Flare fittings are a type of compression fitting used with metal tubing, usually soft steel and ductile soft copper, though other materials are also used. Tube flaring is considered to be a type of forging operation, ref Manufacturing and Engineering Technology Serope Kalpakjin ref and is usually a cold working procedure. During assembly, a flare nut is used to secure the flared tubing s tapered end to the also tapered fitting, producing a pressure resistant, leak tight seal. Flared connections offer a high degree of long term reliability and for this reason are often used in mission critical and inaccessible locations. The tool used to flare tubing consists of a die that grips the tube and a mandrel that is forced into the end of the tube to form the flare by cold working. The most common flare fitting standards in use today are the 45 degree Society of Automotive Engineers SAE style, and the 37 degree AN thread AN style, also used with the JIC fitting JIC system. The AN JIC style generally has a higher pressure rating for a given size tubing. SAE and AN JIC fittings are completely incompatible due to the different flare angle. Further, AN fittings or those complying with subsequent standards and JIC fittings are not interchangeable for design controlled applications due to differing quality standards.

Orphan date December 2009 Shrink fitting is a technique in which pieces of a structure are heated or cooled, employing the phenomenon of thermal expansion , to make a joint. For example, the thermal expansion of a piece of a metallic drainpipe allows a builder to fit the cooler piece to it. As the adjoined pieces reach the same temperature, the joint becomes strained and stronger. Another example is fitting the iron strip around the edge of a cartwheel . The strip will be heated and expands to the wheel s diameter , and is fitted around it. After cooling, the iron rim contracts, binding tightly in place. A common method used in industry is the use of induction shrink fitting which refers to the use of induction heating technology to pre heat metal components between 150 C and 300 C thereby causing them to expand and allow for the insertion or removal of another component. Other methods of shrink fitting include compression shrink fitting which uses a cryogen such as liquid nitrogen to cool the insert, while heating the housing. This technique falls under the broader category of interference fit s.

Fitting s theorem is a mathematics mathematical theorem proved by Hans Fitting . It can be stated as follows If M and N are nilpotent group nilpotent normal subgroup s of a group mathematics group G , then their product MN is also a nilpotent normal subgroup of G if, moreover, M is nilpotent of class m and N is nilpotent of class n , then MN is nilpotent of class at most m n . By mathematical induction induction it follows also that the subgroup generated by a finite collection of nilpotent normal subgroups is nilpotent. This can be used to show that the Fitting subgroup of certain types of groups including all finite group s is nilpotent. However, a subgroup generated by an infinite collection of nilpotent normal subgroups need not be nilpotent. Order theoretic statement In terms of order theory , part of Fitting s theorem can be stated as The set of nilpotent normal subgroups form a lattice of subgroups . Thus the nilpotent normal subgroups of a finite group also form a bounded lattice, and have a top element, the Fitting subgroup. However, nilpotent normal subgroups do not in general form a complete lattice , as a subgroup generated by an infinite collection of nilpotent normal subgroups need not be nilpotent, though it will be normal. The join of all nilpotent normal subgroups is still defined as the Fitting subgroup, but it need not be nilpotent. Category Theorems in group theory Abstract algebra stub ... more details

In commutative algebra , the Fitting ideals of a finitely generated module over a commutative ring describe the obstructions to generating the module by a given number of elements.

The Fitting ideals do not depend on the choice of generators and relations of M . Some authors defined the Fitting ideal I M to be the first nonzero Fitting ideal Fitt sub i sub M . Properties The Fitting ideals are increasing Fitt sub 0 sub M &sube Fitt sub 1 sub M &sube Fitt sub 2 sub M ... If M can be generated by n elements then Fitt sub n sub M R , and if R is local the converse holds. We have Fitt sub 0 sub M Ann M the annihilator of M , and Ann M Fitt sub i sub M Fitt sub i &minus 1 sub M , so in particular if M can be generated by n elements then Ann M sup n sup Fitt sub 0 sub M . Examples If M is free of rank n then the Fitting ideals Fitt sub i sub M are zero for i n and R for i n . If M is a finite abelian group of order M considered as a module over the integers then the Fitting ideal Fitt sub 0 sub M is the ideal M .

A fitting model sometimes fit model is a person who is used by a fashion designer or clothing manufacturing manufacturer to check the fit, drape and visual appearance of a design on a real human being, effectively acting as a live mannequin . A person is selected to work as a fitting model primarily on criteria matching the desired measurement specifications of the designer or manufacturer. These specifications generally consist of height, bust waist hip circumference, arm and leg length, shoulder width, and a myriad of other measurements as indicated by the garment type. This is the case whether the garments are for women or men of any size the Pattern grading grading of construction patterns is often tested on a variety of fitting models to be sure that increases in size are translated accurately and evenly across the range. Beyond merely wearing the garment for inspection, a fitting model can become an integral role in the design process commenting on garments and materials with regards to fit, movement and feel on flesh, and objective feedback on the fit and design of the garment in the stead of the consumer. Ultimately, a fitting model aids in confirming that the sizing, design and Cut clothing cut of the garment to be produced meets the designer s specifications and intentions.

shipbuilding Fitting out , or outfitting , is the process in modern shipbuilding that follows the float out of a vessel and precedes sea trials . It is the period when all the remaining construction of the ship is completed and readied for delivery to her owners. Since most of the fitting out process is interior work, this stage can overlap with latter stages, such as the sea trials. Launching floating After a vessel has been floated in contemporary shipbuilding or launched in traditional shipbuilding , it is then towed out of its drydock and moored at a fitting out berth. While still afloat, its construction is then continued. Depending on the type of vessel, fitting out can last weeks or many months. Vessels with comparatively minimal space for human occupation, such as oil tankers, bulk carriers and container ships, can take the least time for fitting. Conversely, passenger ship s take the longest. The process can include completion of the superstructure, installation of the ship s power plant, engines, and other machinery, interior equipment and systems, including electrical, plumbing, and HVAC, finishing of interior spaces, and installation of furnishings. Whatever construction is completed during fitting is also dependent on the shipyard s capabilities and the availability of equipment prior to floating. For example, Queen Mary 2 was originally to have its propeller pods installed prior to floating, but this was not done until the fitting out stage. Contemporary ship construction usually has the vessel returning to drydock several times again for installation of propulsion mechanisms such as propulsion pods in contemporary vessels and for the painting of surfaces below the waterline.

JIC fittings , defined by the Society of Automotive Engineers SAE J514 and MIL F 18866 standards, are a type of flare fitting machined with a 37 degree flare seating surface. JIC Joint Industry Council fittings are widely used in fuel delivery and Hydraulics fluid power applications, especially where extremely high pressure is involved. The SAE J514 standard replaces the MS16142 military specification , although some tooling is still listed under MS16142. JIC fittings are dimensionally identical to AN thread AN Army Navy fittings, but are produced to less exacting tolerances and are generally less costly. 45 degree flare fittings are similar in appearance, but are not interchangeable. JIC fitting systems have three components that make a tubing assembly fitting, flare nut, and sleeve. As with other flared connection systems, the seal is achieved through metal to metal contact between the finished surface of the fitting nose and the inside diameter of the flared tubing. The sleeve is used to evenly distribute the compressive forces of the flare nut to the flared end of the tube. Materials commonly used to fabricate JIC fittings include forging forged carbon steel , forged stainless steel , forged brass , machined brass, Monel and Cupronickel nickel copper alloys.
