An exponential space elevator is a space elevator with a tether cross-section that varies exponentially with altitude. With such an elevator it is possible to reel in tether material at one end of the elevator while reeling out at the other end, with...
An accelerating elevator changes the apparent weight of any object inside it from the original weight, as measured inside the elevator, because the acceleration causes an inertial force on it. For any object in a running elevator, the variation of th...
An elevator pitch, elevator speech, lift speech, or elevator statement is a short description of an idea, product, or company that explains the concept

Elevators can be regarded as oscillators driven by the calls of passengers who arrive randomly. We study the dynamic behavior of elevators during the down peak period numerically and analytically. We assume that new passengers arrive at each floor ac...
We simulate the dynamical behavior of M elevators serving N floors of a building in which a Poisson distribution of persons call elevators. Our simulation reproduces the jamming effect typically seen in large buildings when a large number of person...
Elevator is an open source, on-disk key-value store. Provides high-performance bulk read-write operations over very large datasets while exposing a simple and efficient API. (⭐ 70)
Redundant elevators are additional elevators installed to guarantee greater accessibility of buildings and public transportation systems in the event that
The concept of a space elevator dates back to Tsilokovsky, but they are not commonly considered in near-term plans for space exploration, perhaps because a terrestrial elevator would not be possible without considerable improvements in tether materia...
