  2. Micrometer (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrometer_(device)

    Micrometer thimble with a reading of 5.779 ± 0.005 mm. (You must enlarge the image to be able to read the scale to its fullest precision.) The reading consists of exactly 5.5 mm from the main scale plus an estimated 0.279 mm from the secondary scale.

  3. Differential screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_screw

    Many differential screw configurations are possible. The micrometer adjuster pictured uses a nut sleeve with different inner and outer thread pitches to connect a screw on the adjusting rod end with threads inside the main barrel; as the thimble rotates the nut sleeve, the rod and barrel move relative to each other based on the differential between the threads.

  4. Micrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrometer

    Micrometer can mean: Micrometer (device), used for accurate measurements by means of a calibrated screw; Micrometre, a millionth of a metre

  5. Microviscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microviscosity

    The friction experienced by a single particle can be thought of as a microscopic viscosity (microviscosity) and should not necessarily agree with the bulk viscosity since it is a measure of the probe's local friction whereas bulk viscosity analogously would be the measure of an infinitely large probe.

    English: Illustration of a micrometer caliper. The micrometer is showing a measurement of 7.145 mm ± 0.005 mm. Legend: Anvil: part that the spindle moves toward, and that the sample rests against; Spindle: moved by the thimble towards the anvil; Ratchet stop: limits applied pressure by slipping at a calibrated torque

  7. Interference fit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interference_fit

    An interference fit, also known as a pressed fit or friction fit, is a form of fastening between two tightfitting mating parts that produces a joint which is held together by friction after the parts are pushed together. [1]

  8. Haptic technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haptic_technology

    A significant amount of information about a surface's texture on the micro meter scale can be gathered through this action as vibrations resulting from friction and texture activate mechanoreceptors in the human skin. Towards this goal plates can be made to vibrate at an ultrasonic frequency which reduces the friction between the plate and skin.

  9. Deformation monitoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deformation_monitoring

    A radio telemetry wireline extensometer monitoring slope deformation. Deformation monitoring (also referred to as deformation survey) is the systematic measurement and tracking of the alteration in the shape or dimensions of an object as a result of stresses induced by applied loads.
