  2. K-factor (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-factor_(metallurgy)

    The K-factor is the bending capacity of sheet metal, and by extension the forumulae used to calculate this. [1] [2] [3] Mathematically it is an engineering aspect of geometry. [4] Such is its intricacy in precision sheet metal bending [5] (with press brakes in particular) that its proper application in engineering has been termed an art. [4] [5]

  3. K factor (traffic engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K_factor_(traffic_engineering)

    The calculation for the K factor is given by the formula: DHV= K*AADT. in which DHV is the "Design Hourly Volume," the 30th highest hourly traffic volume (in both directions) in the year in which data was collected, by vehicles per hour. [4]

  4. K-factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-factor

    K factor (crude oil refining), a system for classifying crude oil; K-factor (fire protection), formula used to calculate the discharge rate from a fire system nozzle; K-factor (metalurgy), formulae used to calculate the bending capacity of sheet metal; K factor (traffic engineering), the proportion of annual average daily traffic occurring in ...

  5. Moment distribution method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_distribution_method

    The moment distribution method is a structural analysis method for statically indeterminate beams and frames developed by Hardy Cross. It was published in 1930 in an ASCE journal. [ 1 ] The method only accounts for flexural effects and ignores axial and shear effects.

  6. Stress intensity factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_intensity_factor

    In fracture mechanics, the stress intensity factor (K) is used to predict the stress state ("stress intensity") near the tip of a crack or notch caused by a remote load or residual stresses. [1] It is a theoretical construct usually applied to a homogeneous, linear elastic material and is useful for providing a failure criterion for brittle ...

  7. Delay calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delay_calculation

    A very simple model called the K-factor model is sometimes used. This approximates the delay as a constant plus k times the load capacitance. A more complex model called Delay Calculation Language, [4] or DCL, calls a user-defined program whenever a delay value is required. This allows arbitrarily complex models to be represented, but raises ...

  8. Sheet metal forming analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal_forming_analysis

    The Forming analysis system software interprets the images and generates 3D measuring data. In order to compute the strain, the flat state is compared to the deformed state. (#1 & #2) In a standard measuring project, the flat state, the strain reference, is not captured optically but results from the theoretical point distance defined in the ...

  9. Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin_test

    The Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) test is a statistical measure to determine how suited data is for factor analysis. The test measures sampling adequacy for each variable in the model and the complete model. The statistic is a measure of the proportion of variance among variables that might be common variance.
