  2. Technical drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_drawing

    The basic drafting procedure is to place a piece of paper (or other material) on a smooth surface with right-angle corners and straight sides—typically a drawing board. A sliding straightedge known as a T-square is then placed on one of the sides, allowing it to be slid across the side of the table, and over the surface of the paper.

  3. Draft (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_(engineering)

    By specifying the opening length and width, a draft angle, and a depth, it is not necessary to specify the dimensions for the internal surface, as these may be calculated from the above. The manufacture of a part that incorporates zero or negative angles may require a mold that can be separated into two or more parts, in order to release the ...

    Gesture Drawing - loose drawing or sketching with the wrists moving, to create a sense of naturalism of the line or shape, as opposed to geometric or mechanical drawing; Grisaille – Hatching – consists of hatching, contour hatching, and double contour hatching; Masking – Mass drawing – Screentone – Scribble –

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    (Mnemonic: a "shark in a tank", esp. that is sunken into the floor.) Using the 6-sided viewing box, each view of the object is projected opposite to the direction (sense) of sight, onto the (transparent) exterior walls of the box; that is, each view of the object is drawn on the same side of the box.

  6. Plan (drawing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plan_(drawing)

    A working drawing is a type of technical drawing, which is part of the documentation needed to build an engineering product or architecture. Typically in architecture these could include civil drawings , architectural drawings , structural drawings , mechanical drawings , electrical drawings , and plumbing drawings .

  7. 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.

  8. Mechanical engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_engineering

    Drafting or technical drawing is the means by which mechanical engineers design products and create instructions for manufacturing parts. A technical drawing can be a computer model or hand-drawn schematic showing all the dimensions necessary to manufacture a part, as well as assembly notes, a list of required materials, and other pertinent ...

  9. Free surface effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_surface_effect

    A liquid hitting a wall in a container will cause sloshing. The free surface effect is a mechanism which can cause a watercraft to become unstable and capsize. [1]It refers to the tendency of liquids — and of unbound aggregates of small solid objects, like seeds, gravel, or crushed ore, whose behavior approximates that of liquids — to move in response to changes in the attitude of a craft ...
