Fillet (mechanics) In mechanical engineering, a fillet is a rounding of an interior or exterior corner of a part. An interior or exterior corner, with an angle or type of bevel, is called a "chamfer". Fillet geometry, when on an interior corner is a line of concave function, whereas a fillet on an exterior corner is a line of convex function ...
Parts of a fillet weld. There are 5 pieces to each fillet weld known as the root, toe, face, leg and throat. [2] The root of the weld is the part of deepest penetration which is the opposite angle of the hypotenuse. The toes of the weld are essentially the edges or the points of the hypotenuse.
Internal force lines are denser near the hole. In solid mechanics, a stress concentration (also called a stress raiser or a stress riser or notch sensitivity) is a location in an object where the stress is significantly greater than the surrounding region. Stress concentrations occur when there are irregularities in the geometry or material of ...
EO, ECO, ECN. engineering order. An order from the engineering department (to be followed by the production department or vendor) overriding/superseding a detail on the drawing, which gets superseded with revised information. Also called by various other names, such as engineering change order (ECO), engineering change notice (ECN), drawing ...
Brazing is a metal -joining process in which two or more metal items are joined by melting and flowing a filler metal into the joint, with the filler metal having a lower melting point than the adjoining metal. Brazing differs from welding in that it does not involve melting the work pieces. Brazing differs from soldering through the use of a ...
The basic welding symbol which goes on the reference line to indicate the shape of the weld such as a fillet or plug. The symbol is placed on the arrow side or other side of the line to indicate which side of the joint the weld goes. The dimensions and other numbers such as the length of the weld or number of spot welds go above and below the ...
Fatigue (material) Fracture surface of an aluminium crank arm from a bicycle. The dark area (due to oil, dirt and fretting) is a slow growth fatigue crack and may contain striations. The bright area is caused by sudden fracture. Mechanical failure modes. Buckling.
Radius gauge. A radius gauge, also known as a fillet gauge, [ 1] is a tool used to measure the radius of an object. [ 2] Radius gauges require a bright light behind the object to be measured. The gauge is placed against the edge to be checked and any light leakage between the blade and edge indicates a mismatch that requires correction. [ 3]
