  2. Metal spinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_spinning

    Commercially, rollers mounted on the end of levers are generally used to form the material down to the mandrel in both hand spinning and CNC metal spinning. Rollers vary in diameter and thickness depending the intended use. The wider the roller the smoother the surface of the spinning; the thinner rollers can be used to form smaller radii.

  3. Span (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    In engineering, span is the distance between two adjacent structural supports (e.g., two piers) of a structural member (e.g., a beam). Span is measured in the horizontal direction either between the faces of the supports (clear span) or between the centers of the bearing surfaces (effective span): [1] A span can be closed by a solid beam or by ...

    Form, Fit, and Function (also F3 or FFF) is a concept used in various industries, including manufacturing, engineering, and architecture, ...

  5. Span (category theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Span_(category_theory)

    There is a trivial span A ← A → B, where the left map is the identity on A, and the right map is the given map φ. If M is a model category , with W the set of weak equivalences , then the spans of the form X ← Y → Z , {\displaystyle X\leftarrow Y\rightarrow Z,} where the left morphism is in W, can be considered a generalised morphism ...

  6. Linear span - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_span

    In mathematics, the linear span (also called the linear hull [1] or just span) of a set of elements of a vector space is the smallest linear subspace of that contains . It is the set of all finite linear combinations of the elements of S , [ 2 ] and the intersection of all linear subspaces that contain S . {\displaystyle S.}

  7. Melt spinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melt_spinning

    Melt spinning is a metal forming technique that is typically used to form thin ribbons of metal or alloys with a particular atomic structure. [ 1 ] Some important commercial applications of melt-spun metals include high-efficiency transformers ( Amorphous metal transformer ), sensory devices, telecommunications equipment, and power electronics.

  8. Electrospinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrospinning

    The material, dubbed BF (Battlefield Filter) was spun from cellulose acetate in a solvent mixture of dichloroethane and ethanol. By the 1960s output of spun filtration material was claimed as 20 million m 2 per annum. [49] Between 1964 and 1969 Sir Geoffrey Ingram Taylor produced the theoretical underpinning of electrospinning.

  9. Hand spinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_spinning

    The Spinner by William-Adolphe Bouguereau shows a woman hand-spinning using a drop spindle.Fibers to be spun are bound to a distaff held in her left hand.. Spinning is an ancient textile art in which plant, animal or synthetic fibres are drawn out and twisted together to form yarn.
