The Abbott-Firestone curve was first described by Ernest James Abbott and Floyd Firestone in 1933. [3] [4] It is useful for understanding the properties of sealing and bearing surfaces. It is commonly used in the engineering and manufacturing of piston cylinder bores of internal combustion engines. [5]
English: Dependency between roughness profile (left), amplitude probability (center) and Abbott-Firestone curve (right), also called the Bearing Area Curve (BAC). Deutsch: Abhängigkeit zwischen Rauheitsprofil (links), Amplitudenverteilung (mitte) und Abbott-Firestone-Kurve (rechts), auch Traganteilskurve genannt.
Sketches depicting surfaces with negative and positive skew. The roughness trace is on the left, the amplitude distribution curve is in the middle, and the bearing area curve (Abbott-Firestone curve) is on the right.
It is the first international standard taking into account the specification and measurement of 3D surface texture. In particular, the standard defines 3D surface texture parameters and the associated specification operators.

House Speaker Mike Johnson has ordered that flags at the U.S. Capitol be raised to their full height on Jan. 20 for the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump, dismissing a White House order.
The bathtub curve is a particular shape of a failure rate graph. This graph is used in reliability engineering and deterioration modeling. The 'bathtub' refers to the shape of a line that curves up at both ends, similar in shape to a bathtub. The bathtub curve has 3 regions: The first region has a decreasing failure rate due to early failures.
From January 2008 to December 2012, if you bought shares in companies when Miles D. White joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a 3.2 percent return on your investment, compared to a -2.8 percent return from the S&P 500.
