Abstract: A front structure of a motor vehicle increases the energy transfer and dissipation thereof within the front structure upon impact with another object. The front structure includes right and left front side frame members (12, 14) each having a front end (24,26). Right and left front spring hangers (34, 36) extend downward from the front side frame members at a point substantially adjacent to the front ends and each include a bottom end (58) having a mounting flange (56) thereon. A cross member (20) extends transversely within the motor vehicle, having right and left cross member ends (62) attached to the mounting flange (56).

Abstract: A gas turbine engine is operated from a gaseous fuel supply whose pressure may occasionally drop from a normal and comparatively high value. The acceleration limit schedule for the engine is established as a function of compressor discharge pressure but this schedule is modified as a function of fuel supply pressure so that, when lower than normal supply pressures exist, the engine may develop substantially the maximum power which is possible at the lower supply pressures.
