  2. Contact area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_area

    Contact area may depend on the normal force between the two objects due to deformation. [1] The contact area depends on the geometry of the contacting bodies, the load, and the material properties. The contact area between the two parallel cylinders is a narrow rectangle. Two, non-parallel cylinders have an elliptical contact area, unless the ...

  3. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    When two bodies with rough surfaces are pressed against each other, the true contact area formed between the two bodies, , is much smaller than the apparent or nominal contact area . The mechanics of contacting rough surfaces are discussed in terms of normal contact mechanics and static frictional interactions. [ 29 ]

  4. Roundness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roundness

    Roundness is the measure of how closely the shape of an object approaches that of a mathematically perfect circle.Roundness applies in two dimensions, such as the cross sectional circles along a cylindrical object such as a shaft or a cylindrical roller for a bearing.

  5. Circle packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing

    In the two-dimensional Euclidean plane, Joseph Louis Lagrange proved in 1773 that the highest-density lattice packing of circles is the hexagonal packing arrangement, [1] in which the centres of the circles are arranged in a hexagonal lattice (staggered rows, like a honeycomb), and each circle is surrounded by six other circles.

  6. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gear_nomenclature

    The module is the measure of gear tooth size which is normally used for metric system gears. It is similar to the Diametral Pitch (DP), which is commonly used for UK system (inch measure) gears but they differ in the units used and in that they bear a reciprocal relationship. Module is the pitch circle diameter divided by the number of teeth.

  7. Circle packing in a circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing_in_a_circle

    Circle packing in a circle is a two-dimensional packing problem with the objective of packing unit circles into the smallest possible larger circle. Table of solutions, 1 ≤ n ≤ 20 [ edit ]

  8. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    The area of the base of a cylinder is the area of a circle (in this case we define that the circle has a radius with measure ): B = π r 2 {\displaystyle B=\pi r^{2}} . To calculate the total area of a right circular cylinder, you simply add the lateral area to the area of the two bases:

  9. Thermal contact conductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_contact_conductance

    Since the contact pressure is the most important factor, most studies, correlations and mathematical models for measurement of contact conductance are done as a function of this factor. The thermal contact resistance of certain sandwich kinds of materials that are manufactured by rolling under high temperatures may sometimes be ignored because ...
