Chapter 5 Flashcards
Dimensions, surfaces, and their measurement
What is tolerance
The amount by which a specified dimension is permitted to vary
What is the difference between bilateral an unilateral tolerance
Bilatera: alows variations in both positve and negative while unilateral only on one (either one)
What is accuracy in measurement
Degree to whcih a measured vaue agrees with the true value.
What is precision measurement
measurement where degree towhich random errors occur are minimmized
Graduated measuring device
HAS MARKINGS
Why Surfaces important?
aesthetics, safety, ficiton and wear. effect of surface on mechanical and physical properties, mating oc components in assembly and electrical contacts
nominal surface?
ideal part of the surface represented on an engineering drawing (perfectly )
Surface texture
Random and reptitibe deviation from the nominal surface including roughness waviness, lay, and flaws
How is the surface texture distinguished from surface integrity
rexture refers to geometry, integrity refers to the surface and the surface layer beneath
Within the scope of surface texture, how is roughness distinguished form waviness
Roughmess finely spaced deviations, waviens: deviation of larger spacing. Rouhgness deviation lie within waviness dviation
Surface roughness ?
average value of the vertical deviation form the nominal surface over a specifies surface length
Limitation os using surface roughness as measure of surface texture
surface roughness provides only a single measure of surface texture. limitations. q. varies on direction. 2. does not indicate lay. 3. itv value depends on the roughnesswidth cutoff used to measure averafe
Identify some of teh changes and injuires that can occur at or immediately below the surface of metal
cracks, craters, variation in hardness, metallurgical changes from heat, residual stresses, intragranual attack (Table 5.1)
What causes various types of changes that occur in the altered layer just beneath the surfacce
Energy input to the surface resulting from amnyfacturnig process used to generate the surface. The energy forms can be any of several types like mechanical, theimal, chemical and electrical
