  2. Parallel (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    Generally, workshop parallels have 4 faces that are machined and ground - the front, back and sides, although some do have the ends with a smooth surface. The surface of a parallel can often tell how it was manufactured, with a 'grain' showing that it was ground - and a smooth or mirrored finish showing it has been lapped.

  3. Pyrometric device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrometric_device

    Bars Bars are square sectioned, and mounted horizontally across two fixed distance supports. During firing the softening of the material results in sagging at the centre. Pyrometric Bars have found popularity in Kiln Sitters, which uses the described deformation to act as a triggering element, thus turning off the kiln at a desired point of ...

  4. Conical plate centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conical_Plate_Centrifuge

    A set of parallel plates with a tilt angle θ with respect to horizontal plane is installed to reduce the distance of the particle settling. The reason for the tilted angle is to allow the settled solids on the plates to slide down by gravitational force so they do not accumulate and clog the channel formed between adjacent plates. [3]

  5. Lambert conformal conic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert_conformal_conic...

    This gives the map two standard parallels. In this way, deviation from unit scale can be minimized within a region of interest that lies largely between the two standard parallels. Unlike other conic projections, no true secant form of the projection exists because using a secant cone does not yield the same scale along both standard parallels. [2]

  6. Rheometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rheometer

    A well-known version of this instrument is the Weissenberg rheogoniometer, in which the movement of the cone is resisted by a thin piece of metal which twists—known as a torsion bar. The known response of the torsion bar and the degree of twist give the shear stress, while the rotational speed and cone dimensions give the shear rate. In ...

  7. Parallel bars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_bars

    Parallel bars are floor apparatus consisting of two wooden bars approximately 350cm (11'6") long and positioned at 200 centimetres (6.6 ft) above the floor. Parallel bars are used in artistic gymnastics and also for physical therapy and home exercise . [ 1 ]

  8. Conic section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conic_section

    A conic is the curve obtained as the intersection of a plane, called the cutting plane, with the surface of a double cone (a cone with two nappes).It is usually assumed that the cone is a right circular cone for the purpose of easy description, but this is not required; any double cone with some circular cross-section will suffice.

  9. Sine bar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_bar

    10-inch and 100-millimetre sine bars. In the U.S., 5-inch sine bars are the most common size. [1] Angles are measured using a sine bar with the help of gauge blocks and a dial gauge or a spirit level. The aim of a measurement is to measure the surface on which the dial gauge or spirit level is placed horizontally.
