  2. Shelford's law of tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shelford's_Law_of_Tolerance

    The law of tolerance, or theory of tolerance, is best illustrated by a bell shaped curve. The range of the optimum. Tolerance ranges are not necessarily fixed. They can change as: Seasons change. Environmental conditions change. Life stage of the organism changes. Example – blue crabs. The eggs and larvae require higher salinity than adults.

  3. Engineering tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_tolerance

    For example, if a shaft with a nominal diameter of 10 mm is to have a sliding fit within a hole, the shaft might be specified with a tolerance range from 9.964 to 10 mm (i.e., a zero fundamental deviation, but a lower deviation of 0.036 mm) and the hole might be specified with a tolerance range from 10.04 mm to 10.076 mm (0.04 mm fundamental ...

  4. IT Grade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IT_Grade

    Standard tolerance grades are a group of tolerances for linear sizes characterized by a common identifier. For SI measurements, a system of tolerance grades defined in ISO 286 is frequently used and identified by the letters IT followed by a number specifying how precise the requirements are, relative to the nominal size of a part.

  5. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    Parts-per notation is often used describing dilute solutions in chemistry, for instance, the relative abundance of dissolved minerals or pollutants in water.The quantity "1 ppm" can be used for a mass fraction if a water-borne pollutant is present at one-millionth of a gram per gram of sample solution.

  6. Tolerance interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolerance_interval

    A tolerance interval (TI) is a statistical interval within which, with some confidence level, a specified sampled proportion of a population falls. "More specifically, a 100×p%/100×(1−α) tolerance interval provides limits within which at least a certain proportion (p) of the population falls with a given level of confidence (1−α)."

  7. Threshold dose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_dose

    For the drugs administered by oral and dermal route, the units of threshold dose are mg/kg body-weight/day (dose of the drug in mg per body weight in kg per day) or ppm (parts per million), while the threshold dose of drugs by inhalation delivery has the unit of mg/L 6h/day (amount of drug in mg in 1L of air, for 6 hours per day).

    Advanced Placement (AP) Environmental Science (also known as APES, AP Enviro, AP Environmental, AP Environment, or AP EnviroSci) is a course and exam offered by the American College Board as part of the Advanced Placement Program to high school students interested in the environmental and natural sciences. AP Environmental Science was first ...

  9. Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_dimensioning_and...

    Example of true position geometric control defined by basic dimensions and datum features. Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) is a system for defining and communicating engineering tolerances via a symbolic language on engineering drawings and computer-generated 3D models that describes a physical object's nominal geometry and the permissible variation thereof.
