The arrangement allows the helicopter to function without the need for a tail rotor . This configuration is sometimes referred to as a synchropter .

Single rotor helicopters need a tail rotor to neutralize the twisting moment produced by the single large rotor. Tandem rotor helicopters, however, use counter rotating rotors, with each canceling out the other s torque. Counter rotating rotor blades won t collide with and destroy each other if they flex into the other rotor s pathway. This configuration also has the advantage of being able to hold more weight with shorter blades, since there are two sets.

The club was formed in 1971 to provide hard to get spare parts and to give advice on topics such as safety and maintenance. Today it is an organisation with members in many parts of the world. Rallies are held in several countries, and include social events, visits to places of special interest and probably most importantly, tandem rides. These range from short family outings to a local play area to rides of 80 miles or more in an area with challenging terrain. There are more than 40 regional officers in the UK alone who organise local events such as rides and local rallies. The Tandem Club also encourages using tandems as a safe and effiecient mode of transport, especially for children and the disabled.

  1. Tandem gait

    Tandem gait is a gait method of walking or running where the toes of the back foot touch the heel of the front foot at each step. Neurologist s sometimes ask patients to walk in a straight line using tandem gait as a test to help diagnose ataxia , especially truncal ataxia , because sufferers of these disorders will have an unsteady gait. However, the results are not definitive, because many disorders or problems can cause unsteady gait such as vision difficulties and problems with the motor neurons or associative Cerebellar cortex cortex . Therefore, inability to walk correctly in tandem gait does not prove the presence of ataxia. References http www.neuroexam.com content.php?p 38 Category Neurology med stub ...   more details

  1. Tandem-charge

    A tandem charge weapon is an explosive device or projectile that has two or more stages of detonation. It is effective against cage armor as well as explosive reactive armor which is designed to protect an armored vehicle mostly tanks against Anti tank warfare anti tank arsenal. ref http www.defenseindustrydaily.com baes lrod cage armor 03473 BAE s Lrod Cage Armor Defense Industry Daily Bot generated title ref The first stage of the weapon triggers the reactive armor of the target, limiting the attack s effectiveness. However, after the reactive armor has protected the vehicle from the primary attack, it is no longer reactive in that location since reactive armour is primarily a one time defense solution and the location is left more vulnerable. The second detonation from the same projectile which defines it as a tandem charge attacks the same location as the first detonation where the reactive armor has been compromised. Since the regular armor plating is often the only defense remaining, the tandem charge second detonation has an increased likelihood of penetrating the armor. However, tandem charges are useful only against ERA and SLERA self limiting explosive reactive armor types of reactive armor, not against the Reactive armour Non explosive and non energetic reactive armour NERA non energetic reactive armor and Reactive armour Non explosive and non energetic reactive armour NxRA non explosive reactive armor reactive armor types, since their inner liner is not explosive itself, thus able to withstand the small forward warhead of tandem charge attack. The PG 7VR warhead for the RPG 7 rocket launcher and the more modern RPG 29 rocket are examples of tandem charges. Additionally, many American missiles use the tandem charges because they were designed in the Cold War era to counter the reactive armor that was a common feature on Soviet tanks. Examples of American missiles that use tandem charges include the BGM 71 TOW , FGM 148 Javelin and the AGM 114 Hellfire . See ...   more details

  1. Tandem selection

    Tandem selection is a method of artificial selection in which useful traits are selected for sequentially. For instance, one could select for both increased milk Crop yield yield and increased milk fat content in cow s via tandem selection by first selecting those with the best of one trait, say those that produce highest milk yield, and then when that trait is at a satisfactory level, by starting to select for those cows that produce milk with the greatest milk fat content instead. However, for cows to produce milk with greater fat content, yield may have to go down due to, perhaps, limits of the cows metabolism . So, while you are selecting for cows which have increased milk fat content, the yield of milk they are producing may also go down, thus reversing the selection process previously performed to increase it. Therefore, tandem selection has a major disadvantage to other major types of artificial selection for multiple traits, such as culling and index selection , as there is a tendency for the last trait to be lost as the next is being selected.
