Threads Definition and 91 Threads

Any ideas how to search for threads that both I and another user have replied too? I remember "who, but I don't remember where, when" is the issue.

In the section "8-3 Threaded fasteners" from Shigley's the following text can be seen: Replacing a nut is simple enough. However, replacing a tapped part or having to update the tapped hole with something like a helicoil could be more complicated. Would that recommendation from Shigley's apply...

What is spawned a process meaning: "organizing and managing threads and the various processes spawned by running applications;" In more granular terms, accomplishing these three kernel functions involves a range of computer tasks, including the following: loading and managing less-critical OS...

Not homework and I'm not a Mech Eng. I was trying to follow a discussion elsewhere about a building foundation that involved 2.75" diameter steel bolts. Two nuts are locked together on the bolt and embedded in concrete. Threads of the bolt itself are sleeved so only the nuts are anchored into...

Hi everyone I'm making a Whack-a-mole-style game for learning katakana. I have a textView for the question, a textView for the answer and nine buttons. I have a SetQuestion runnable to show the question and answer. Each button has its own runnable that controls how long the button flashes...

Has there been any thought about a button for the poster to self-identify that the poster is using translation software? Edit: this is now a linguistics thread:frown:

I've asked this before, but the website has changed. How do you view previously posted threads, not posts? Seems unnecessarily difficult to find...

I have a C++ program that starts two threads from the parent thread, I need to kill both children from a child thread. ____> b | a - |_____> c I need to kill b & c from b. Issue is, I can't use simple flags, as c waits for input using cin. Any help appreciated.

Hello everybody! I've notice that when using NPT fittings, the female fittings usually doesn't take all of the male threads: This has never bothered me since these are commercial fittings and the engineers who designed them know what they are doing. But now, I need to make NPT holes in a...

I thought some folks here might be interested in this new paper in PNAS. https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/116/20/9785.full.pdf J. Nathan Matias, PNAS, 2019, vol. 116, no. 20, p.9785–9789. Abstract: Theories of human behavior suggest that people’s decisions to join a group and their...

Hi, I'm machining threads on to the ends of chrome rod for use in hydraulic rams. I have a ram which will see a maximum retracting load of 10 ton (98.1kN). For this I'm considering a thread of M30x2mm pitch. The chrome rod we use has a tensile strength of 550 n/mm2 with a yielding of 420 n/mm2...

i designed a cone drill bit with right hand thread to give friction and grab inside to give pulling force. my question is can this type of cone drill bit drill hard rock formations like normal tricone drill bits with teeth or the cone drill bit will be weak to penetrate hard rock formations .

Homework Statement Two parallel very long threads are uniformly charged with linear charge density of 10-8 C/cm . Distance between them is 15 cm. Find electric field vector at a distance of 15 cm from both threads. Homework Equations E*dA=Qenclosed/permittivity of free space The Attempt at a...

Two threads share a common buffer (an image, say). One thread (visualization which has an almost fixed delay). The other, image generation can have a delay either much greater or much lesser than the fixed one. What is the best paradigm to synchronize these threads using pthreads in order to...

Hi all, I have been assigned the task to calculate the strength of threads for the hydraulic cylinders my company manufactures. I have started doing some research and have found several guide formulas and methods to find shear area, length of engagement, force resulting in failure and so forth...

<Moderator note: Merger of two threads on the topic.> Hello! I am reading some basic stuff on complex integrals using branch cuts and i found the problem in the attachment. I am not sure I understand why the branch cut is along ##R^+##. I thought that branch cut is, loosely speaking, a line...

Hello! It might sound really silly but I don't see how to find all my threads - I see only Alerts tab, but all alerts are deleted once read. Please, advice how I can find my older threads, besides manually scrolling through the list of all posted threads in the forum. Thank you very much!

The option to choose to look at the list of unanswered threads seems to have vanished. Is this a PF problem or is my computer messed up?

Hi, I am trying to create an array of 20 threads to perform addition of 20 elements of two arrays. I have created an inner class. I don't know if my inner class syntax is correct or not. My code is:public class Question{ static int [ ] input1 = new int[20]; static int [ ] input2 = new...

Hello, I have an installation tool (which basically consists of a standard long bolt and nut) and a 100 lbs mass object would drop onto it (as if it were a hook) from about 1 - 2 inches. There are many forces to consider and I am looking into that. Since this installation tool will be...

Hi All. I am stuck in a problem. Please check the image attached. It's part of a foldable mechanism of a quad copter arm. The red part is fixed to the body, the grey part is fixed to arms. The transparent part is a threaded collar/sleeve. The yellow part is a stopper. The hinge is a connecting...

Most original posts on PhysicsForums, in the more 'academic' categories (i.e. Math, Physics, etc), has the original poster asking a very specific question. It seems the vast majority of users just come here to get free tutoring or push past a roadblock or misconception in their learning. The...

Does anyone else think it would be useful to know when homework has to be submitted on homework threads? It's well known that you learn more if aren't just given the answer but are led down a path that allows you to discover the answer yourself. However the latter can take many steps and if...

