limb mass
A very rare or technical term for the physical mass of a limb, that is, an arm or leg. Usually it is a misspelling of 'Gliedmaße' (limb/body part).
In der biomechanischen Studie wurde die Gliedmasse des Sprungbeins exakt berechnet.
In the biomechanical study, the limb mass of the ankle bone was calculated precisely.
The word is made up of 'Glied' (limb/body part, such as an arm or leg) and 'Masse' (mass, a physical property). It literally means the physical mass of a body part.
Für die Prothese musste die Gliedmasse des Patienten genau bestimmt werden.
For the prosthesis, the patient's limb mass had to be determined precisely.
A common mistake is to use this word for a body part such as an arm or leg. However, 'Gliedmasse' (limb mass) refers only to its physical mass and not to the body part itself.
Der Roboterarm wurde so konstruiert, dass er die Gliedmasse eines menschlichen Arms simulieren kann.
The robotic arm was designed so that it can simulate the limb mass of a human arm.
This word is extremely rare and is used almost exclusively in very specific technical contexts such as biomechanics or physics.
Die Formel berücksichtigt die Gliedmasse zur Berechnung der benötigten Kraft.
The formula takes the limb mass into account to calculate the required force.
