  2. Fluorescence in situ hybridization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence_in_situ...

    A metaphase cell positive for the bcr/abl rearrangement (associated with chronic myelogenous leukemia) using FISH. The chromosomes can be seen in blue. The chromosome that is labeled with green and red spots (upper left) is the one where the rearrangement is present. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a molecular cytogenetic technique ...

  3. Square thread form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_thread_form

    The greatest advantage of square threads is that they have a much higher intrinsic efficiency than trapezoidal threads (Acme or metric trapezoidal). Due to the lack of a thread angle there is no radial pressure, or bursting pressure, on the nut. This also increases the nut life. [1] The greatest disadvantage is the difficulty in machining such ...

  4. Trapezoidal thread form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapezoidal_thread_form

    Trapezoidal thread forms are screw thread profiles with trapezoidal outlines. They are the most common forms used for leadscrews (power screws). They offer high strength and ease of manufacture. They are typically found where large loads are required, as in a vise or the leadscrew of a lathe. [1] Standardized variations include multiple-start ...

  5. Buttress thread - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buttress_thread

    In oil field tubing, buttress thread is a pipe thread form designed to provide a tight hydraulic seal. The thread form is similar to that of Acme thread [10] but there are two distinct threaded portions of differing diameters and profiles, the larger having a wedging profile, with a tapered sealing portion in between the larger and smaller diameters.

  6. Fish ladder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_ladder

    Pool-and-weir fish ladder at Bonneville Dam on the Columbia River Drone video of a fish way in Estonia, on the river Jägala FERC Fish Ladder Safety Sign. A fish ladder, also known as a fishway, fish pass, fish steps, or fish cannon, is a structure on or around artificial and natural barriers (such as dams, locks and waterfalls) to facilitate diadromous fishes' natural migration as well as ...

  7. Flare fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flare_fitting

    Tube flaring is a type of forging operation, [1] and is usually a cold working procedure. During assembly, a flare nut is used to secure the flared tubing's tapered end to the also tapered fitting, producing a pressure-resistant, leak-tight seal. Flared connections offer a high degree of long-term reliability and for this reason are often used ...

  8. British Standard Whitworth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Standard_Whitworth

    British Standard Whitworth. British Standard Whitworth (BSW) is an imperial-unit -based screw thread standard, devised and specified by Joseph Whitworth in 1841 and later adopted as a British Standard. It was the world's first national screw thread standard, and is the basis for many other standards, such as BSF, BSP, BSCon, and BSCopper.

  9. Thread pitch gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_pitch_gauge

    A thread gauge, [1] also known as a screw gauge[2] or pitch gauge, [3] is used to measure the pitch or lead of a screw thread. Thread pitch gauges are used as a reference tool in determining the pitch of a thread that is on a screw or in a tapped hole. This tool is not used as a precision measuring instrument, rather it allows the user to ...
