leonardo da vinci knew that to five hundred years ago your systems haven't changed all that much since then. just take a few gear wheels and a few different sizes and you're sad. but perhaps there is a way to improve traditional gear boxes for hundreds of years engineers and builders that said no. but. we're undeterred. they thought it might be possible after all and went back to the drawing board. years have been around for a very long time and have been tweaked and optimized over the years we wanted to do something revolutionary a leap forward. when it comes to gear boxes what would a revolution look like one basic form of care boxes called in at the cyclic or planetary gear as the name implies it's reminiscent of our solar system the sun gear in the center rotates quickly setting the planet years in motion the planet here is rotate more slowly than the sun. but there's a problem along with changing the speed of rotation a gearbox has another job to do it has to increase turning force or torque. these forces are transmitted by the teeth that touch one another like here here and here

and what this is about is to eu countries having a spat over leonardo da vinci. social disruption in france is it it is because of the five star movement. that is part of the reason why. but the leader of the reason why. but the leader of the five star movement, they offered support to the french yellow vest protesters. the french yellow vest protesters. the french have taken umbrage at this and this has caused a diplomatic spat. if the italians want to do her own, let them do their own exhibition. that is the thing. part of the problem is that the italians, because they were too busy dealing with other things, did not actually realise that leonardo's anniversary was coming and they messed it all up. they are now angry that the french are way ahead of them but are also making out that the french never allow the mona lisa to leave frantz. is there anything we would never let go from this country? —— to leave frantz. —— france. is there nothing we hold so sacred? henry viii ‘s? nothing we hold so sacred? henry viii 's? the crown jewels. so we are protectionist? con

here at the ulster museum in belfast give a sense of the extraordinary range of interests that leonardo da vinci, from costume design to extreme weather effects and of course, famously, his detailed analysis of the human body, with images which are still well regarded today. but are they accurate, ian? they certainly are, will. if you look at the level of the anatomical detail here, it is equal to any standard surgical text in the modern era. more importantly, he's somehow picked up the functionality of these muscles and imbued them with life. the display here at the kelvingrove art gallery and museum in glasgow shows the two sides of leonardo. on the one hand, you have the fine artist who's interested in modelling form in really delicate detail using light and shade. on the other hand, you've got leonardo the engineer, who's interested in the movement of a horse and in designing weapons or fanciful war machines, as he called them. and he also liked to make maps such as this one of the central region of italy, including the arno valley where he was born. these, he made to support his architectur
