  2. Tiltmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiltmeter

    The 2-axis MEMS driven inclinometers/ tiltmeters can be digitally compensated and precisely calibrated for non-linearity and operating temperature variation, resulting in higher angular accuracy and stability performance over wider angular measurement range and broader operating temperature range.

  3. Inclinometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclinometer

    An inclinometer sensor's true or absolute accuracy (which is the combined total error), however, is a combination of initial sets of sensor zero offset and sensitivity, sensor linearity, hysteresis, repeatability, and the temperature drifts of zero and sensitivity—electronic inclinometers accuracy can typically range from ±0.01–2 ...

    osmotic strength of a solution, colloid, or compound matter of an object parking meter: collects moneys for vehicle parking rights in a zone for a limited time pedometer: steps pH meter: pH (chemical acidity/basicity of a solution) photometer: illuminance or irradiance planometer: area polarimeter: rotation of polarized light potentiometer

  5. Plumb bob - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plumb_bob

    Students of figure drawing will also make use of a plumb line to find the vertical axis through the center of gravity of their subject and lay it down on paper as a point of reference. The device used may be purpose-made plumb lines, or simply makeshift devices made from a piece of string and a weighted object, such as a metal washer.

  6. Liquid capacitive inclinometers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Liquid_capacitive_inclinometers

    Liquid capacitive inclinometers are inclinometers (or clinometers) whose sensing elements are made with a liquid-filled differential capacitor; they sense the local direction of acceleration due to gravity (or movement). [1] A capacitive inclinometer has a disc-like cavity that is partly filled with a dielectric liquid.

  7. Geometric terms of location - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_terms_of_location

    These terms are used in descriptions of engineering, physics, and other sciences, as well as ordinary day-to-day discourse. Though these terms themselves may be somewhat ambiguous, they are usually used in a context in which their meaning is clear. For example, when referring to a drive shaft it is clear what is meant by axial or radial directions.

  9. Rotation around a fixed axis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_around_a_fixed_axis

    Rotation around a fixed axis or axial rotation is a special case of rotational motion around an axis of rotation fixed, stationary, or static in three-dimensional space. This type of motion excludes the possibility of the instantaneous axis of rotation changing its orientation and cannot describe such phenomena as wobbling or precession .
