What is a trust angle?

A trust angle is not an obtuse angel, not an acute angle, not a right angle, or any other kind of angle I can imagine. So therefore it must be some new species of angle that has some how evolved, as Darwin's Theory thusly applied to modern math would have us believe... And why do people still believe Darwin? <><><> Is it possible you mean THRUST angle? If so, you are the victim of a question being in the wrong category- math, instead of automotive. THRUST angle refers to a form of wheel alignment on a vehicle- rather than simply aligning each tire in relation to the lines of the frame, the tires are aligned to an imaginary line of the thrust applied to the frame. Ordinary alignment is good in theory, but thrust angle alignment has tires aligned for a real world setting. Perhaps a REAL mechanic can improve my layman's definition.

Does a front wheel drive car need back wheel alignment?

If it is out of specification the rear, yes. If it is in specification, no. Makes sense, doesn't it! Some cars have adjustable alignment angles in the rear, and do indeed call for a four-wheel alignment. On many cars, there are no rear adjustments, but the front wheels should be aligned with respect to the rear, what is properly called a thrust-angle alignment. Unfortunately, many shops are not careful with their terminology and use the term "four-wheel alignment" when they really mean "thrust-angle alignment." Even so, they usually correctly distinguish between cars that have alignable rear ends and those that don't, and price the job accordingly. As to whether your car has an alignable rear end, you'll need to refer to a shop manual to find out.

Are thrust loads at a right angle to a shaft?

On a ships propeller shaft, the thrust will be in line with the axis of the shaft.


A thrust fault is a what fault with a shallow angle?

A thrust fault is a reverse fault with a shallow angle. It occurs when compressional forces cause the hanging wall to move up and over the footwall along a low-angle fault plane. Thrust faults are common in areas undergoing mountain-building processes.


Is a thrust fault the same as normal fault?

No. A thrust fault is a reverse fault with a dip angle of less than 45 degrees.
