  2. Centerless grinding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centerless_grinding

    Centerless grinding. Centerless grinding is a machining process that uses abrasive cutting to remove material from a workpiece. [1] Centerless grinding differs from centered grinding operations in that no spindle or fixture is used to locate and secure the workpiece; [2] the workpiece is secured between two rotary grinding wheels, and the speed ...

  3. Wedge prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedge_prism

    Wedge prism. The wedge prism is a prism with a shallow angle between its input and output surfaces. This angle is usually 3 degrees or less. Refraction at the surfaces causes the prism to deflect light by a fixed angle. When viewing a scene through such a prism, objects will appear to be offset by an amount that varies with their distance from ...

  4. Yield surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_surface

    A yield surface is a five-dimensional surface in the six-dimensional space of stresses. The yield surface is usually convex and the state of stress of inside the yield surface is elastic. When the stress state lies on the surface the material is said to have reached its yield point and the material is said to have become plastic.

  5. Angle grinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_grinder

    Angle grinder. An angle grinder, also known as a side grinder or disc grinder, is a handheld power tool used for grinding (abrasive cutting) and polishing.Although developed originally as tools for rigid abrasive discs, the availability of an interchangeable power source has encouraged their use with a wide variety of cutters and attachments.

  6. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prism dioptres. Prism correction is commonly specified in prism dioptres, a unit of angular measurement that is loosely related to the dioptre. Prism dioptres are represented by the Greek symbol delta (Δ) in superscript. A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. [2]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Angle_Grinder_cutting...

    English: An angle grinder is used for cutting through a steel chain. The chain elements are made from steel with a thickness of about 8 mm. Two of such chains were used for mounting mirrors with massive steel frames at the ceiling.

  8. Minimum deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_deviation

    The angle of incidence and angle of emergence equal each other ( i = e ). This is clearly visible in the graph below. The formula for minimum deviation can be derived by exploiting the geometry in the prism. The approach involves replacing the variables in the Snell's law in terms of the Deviation and Prism Angles by making the use of the above ...

  9. Augmented hexagonal prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented_hexagonal_prism

    Its dihedral angle can be obtained by calculating the angle of a square pyramid and a hexagonal prism in the following: The dihedral angle of an augmented hexagonal prism between two adjacent triangles is the dihedral angle of an equilateral square pyramid, arccos ⁡ ( − 1 / 3 ) ≈ 109.5 ∘ {\displaystyle \arccos \left(-1/3\right)\approx ...
