Caboni Questions
Can you calculate the endurance limit?
Yes
In a closed system, this law states that energy can change form but is never created or destroyed
First Law of Thermodynamics
This simple machine consists of a wheel on an axle and a rope, used to lift heavy objects.
Pulley
An acronym for Computer-Aided Design, which is software used to create 2D drawings and 3D models of products and buildings
CAD
Named after the man who defined the laws of motion, this is the SI unit of force.
Newton
How does a brittle material fail?
Normal Stress
In stress-strain curves, this point marks the transition from elastic to plastic behavior
Yield point
This structural component, often made of steel or wood, uses triangular shapes to support bridges and roofs
Truss
This rapid prototyping method creates parts by adding material layer by layer
3D Printing
This is the standard unit used to measure electrical resistance
Ohm
What happens to the welded area of a Cold Rolled material?
The internal structure changes, and the cold rolled properties are lost
This quantity is the time it takes to complete one full vibration/oscillation cycle
What is the period?
What is the yield strength of A36 Steel
36,000 psi
A tool used to evaluate and prioritize multiple options based on specific criteria, helping to make informed decisions (Schmaltz and Dinan)
Decision Matrix
Equal to one newton per square meter, this is the SI unit of pressure.
Pascal
What do you do when calculating the throat of a weld and the heights are different?
Use the smaller one
This type of heat exchanger has fluids flowing in opposite directions
Counterflow heat exchanger
This type of structure is supported at only one end, commonly used in balconies and specific types of bridges.
Cantilever Beam
What is gear ratio?
The ratio between the number of teeth on two meshing gears. It determines the speed and torque output of a gear system.
This unit represents the amount of work done or energy transferred by a force of one newton over one meter.
Joule
If a bolt head has 3 lines on it, what grade is it?
Grade 5
In fatigue analysis, what term describes the maximum fully reversed stress that a material can withstand for an infinite number of cycles?
Endurance
This is the aerodynamic force that opposes the motion of an object through the atmosphere.
Drag
This criterion is used to predict failure in materials in complex stress states (also seen when doing FEA on SolidWorks)
Von Mises
This is the SI unit for electric charge, named after the French physicist who studied electrostatic force.
Coulomb
