20 termes essentiels, avec définition et exemple.
Tolerance
The permissible limit of variation in a dimension or measurement.
"The part must be machined within a 0.1mm tolerance."
Load-bearing
Capable of supporting structural weight.
"This is a load-bearing wall and cannot be removed."
Specification
A detailed description of technical requirements.
"The design must meet the client's specifications."
Prototype
An early sample or model built to test a concept.
"We built a prototype before mass production."
Blueprint
A detailed technical plan or drawing of a structure or system.
"The blueprint shows the electrical wiring layout."
Torque
A rotational force applied to an object.
"Tighten the bolt to the specified torque."
Fatigue (material)
The weakening of a material caused by repeated stress.
"Metal fatigue caused the component to fail."
Calibration
The process of adjusting equipment for accurate measurement.
"The sensors require regular calibration."
Structural integrity
The ability of a structure to withstand its intended load without failure.
"The inspection confirmed the bridge's structural integrity."
Feasibility study
An analysis to determine if a project is practically viable.
"The feasibility study concluded the project was too costly."
Commissioning
The process of testing and adjusting a system before full operation.
"Commissioning of the new plant begins next month."
Redundancy (system)
A backup component included to increase reliability.
"The system has built-in redundancy in case of failure."
Retrofit
To add new technology or features to an older system.
"The building was retrofitted with solar panels."
Downtime
A period when equipment or a system is not operating.
"Unplanned downtime cost the factory two days of production."
Schematic
A simplified diagram representing a system's components and connections.
"Refer to the schematic before starting the repair."
Compliance (engineering)
Meeting required technical standards or regulations.
"The design was updated to ensure compliance with safety codes."
Throughput
The amount of material or items processed in a given time.
"We increased throughput by optimising the assembly line."
Corrosion
The gradual destruction of materials, usually metals, by chemical reaction.
"Corrosion was found on the pipeline's exterior."
Actuator
A device that converts energy into mechanical motion.
"The actuator controls the valve's opening and closing."
Yield strength
The stress at which a material begins to deform permanently.
"The steel's yield strength exceeds the design requirement."
