A universal joint (universal coupling, U-joint, Cardan joint, Spicer or Hardy Spicer joint, or Hooke's joint) is a joint or coupling in a rigid rod that allows the rod to "bend" in any direction, and is commonly used in shafts that transmit rotary motion.

It consists of a pair of hinges located close together, oriented at 90° to each other, connected by a cross shaft.

The universal joint is not a constant-velocity joint.

Torque, moment, or moment of force (see the below) is rotational force.

Just as a linear force is a push or a pull, a torque can be thought of as a.

A coupling is a device used to connect two shafts together at their ends for the purpose of transmitting power.

Couplings do not normally allow disconnection of shafts during operation, however there are torque limiting couplings which can slip or disconnect when some torque limit is exceeded.

In control engineering a servomechanism, sometimes shortened to servo, is an automatic device that uses error-sensing negative feedback to correct the action of a mechanism.

It usually includes a built-in encoder or other position feedback mechanism to ensure the output is achieving the desired effect.

A beam is a structural element that primarily resists loads applied laterally to the beam's axis.

Its mode of deflection is primarily by bending.

The loads applied to the beam result in reaction forces at the beam's support points.

The total effect of all the forces acting on the beam is to produce shear forces and bending moments within the beam, that in turn induce internal stresses, strains and deflections of the beam.

Beams are characterized by their manner of support, profile (shape of cross-section), length, and their material.
