Re: Flywheels achieving linear motion
This is sort of along the same lines as gniticxe's idea, but what about making the disk with teeth, something like a saw blade. Then, you push the rod toward the disk and it catches on the teeth.
Or, if your rod has relatively low inertia (and friction), you could use a friction disk to connect the flywheel to your rod assembly. Same idea as the clutch on a car, but with a thrusting rod of death.
