  2. Converting (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Converting_(metallurgy)

    The converting process occurs in a converter. Two kinds of converters are widely used: horizontal and vertical. Two kinds of converters are widely used: horizontal and vertical. Horizontal converters of the Peirce-Smith type [ fr ] (which are an improvement of the Manhès-David converter [ fr ] ) prevail in the metallurgy of non-ferrous metals .

  3. List of character tables for chemically important 3D point ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_character_tables...

    The body of the tables contain the characters in the respective irreducible representations for each respective symmetry operation, or set of symmetry operations. The symbol i used in the body of the table denotes the imaginary unit: i 2 = −1. Used in a column heading, it denotes the operation of inversion.

  4. Block-stacking problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block-stacking_problem

    The first nine blocks in the solution to the single-wide block-stacking problem with the overhangs indicated. In statics, the block-stacking problem (sometimes known as The Leaning Tower of Lire (Johnson 1955), also the book-stacking problem, or a number of other similar terms) is a puzzle concerning the stacking of blocks at the edge of a table.

  5. Truncated cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_cube

    In geometry, the truncated cube, or truncated hexahedron, is an Archimedean solid. It has 14 regular faces (6 octagonal and 8 triangular ), 36 edges, and 24 vertices. If the truncated cube has unit edge length, its dual triakis octahedron has edges of lengths 2 and δ S +1 , where δ S is the silver ratio, √ 2 +1.

  6. Steel grades - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_grades

    In addition to the descriptive steel grade naming system indicated above, within EN 10027-2 is defined a system for creating unique steel grade numbers. While less descriptive and intuitive than the grand names they are easier to tabulate and use in data processing applications.

  7. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    Cubic or cylindrical samples of concrete are tested under a compression testing machine to measure this value. Test requirements vary by country based on their differing design codes. Use of a Compressometer is common. As per Indian codes, compressive strength of concrete is defined as: Field cured concrete in cubic steel molds (Greece)

  8. Conversion of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

    The factor–label method can convert only unit quantities for which the units are in a linear relationship intersecting at 0 (ratio scale in Stevens's typology). Most conversions fit this paradigm. An example for which it cannot be used is the conversion between the Celsius scale and the Kelvin scale (or the Fahrenheit scale). Between degrees ...

  9. Rijndael S-box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rijndael_S-box

    The Rijndael S-box was specifically designed to be resistant to linear and differential cryptanalysis. This was done by minimizing the correlation between linear transformations of input/output bits, and at the same time minimizing the difference propagation probability.
