  2. Micrometer (device) - Wikipedia

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

    A micrometer, sometimes known as a micrometer screw gauge (MSG), is a device incorporating a calibrated screw widely used for accurate measurement of components [1] in mechanical engineering and machining as well as most mechanical trades, along with other metrological instruments such as dial, vernier, and digital calipers.

  3. Differential screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_screw

    A full turn of the thimble 12 rotates the nut sleeve 13 and its two threads (20 tpi outside and 25 tpi inside) to move the rod 1 / 20 - 1 / 25 = 0.01 in (0.25 mm) relative to the barrel. Differential screw illustration from an 1817 machine design handbook. ab & ef have one thread pitch while cd has a different one.

  4. Traveling microscope - Wikipedia

    micrometer, sometimes known as a "micrometer screw gauge" a device incorporating a calibrated screw used widely for precise measurement of small distances in mechanical engineering and machining as well as most mechanical trades, along with other metrological instruments such as dial , vernier , and digital calipers .

  7. Calipers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calipers

    The calipers in the diagram show a primary reading on the metric scale of about 2.475 cm (2.4 cm read from the main scale plus about 0.075 cm from the vernier scale). Calipers often have a "zero point error": meaning that the calipers do not read 0.000 cm when the jaws are closed.

  8. Accelerator physics codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerator_Physics_Codes

    There are software packages associated with each domain. The 1990 edition of the Los Alamos Accelerator Code Group's compendium [1] provides summaries of more than 200 codes. Certain codes are still in use today, although many are obsolete. Another index of existing and historical accelerator simulation codes is located at the CERN CARE/HHH ...
