  2. Engineering tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_tolerance

    The standard (size) tolerances are divided into two categories: hole and shaft. They are labelled with a letter (capitals for holes and lowercase for shafts) and a number. For example: H7 (hole, tapped hole, or nut) and h7 (shaft or bolt). H7/h6 is a very common standard tolerance which gives a tight fit.

  3. Allowance (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    an allowance is a planned deviation from the nominal or theoretical dimension. In other words, it is an intended difference between the maximum material conditions of mating parts. [ 1 ]

  4. 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.

  5. Engineering fit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_fit

    Engineering fits are generally used as part of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing when a part or assembly is designed. In engineering terms, the "fit" is the clearance between two mating parts, and the size of this clearance determines whether the parts can, at one end of the spectrum, move or rotate independently from each other or, at the other end, are temporarily or permanently joined.

  6. IEEE 754 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754

    The IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic (IEEE 754) is a technical standard for floating-point arithmetic originally established in 1985 by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The standard addressed many problems found in the diverse floating-point implementations that made them difficult to use reliably and ...

  7. Half-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-precision_floating...

    This is described in a SIGGRAPH 2000 paper [6] (see section 4.3) and further documented in US patent 7518615. [7] It was popularized by its use in the open-source OpenEXR image format. Nvidia and Microsoft defined the half datatype in the Cg language , released in early 2002, and implemented it in silicon in the GeForce FX , released in late ...

  8. 68–95–99.7 rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/68–95–99.7_rule

    In statistics, the 68–95–99.7 rule, also known as the empirical rule, and sometimes abbreviated 3sr or 3 σ, is a shorthand used to remember the percentage of values that lie within an interval estimate in a normal distribution: approximately 68%, 95%, and 99.7% of the values lie within one, two, and three standard deviations of the mean ...

  9. ISO 31-0 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_31-0

    See Sect. 3.3 of the Standard text. Numbers should be printed in upright type. ISO 31-0 (after Amendment 2) specifies that "the decimal sign is either the comma on the line or the point on the line". This follows resolution 10 [1] of the 22nd CGPM, 2003. [2] For example, one divided by two (one half) may be written as 0.5 or 0,5.
