  3. End-face mechanical seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-face_mechanical_seal

    The seal ring and mating ring are in intimate contact, one ring rotates with the shaft and the other ring is stationary. Either ring may be rotating or stationary. Also, either ring may be made of hard or soft material. These two rings are machined using a process called lapping in order to obtain the necessary degree of surface finish and ...

  4. Steel plate shear wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_plate_shear_wall

    Similar to plate girders, the SPW system optimizes component performance by taking advantage of the post-buckling behavior of the steel infill panels. An SPW frame can be idealized as a vertical cantilever plate girder, in which the steel plates act as the web, the columns act as the flanges and the cross beams represent the transverse ...
