悬臂, 仅一端固定在墙上的长金属或木条
a long metal or wooden bar that is fixed to a wall at just one end and sticks out of it, used to hold a structure such as a bridge or shelf in place
A cantilever is a structural element that is supported at one end while extending horizontally beyond that support, creating an overhanging section. This design allows the cantilever to carry loads without additional support beneath it, making it useful for various applications, such as balconies, bridges, and roofs. Cantilevers rely on careful engineering to ensure stability and strength, as the unsupported portion experiences tension and bending forces. This innovative approach can create open spaces and unique architectural designs while effectively distributing weight to the supported end. Proper design and construction are essential to ensure the safety and functionality of cantilevered structures.

悬臂, 花样滑冰中的一个动作，滑冰者用一条腿水平倾斜
a move in figure skating where the skater leans out horizontally from one leg
A cantilever in figure skating is a move where the skater bends their knees and arches their back, with their upper body leaning backward and parallel to the ice. The skater's body creates a dramatic curve, and the position can be enhanced by either keeping the hands on the ice for balance or extending them in the air for added elegance. This move requires significant strength, flexibility, and control to maintain the deep backward bend while gliding across the ice. The cantilever is a striking element that showcases the skater's balance and ability to perform complex, visually dramatic positions.
