Yes, my equipment uses HP and ft lbs.
line for improved output at the flywheel in the next gear.
None of the articles you linked to really affirm that peak torque gives best in gear acceleration.

The tunnelers would have a high old time avoiding all the mustard gas, munitions and nuclear waste dumped there.
Wasn't that mainly off the north western part of Ireland? It was supposed to be dumped in a deep trough way out but the ship dumped the stuff nearer to save fuel thinking no one would get to know.
Can't really count the 3 as it wasn't flying.
The line would open up new territory.
So can I. New frontiers. Discovering new lands. You can go all the way to Canada as well.
but not change the climate
You're a bigger twerp than I thought - if that's possible.
Discover new lands, eh? So this train would be for people who've never heard of Greenland or the Faeroes?
Yep, like you.

I was thinking of Bungo.
Well, no, they wouldn't. That's because they carefully explain that the best acceleration is found by changing down to get your engine near the power peak.
I've just checked back; you're the guy who got peak in-gear acceleration _above_ the peak torque, which makes no sense to me. I'd confused you with those who think that changing down to get to peak power won't help.

haha!
It's actually the first time I've realised that they're all named after places.
Tee hee. Did you just watch it on telly or something rather than read the books? They mentioned the coming-of-age type ceremony where they get to choose their names out of Great Uncle Bulgaria's atlas quite a few times in the books.
(Bungo chose his by closing his eyes and pointing randomly. Yes, I probably know rather too much about this subject.)
Oh... yes, I only ever saw the TV version :-( Still, even that was light years ahead of the crap they show these days...
The space rockets (the US bought the engines they were so much better than the US engines), first satellites, men in space, animal in space, vehicle on the Moon, skylabs, the MIG 29, T-34 tank, AK-47 gun, cathode ray tube, etc.
So optimism should be high.
Maybe no satellite TV.
There's little point in changing down if the lower gear puts the engine near the power peak as with most engines that's close to the maximum revs. So you won't be able to accelerate much before changing up.
