  2. Notch (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    For standardized testing of fracture toughness by the Charpy impact method, specimen and notch dimensions are most often taken from American standard ASTM E23, or British standard BS EN ISO 148-1:2009. For all notch types, a key parameter in governing stress concentration and failure in notched materials is the notch tip curvature or radius. [1]

  3. Stress concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_concentration

    The sharp corner at the brick has acted as a stress concentrator within the concrete causing it to crack. The de Havilland Comet aircraft experienced a number of catastrophic failures that were eventually found to be due to fatigue cracks growing from the high stress concentration caused by the use of punched rivet holes around the windows. The ...

  4. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gear_nomenclature

    Lead angle is 90° to the helix angle between the helical tooth face and an equivalent spur tooth face. For the same lead, the lead angle is larger for smaller gear diameters. It is understood to be measured at the standard pitch diameter unless otherwise specified. A spur gear tooth has a lead angle of 90°, and a helix angle of 0°. See ...

  5. Miter joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miter_joint

    90º miter joint (pieces ready to be joined) Miter joint of two pipes A miter joint (mitre in British English) is a joint made by cutting each of two parts to be joined, across the main surface, usually at a 45° angle, to form a corner, usually to form a 90° angle, though it can comprise any angle greater than 0 degrees.

  6. Design of plastic components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_of_plastic_components

    Plastic material suppliers and molders are the authority on what is the lowest acceptable draft. In most instances, 1degree per side will be sufficient, but between 2 degree and 5 degree per side would be preferable. If the design is not compatible with 1 degree, then allow for 0.5 degree on each side.

  7. Compact tension specimen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compact_tension_specimen

    The stress intensity factor at the crack tip of a compact tension specimen is [4] = [() / / + / / + /] where is the applied load, is the thickness of the specimen, is the crack length, and is the effective width of the specimen being the distance between the centreline of the holes and the backface of the coupon.

  8. Try square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Try_square

    A try square or try-square is a woodworking tool used for marking and checking 90° angles on pieces of wood. Though woodworkers use many different types of square, the try square is considered one of the essential tools for woodworking. [1] The square in the name refers to the 90° angle.

  9. Charpy impact test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charpy_impact_test

    In materials science, the Charpy impact test, also known as the Charpy V-notch test, is a standardized high strain rate test which determines the amount of energy absorbed by a material during fracture. Absorbed energy is a measure of the material's notch toughness. It is widely used in industry, since it is easy to prepare and conduct and ...
