole is close to the edge of the lug and so shear-out and hoop tension are likely to be the most critical failure modes. For larger values of e/D, the hole is spaced farther from the edge and so bearing is likely to be the critical failure mode.
What is the design ultimate load for an axially loaded lug?
The design ultimate load for an axially loaded lug is the minimum of the ultimate bearing load, the ultimate bushing load, and the ultimate net-section load: P u.L.B = min (P bru.L, P u.B, P nu.L)
What are the lug ultimate and yield bearing stresses?
F bru.L and F bry.L are the lug ultimate and yield bearing stresses, respectively, and are given by the following equations: For ratios of e/D less than 1.5, the hole is close to the edge of the lug and so shear-out and hoop tension are likely to be the most critical failure modes.
What is the Air Force method of lug analysis?
The Air Force Method of lug analysis is widely used in industry and is documented in the Stress Analysis Manual of the Air Force Flight Dynamics Laboratory (FDL). This method follows closely with the methods presented in Melcon & Hoblit and Bruhn, and it relies heavily on curves generated by empirical data.