Dear PF Forum, Does anyone know how we can save our favorite threads INSIDE www.physicsforum.com profile not in our browser? Thanks.

Hi guys, Here is my problem / task: I have a 232 bar pressure cylinder (not sue what material it is made from) with a brass fill valve at one end. I am trying to design a new shorter valve so that it takes up less space inside the cylinder, and thus increasing the capacity. How would I...

Hi, apologies if I've missed the obvious, but is there a way to list just my threads? (Not posts) Thanks

Help me out here if you will... I remember, before... a long time ago... in their respective sections there were a select few threads explaining a certain few topics that seemed to crop up incessantly. Things like why 0.(9) == 1 and that all too familiar "What if we had a really long rod and...

Homework Statement Two small plastic balls hang from threads of negligible mass. Each ball has a mass of 0.14 g and a charge of magnitude q. The balls are attracted to each other and the threads attached to the balls make an angle of 20.0 degree. with the vertical. The balls are 2.05 cm apart...

I was browsing through 4-5 years old threads started by myself, and reading them, just for the sake of it. I can't believe I was that ignorant, and that dumb sometimes. Its embarrassing to read some of the replies I made back then, how could I not get it still? But, I also find some of my...

Hi. Will operate Casimir effect between the bolt threads? The distance between the threads is 10 nm. Thank By.

I have code written in java and I am fluxuating the parameters of how many threads I am creating, the OS accounts for threads up to 20,000 and I can see on the task manager that the number of running threads increases. Then how come when I put in 1 million the program still runs but the number...

[Physics Equlibrium Question] ***[SOLVED]*** ***[SOLVED]*** Hey, I haven't used a forum before, but out of desperation to find the solution/hint to this problem; google brought me here. I would really appreciate any help, as I am I not getting the correct answer. Thank you. ***[SOLVED]***...

Homework Statement Please refer to the image attached. Homework Equations P=hρg The Attempt at a Solution My workings: 16000=h1ρg 8000= h2ρg Since ρ and g are constant, therefore h1:h2 must be 2:1. But the answer is 18:12. Why am I wrong?

Homework Statement Please open the attachment for the question Homework Equations 1)coulomb's law The Attempt at a Solution I'm at a loss regarding what to do. Upon reading the question (ignoring the figure), I assumed that the charges will form a square and thus the angle between...

Hi guys: I am having trouble with differentiating nominal and major diameter, from what I get on google as well as my textbook, the nominal diameter is the largest diameter in the thread and major diameter is the distance between crest to crest. but aren't the two the same? thanks

Homework Statement (see attachment) An iron rod of length L is hung at a common point with threads of length \ell which are attached to the two ends of the rod. The rod is displaced a bit in the plane of the threads. What is the length of the threads if the period of the swinging of the rod...

Are there ANY PC games that use more than four CPU threads? It's about time that computer games make use of hyper-threading and 6-8 core processors. I read somewhere that flight simulator X is coded to use up to 16 threads. Although I'm not sure if that's actually true.

I finally got an answer to my question by a poster on this site, and my thread gets removed. I broke no rules, so it seems some mod out there drunk with power. It is utterly pitiful, as I thought this was supposed to be a legitimate physics website, not one with corrupt mods.

I am guessing that it is easier to produce that way, and gives it more flexibilty. Are these the reasons for wires being mafe of many thin threads, and are there other reasons? Does it allow for better heat dissipation?

Homework Statement In my main function i am filling 2 matrices. Matrix A is 18x16 and MatrixB is 16x18. Then i am multiplying them in my thread function using an array of threads. However, i am getting segmentations faults when trying to run the program. #include<stdio.h> #include<pthread.h>...

For threading of Power screws ( like in a car jack with square/trapizoidal threading ), why is cold rolling preferred to normal material removal machining ; say turning on lathe. Or is cold rolling even preffered?

I have noticed that political threads get locked or terminated far more frequently than is the case with more scientific ones. Sometimes this is because posters wander far off the OP topic, but more often it appears that incivility simply reaches unacceptable levels. I assume that most of...

See post 2 in this thread, none of the latex lines are working now (they were working before), post 4 is slightly messed up: https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=306442 In post 8 in this thread one of lines is messed up: https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=360987...

Hi, I've recently started C and i have a quick question in the code below i increase the variable Balance in two threads, but somehow the final Balance is still equal to the initial value. Why? #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <unistd.h> pthread_mutex_t...

Perhaps then he might get a clue, and start acting on the inputs of the best and the brightest out here on the Internet. Even though we might disagree, we do so intelligently. Given what he's done so far, I haven't the slightest clue as to what he's acting on.

^^ But I hate doing a cold entrance even more xD I'm Bee and I'm a third year EE student at some school in Canada. The main reason I'm posting this is just to throw out there that I feel pretty over my head here (haha) but I've been lurking for months and I'm hoping that maybe I'll learn...
