  2. Key (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_(engineering)

    The more exact fit of the key and keyway also reduces play, and stress concentrations in, and improves the reliability of the key. An additional advantage is a stuck key can be removed from a shaft with a hammer blow, the circular profile will push the key out of the slot, as opposed to a standard key which will need to be pushed axially, or ...

  3. Spline (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spline_(mechanical)

    There are several types of splines: [2] Parallel key spline where the sides of the equally spaced grooves are parallel in both directions, radial and axial. Involute spline where the sides of the equally spaced grooves are involute, as with an involute gear, but not as tall. The curves increase strength by decreasing stress concentrations ...

  4. Spline interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spline_interpolation

    In the mathematical field of numerical analysis, spline interpolation is a form of interpolation where the interpolant is a special type of piecewise polynomial called a spline. That is, instead of fitting a single, high-degree polynomial to all of the values at once, spline interpolation fits low-degree polynomials to small subsets of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_element

    structural components such as frame members, bearings, axles, splines, fasteners, seals, and lubricants, mechanisms that control movement in various ways such as gear trains, belt or chain drives, linkages, cam and follower systems, including brakes and clutches, and

  6. Spline (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spline_(mathematics)

    The next most simple spline has degree 1. It is also called a linear spline. A closed linear spline (i.e, the first knot and the last are the same) in the plane is just a polygon. A common spline is the natural cubic spline. A cubic spline has degree 3 with continuity C 2, i.e. the values and first and second derivatives are continuous. Natural ...

  7. Set screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_screw

    However, small set screws without flats are prone to spinning and galling if overloaded. The use of keys and keyways instead of, or in combination with, set screws is common for applications requiring high torque resistance or transmission. Splines offer yet more strength. For longer life, set screws are usually made of alloy steel and case ...

  8. Form-fit connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Form-fit_connection

    A form-fit, form-locking or form-closed connection is a type of mechanical connection between two parts (example: screw and screwdriver), wherein these parts due to their forms interlock and block each other along at least one defined linear or rotational direction.

  9. Bicubic interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicubic_interpolation

    Bicubic interpolation can be accomplished using either Lagrange polynomials, cubic splines, or cubic convolution algorithm. In image processing , bicubic interpolation is often chosen over bilinear or nearest-neighbor interpolation in image resampling , when speed is not an issue.
