The code is mandated by the U.S. Department of Transportation [ 2] but is used worldwide. [ 3] The DOT code is also useful in identifying tires subject to product recall [ 4] or at end of life due ...
The N2 chart or N2 diagram (pronounced "en-two" or "en-squared") is a chart or diagram in the shape of a matrix, representing functional or physical interfaces between system elements. It is used to systematically identify, define, tabulate, design, and analyze functional and physical interfaces. It applies to system interfaces and hardware and ...
Barcode. A UPC-A barcode. A barcode or bar code is a method of representing data in a visual, machine-readable form. Initially, barcodes represented data by varying the widths, spacings and sizes of parallel lines. These barcodes, now commonly referred to as linear or one-dimensional (1D), can be scanned by special optical scanners, called ...
Ternary plot. A ternary plot, ternary graph, triangle plot, simplex plot, or Gibbs triangle is a barycentric plot on three variables which sum to a constant. [ 1] It graphically depicts the ratios of the three variables as positions in an equilateral triangle. It is used in physical chemistry, petrology, mineralogy, metallurgy, and other ...
A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process.

[1] In an ARC there are six closeness ratings which may be assigned to each pair of departments, as well as nine reasons for those ratings (each is assigned by a reason code).
An example Karnaugh map. This image actually shows two Karnaugh maps: for the function ƒ, using minterms (colored rectangles) and for its complement, using maxterms (gray rectangles). In the image, E () signifies a sum of minterms, denoted in the article as . The Karnaugh map ( KM or K-map) is a method of simplifying Boolean algebra expressions.
Diagram showing circles of confusion for point source too close, in focus, and too far. In optics, a circle of confusion (CoC) is an optical spot caused by a cone of light rays from a lens not coming to a perfect focus when imaging a point source. It is also known as disk of confusion, circle of indistinctness, blur circle, or blur spot .
