  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. Tolerance analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolerance_analysis

    Engineers analyze tolerances for the purpose of evaluating geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T). Methods include 2D tolerance stacks, 3D Monte Carlo simulations , and datum conversions. Tolerance stackups or tolerance stacks are used to describe the problem-solving process in mechanical engineering of calculating the effects of the ...

  4. Respiratory examination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_examination

    In order to listen to the lungs from the back the patient is asked to move their arms forward to prevent the scapulae (shoulder blades) from obstructing the upper lung fields. These fields are intended to correlate with the lung lobes and are thus tested on the anterior (front) and posterior (back) chest walls.

    The GD&T symbol for MMC is a circled M. (See also LMC and RFS.) A given geometric tolerance may be defined in relation to a certain FoS datum being at LMC or at MMC. MOD, MoD: Ministry of Defence [U.K. and others] See also DOD. MOP, MoP: measurement over pins: threads, splines, gears (external, male) (synonymous with MOW, measurement over wires ...

  6. Datum reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datum_reference

    A typical datum reference frame is made up of three planes. For example, the three planes could be one "face side" and two "datum edges". These three planes are marked A, B and C, where A is the face side, B is the first datum edge, and C is the second datum edge. In this case, the datum reference frame is A/B/C.

  7. Community-acquired pneumonia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community-acquired_pneumonia

    This inhibits lung function, causing dyspnea, fever, chest pains and cough. CAP, the most common type of pneumonia, is a leading cause of illness and death worldwide [citation needed]. Its causes include bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. [1] CAP is diagnosed by assessing symptoms, performing a physical examination, by x-ray or by sputum ...

  8. Lymphangioleiomyomatosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymphangioleiomyomatosis

    Pulmonary function testing in patients with LAM may be normal or may reveal obstructive, restrictive or mixed patterns. Obstructive physiology is the most common abnormality. Quality-controlled lung function data were collected prospectively by the NHLBI Registry, a five-year study of patients with LAM in centers around the United States.

  9. Occupational asthma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupational_asthma

    Removal from exposure may improve lung function when compared to continued exposure. Removal from exposure may improve symptoms and lung function more than reduction of exposure among patients exposed to low molecular weight agents, such as isocyanates, diisocyanates, plicatic acid, metals and anhydrides. Two studies reported an increase of job ...
