  2. 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.

  3. Reference dimension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_Dimension

    Reference dimension. A reference dimension is a dimension on an engineering drawing provided for information only. [1] Reference dimensions are provided for a variety of reasons and are often an accumulation of other dimensions that are defined elsewhere [2] (e.g. on the drawing or other related documentation).

  4. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    v. t. e. An engineering drawing is a type of technical drawing that is used to convey information about an object. A common use is to specify the geometry necessary for the construction of a component and is called a detail drawing. Usually, a number of drawings are necessary to completely specify even a simple component.

  5. Technical drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_drawing

    Technical drawings. Technical drawing, drafting or drawing, is the act and discipline of composing drawings that visually communicate how something functions or is constructed. Technical drawing is essential for communicating ideas in industry and engineering. To make the drawings easier to understand, people use familiar symbols, perspectives ...

  6. Book size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_size

    The size of a book is generally measured by the height against the width of a leaf, or sometimes the height and width of its cover. [2] A series of terms is commonly used by libraries and publishers for the general sizes of modern books, ranging from folio (the largest), to quarto (smaller) and octavo (still smaller).

  7. Euler angles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_angles

    In the proper Euler angles case it was defined as the intersection between two homologous Cartesian planes (parallel when Euler angles are zero; e.g. xy and XY). In the Tait–Bryan angles case, it is defined as the intersection of two non-homologous planes (perpendicular when Euler angles are zero; e.g. xy and YZ).

  8. Display resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_resolution

    1080p progressive scan HDTV, which uses a 16:9 ratio. Some commentators also use display resolution to indicate a range of input formats that the display's input electronics will accept and often include formats greater than the screen's native grid size even though they have to be down-scaled to match the screen's parameters (e.g. accepting a 1920 × 1080 input on a display with a native 1366 ...

  9. SI base unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_base_unit

    Dimension symbol; second: s time "The second, symbol s, is the SI unit of time. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the caesium frequency, ∆ν Cs, the unperturbed ground-state hyperfine transition frequency of the caesium 133 atom, to be 9 192 631 770 when expressed in the unit Hz, which is equal to s −1."
