  5. Rockwell scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockwell_scale

    Rockwell scale. The Rockwell scale is a hardness scale based on indentation hardness of a material. The Rockwell test measures the depth of penetration of an indenter under a large load (major load) compared to the penetration made by a preload (minor load). [1] There are different scales, denoted by a single letter, that use different loads or ...

  6. Structural load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_load

    Structural load. A structural load or structural action is a mechanical load (more generally a force) applied to structural elements. [1] [2] A load causes stress, deformation, displacement or acceleration in a structure. Structural analysis, a discipline in engineering, analyzes the effects of loads on structures and structural elements.

  7. Load regulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_regulation

    Load regulation. Load regulation is the capability to maintain a constant voltage (or current) level on the output channel of a power supply despite changes in the supply's load (such as a change in resistance value connected across the supply output). [1] [2]

  8. Load profile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_Profile

    In electrical engineering, a load profile is a graph of the variation in the electrical load versus time. A load profile will vary according to customer type (typical examples include residential, commercial and industrial), temperature and holiday seasons. Power producers use this information to plan how much electricity they will need to make ...
