  2. Capacity planning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_planning

    Capacity planning is the process of determining the production capacity needed by an organization to meet changing demands for its products. [1] In the context of capacity planning, design capacity is the maximum amount of work that an organization or individual is capable of completing in a given period.

  3. Capacity management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_management

    Capacity planning of storage, computer hardware, software and connection infrastructure resources required over some future period of time. [2] Capacity management interacts with the discipline of Performance Engineering, both during the requirements and design activities of building a system, and when using performance monitoring.

  4. Design load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_load

    The design load is either the same as or a multiple of the rated load, which represents the system's declared performance capacity, see structural design load section below. Structures and pressure vessels have design loads of the first type. Electric motors, compressors and heaters have design loads of the second type.

  5. Design for manufacturability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_for_manufacturability

    Design for manufacturability (also sometimes known as design for manufacturing or DFM) is the general engineering practice of designing products in such a way that they are easy to manufacture. The concept exists in almost all engineering disciplines, but the implementation differs widely depending on the manufacturing technology.

  6. Factor of safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factor_of_safety

    The design load is the maximum load the part should ever see in service. By this definition, a structure with an FoS of exactly 1 will support only the design load and no more. Any additional load will cause the structure to fail. A structure with an FoS of 2 will fail at twice the design load.

  7. Capacity building - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_building

    Capacity building (or capacity development, capacity strengthening) is the improvement in an individual's or organization's facility (or capability) "to produce, perform or deploy". [1] The terms capacity building and capacity development have often been used interchangeably, although a publication by OECD-DAC stated in 2006 that capacity ...

  8. Capacity utilization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_utilization

    Capacity utilization or capacity utilisation is the extent to which a firm or nation employs its installed productive capacity (maximum output of a firm or nation). It is the relationship between output that is produced with the installed equipment, and the potential output which could be produced with it, if capacity was fully used. [1]

  9. Limit state design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_state_design

    Limit State Design (LSD), also known as Load And Resistance Factor Design (LRFD), refers to a design method used in structural engineering. A limit state is a condition of a structure beyond which it no longer fulfills the relevant design criteria. [ 1 ]
