TestProcess.Source.Length.Form.Sphericity

Description – Sphericity is a measure of how closely the shape of an object resembles that of a perfect sphere. For example, the sphericity of the balls inside a ball bearing determines the quality of the bearing, such as the load it can bear or the speed at which it can turn without failing. Sphericity is a specific example of a compactness measure of a shape. Defined by Wadell in 1935,[1] the sphericity, {\displaystyle \Psi }\Psi , of a particle is the ratio of the surface area of a sphere with the same volume as the given particle to the surface area of the particle: where {\displaystyle V_{p}}V_p is volume of the particle and {\displaystyle A_{p}}A_p is the surface area of the particle. The sphericity of a sphere is unity by definition and, by the isoperimetric inequality, any particle which is not a sphere will have sphericity less than 1.

Sphericity applies in three dimensions; its analogue in two dimensions, such as the cross sectional circles along a cylindrical object such as a shaft, is called roundness.

TestProcess.Source.Length.Form.Perpendicularity

DescriptionPerpendicularity is a fairly common symbol that requires the referenced surface or line to be perpendicular or 90° from a datum surface or line. Perpendicularity can reference a 2D line, but more commonly it describes the orientation of one surface plane perpendicular to another datum plane.

  • EndPointX – End Point on the X-Axis distance from the reference
