  2. Pipe Cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_Cutting

    Plasma CNC Pipe Cutting . Hot cutting refers to a process in which materials are cut using a thermal torch. One of the most common techniques is oxy-fuel gas cutting, which is used extensively for cutting carbon and low-alloy steels. However, its efficiency diminishes as the alloy content of the material increases, limiting its applicability ...

  3. Chip formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chip_formation

    Chip formation is part of the process of cutting materials by mechanical means, using tools such as saws, lathes and milling cutters.. The formal study of chip formation was encouraged around World War II and shortly afterwards, with increases in the use of faster and more powerful cutting machines, particularly for metal cutting with the new high speed steel cutters.

  4. Steel design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_design

    The design and use of steel frames are commonly employed in the design of steel structures. More advanced structures include steel plates and shells. In structural engineering, a structure is a body or combination of pieces of the rigid bodies in space that form a fitness system for supporting loads and resisting moments.

  5. Orthogonal transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_transformation

    In finite-dimensional spaces, the matrix representation (with respect to an orthonormal basis) of an orthogonal transformation is an orthogonal matrix. Its rows are mutually orthogonal vectors with unit norm, so that the rows constitute an orthonormal basis of V. The columns of the matrix form another orthonormal basis of V.

  6. Drill cuttings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_cuttings

    Many national regulations stipulate that for any well drilled, a set of samples must be archived with a national body. For example, in the case of the UK with the British Geological Survey . The bulk of the cuttings require disposal. The methodology for disposal is dependent on the type of drilling fluid used. For water based drilling fluid ...

  7. Cutting tool (machining) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_tool_(machining)

    The cutting edge of a cutting tool is a very important for the performance of the cutting process. The main features of the cutting edge are: form of the cutting edge: radius or waterfall or trumpet (reverse waterfall) cutting edge angles; form and size of the chamfers; The measurement of the cutting edge is performed using a tactile instrument ...

  8. Machining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machining

    Machining is a manufacturing process where a desired shape or part is created using the controlled removal of material, most often metal, from a larger piece of raw material by cutting. Machining is a form of subtractive manufacturing , [ 1 ] which utilizes machine tools , in contrast to additive manufacturing (e.g. 3D printing ), which uses ...

  9. Orthogonal instruction set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_instruction_set

    An orthogonal instruction set does not impose a limitation that requires a certain instruction to use a specific register [1] so there is little overlapping of instruction functionality. [ 2 ] Orthogonality was considered a major goal for processor designers in the 1970s, and the VAX-11 is often used as the benchmark for this concept.
