  2. Rake angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rake_angle

    Negative rake: A tool has a negative rake angle when the face of the cutting tool slopes away from the cutting edge at outer side. Positive rake angles generally: Make the tool more sharp and pointed. This reduces the strength of the tool, as the small included angle in the tip may cause it to chip away. Reduce cutting forces and power ...

  3. Angular defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_defect

    For a polyhedron, the defect at a vertex equals 2π minus the sum of all the angles at the vertex (all the faces at the vertex are included). If a polyhedron is convex, then the defect of each vertex is always positive. If the sum of the angles exceeds a full turn, as occurs in some vertices of many non-convex polyhedra, then the defect is ...

  4. Ramachandran plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramachandran_plot

    In biochemistry, a Ramachandran plot (also known as a Rama plot, a Ramachandran diagram or a [φ,ψ] plot), originally developed in 1963 by G. N. Ramachandran, C. Ramakrishnan, and V. Sasisekharan, [1] is a way to visualize energetically allowed regions for backbone dihedral angles ( also called as torsional angles , phi and psi angles ) ψ ...

    CAST still goes counterclockwise but starts in quadrant 4 going through quadrants 4, 1, 2, then 3. ACTS still starts in quadrant 1 but goes clockwise going through quadrants 1, 4, 3, then 2. Sines and cosines of special angles

  6. Proofs of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proofs_of_trigonometric...

    The proofs given in this article use these definitions, and thus apply to non-negative angles not greater than a right angle. For greater and negative angles , see Trigonometric functions . Other definitions, and therefore other proofs are based on the Taylor series of sine and cosine , or on the differential equation f ″ + f = 0 ...

  7. Trigonometry - Wikipedia

    The adjacent leg is the other side that is adjacent to angle A. The opposite side is the side that is opposite to angle A. The terms perpendicular and base are sometimes used for the opposite and adjacent sides respectively. See below under Mnemonics. Sine (denoted sin), defined as the ratio of the side opposite the angle to the hypotenuse.

  8. Pattern (casting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_(casting)

    The taper angle provided is called the Draft angle. The value of the draft angle depends upon the complexity of the pattern, the type of molding (hand molding or machine molding), height of the surface, etc. Draft provided on the casting is usually 1 to 3 degrees on external surfaces (5 to 8 internal surfaces). [7]

  9. Caster angle - Wikipedia

    Front suspension of a race car ‍ — the caster angle is formed by the line between upper and lower ball joint An example of a chopper with a raked fork at an extreme caster angle The caster angle [ 1 ] or castor angle [ 2 ] is the angular displacement of the steering axis from the vertical axis of a steered wheel in a car , motorcycle ...
