13-15-17 refers to the BCD of the bolts that connect the flexplates on the converter to the flywheel on the engine (13", 15", 17").
Need to check on the engine flywheel what dimensions you have then specify that when ordering.
If you're working directly with Dana or through a distributor...
My previous experience may have been a bit caveman-level, but I found it was possible to rename the .ASC files to .CSV and then make a simple MATLAB code to convert the raw CAN numbers into the signals of interest I was reading.
It was pretty straightforward to have a batch Matlab script load...
The problem is you're using an indirect method of calculating the pin forces, so it depends on what you are trying to work out.
Validating design calcs? Maybe OK.
Trying to reverse engineer pin failures? Maybe not OK.
Most likely you won't pick up any shock loading on the pins due to damping...
This is an interesting discussion - I work in China for a component supplier (different industry but same challenges) and this is typically the MO for working over here, it's basically an expectation that *some* level of communication will happen through WeChat (Chinese WhatsApp). I've had...
I bought an iPad Pro for work a couple of years ago with the pencil, and I think it's very convenient for taking notes at work. Not a perfect solution, but I can keep a single note file for clients (instead of worrying about leaving blank pages, etc). The pencil is real smooth and accurate...
I would have a chat with your banks to make sure they've opened up the access to foreign currency withdrawals before travelling (I guess you have, but just a general comment).
Honestly for China, the easiest is just to withdraw a stack of RMB before you get there, and make sure work will...
What's the application here - you mention water pump, is this a hose fitting for an engine or something?
Considering the type of hosetail fitting you're showing here, in real life I would doubt that anyone actually working on this is reaching for a torque wrench or considering the number of...
Not an electrical solution, but can you replace the lines with stainless braided hoses (or similar)? I used to work in mining trucks where broken hoses causing fires is a huge issue. Engine/Truck OEM's won't change from the rubber hoses, but (at least in Aus) operators were strongly encouraged...
I wonder if there is some confusion between calling them 'hand calculations' and the intent of telling someone 'do some hand calculations' - I mean, the example regarding the egg would be terrible to do on paper, but could be put into a spreadsheet in a couple of hours. No one (well, probably no...
There are a bunch of research papers for flare bevel weld effective throat thicknesses - try this one:

Most people think you're trying to lift it in a horizontal orientation, but it sounds to me like you're trying to tap the outer diameter (i.e. through the thickness of the flange)?
Is there a reason you couldn't put a D-shackle through one of the bolt holes in the flange instead, to lift the...
My wife did a statistics course through CourseRA and John Hopkins last year - she paid to get the course accredited which included doing a typing test (to create a typing 'fingerprint' and taking a photo with the webcam for each assessment she sat). Not sure how effective this is at preventing...
We deal with Ex gear for underground mines, and basically every piece of electrical equipment that carries an Ex rating can only be worked on by technicians with proper qualifications.
If your motors are Ex, there should be protection methods around the terminal enclosure as well (either that...
To give you some numbers, we manufacture parts that are typically 10-20mm flange face width (from pressure side to atmospheric side), surface finish 1.6, face flatness to 0.2mm and they will leak no matter what.
To be honest I'm not sure how far you could go to make a gas-tight seal - as...
Is this really the case? My old university in Aus recently just restructured their bachelor degree programs in all disciplines. They are also now offering a 1 year Masters "extension" if you finished the bachelor with them, to entice current students to stay a year longer, or older students to...
