2. Hydroforming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroforming

   Hydroforming is capable of producing parts within tight tolerances including aircraft tolerances where a common tolerance for sheet metal parts is within 0.76 mm (1/30th of an inch). Metal hydroforming also allows for a smoother finish as draw marks produced by the traditional method of pressing a male and female die together are eliminated.

3. Betz mystery sphere - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betz_mystery_sphere

   The Betz mystery sphere is a metal sphere with an approximate diameter of 8 inches (20 cm) weighing nearly 22 pounds (10 kg) uncovered in 1974 by a family in Florida. [ 1 ] [ a ] Background

4. Liquidmetal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquidmetal

   In a demonstration, a metal sphere dropped on amorphous steel bounced significantly longer than the same metal sphere dropped on crystalline steel. [ 4 ] The lack of grain boundaries in a metallic glass eliminates grain-boundary corrosion—a common problem in high-strength alloys produced by precipitation hardening and sensitized stainless steels.

5. Faraday's ice pail experiment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_ice_pail_experiment

   The experiment uses a conductive metal container A open at the top, insulated from the ground. Faraday employed a 7 in. diameter by 10.5 in. tall pewter pail on a wooden stool,(B) [1] but modern demonstrations often use a hollow metal sphere with a hole in the top, [10] or a cylinder of metal screen, [9] [12] mounted on an insulating stand. Its ...

6. Wire-frame model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire-frame_model

   In 3D computer graphics, a wire-frame model (also spelled wireframe model) is a visual representation of a three-dimensional (3D) physical object. It is based on a polygon mesh or a volumetric mesh, created by specifying each edge of the physical object where two mathematically continuous smooth surfaces meet, or by connecting an object's constituent vertices using (straight) lines or curves.

7. Hoberman sphere - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoberman_sphere

   A Hoberman sphere is a kinetic structure patented by Chuck Hoberman that resembles a geodesic dome, but is capable of folding down to a fraction of its normal size by the scissor-like action of its joints. Colorful plastic versions have become popular as children's toys: several toy sizes exist, with the original design capable of expanding ...
