Helix angle the helix angle. The efficiency can be plotted versus the helix angle for a constant friction, as shown in the adjacent diagram. The maximum efficiency is a helix angle between 40 and 45 degrees, however a reasonable efficiency is achieved above 15°. Due to difficulties in forming the thread, helix angle greater than 30° are rarely used. Moreover, above 30° the friction angle becomes smaller than the helix angle and the nut is no longer self-locking and the mechanical advantage disappears. In helical and worm gears, the helix angle denotes the standard pitch circle unless otherwise specified. Application of the
Larger than Life (album) "Real Love" and "Friends", Watley embarked on a U.S. summer tour to support the album. Setlist Shows Singles End of Year Charts Larger than Life (album) Larger Than Life is the second studio album by American singer Jody Watley, released by MCA Records on March 27, 1989. "Cymone remains as slickly up to the minute as ever," observed "Q"'s Mark Cooper, "filling his enormous rhythm sound with hip-hop references… Occasionally Watley lets the pose slip and slips into a passively sensuous ballad like 'Everything', but mostly she keeps acting stroppy. Perhaps she's annoyed at the lack of any tune to
