  2. Head (vessel) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_(Vessel)

    The dish has a radius that equals the diameter of the cylinder it is attached to (=). The knuckle has a radius that equals a tenth of the diameter of the cylinder ( r 2 = 0.1 × D o {\displaystyle r_{2}=0.1\times Do} ), hence its alternative designation "decimal head".

  3. Fuller calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuller_calculator

    The Fuller calculator, sometimes called Fuller's cylindrical slide rule, is a cylindrical slide rule with a helical main scale taking 50 turns around the cylinder. This creates an instrument of considerable precision – it is equivalent to a traditional slide rule 25.40 metres (1,000 inches) long.

  4. Belleville washer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belleville_washer

    Counting from one end of the stack, group by the number of adjacent washers in parallel. For example, in the stack of washers to the right, the grouping is 2-3-1-2, because there is a group of 2 washers in parallel, then a group of 3, then a single washer, then another group of 2.

  5. Dish structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dish_structure

    The subhorizontal dish structure consists of two parts, the dish itself and the [sediment] contained within the dish plus the region stretching up to the bounding surface of the overlying dish(or dishes) above. The bounding surface of the dish can take on variable shapes, from substantially flat to bowl-like and to strongly concave up.

  6. Pressure vessel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_vessel

    The ASME definition of a pressure vessel is a container designed to hold gases or liquids at a pressure substantially different from the ambient pressure. [2]The Australian and New Zealand standard "AS/NZS 1200:2000 Pressure equipment" defines a pressure vessel as a vessel subject to internal or external pressure, including connected components and accessories up to the connection to external ...

  7. Equivalent narcotic depth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_narcotic_depth

    Equivalent narcotic depth (END) (historically also equivalent nitrogen depth) is used in technical diving as a way of estimating the narcotic effect of a breathing gas mixture, such as nitrox, heliox or trimix. The method is used, for a given breathing gas mix and dive depth, to calculate the equivalent depth which would produce about the same ...

  8. TI-83 series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TI-83_series

    The TI-83 was the first calculator in the TI series to have built-in assembly language support. The TI-92, TI-85, and TI-82 were capable of running assembly language programs, but only after sending a specially constructed (hacked) memory backup. The support on the TI-83 could be accessed through a hidden feature of the calculator.

  9. Cavendish experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavendish_experiment

    The following is not the method Cavendish used, but describes how modern physicists would calculate the results from his experiment. [ 26 ] [ 27 ] [ 28 ] From Hooke's law , the torque on the torsion wire is proportional to the deflection angle θ {\displaystyle \theta } of the balance.
