interaxis

Between axes (any sense).

Adjective

  1. Between axes (any sense).
    • It is possible to give smaller interaxis distance than the rotor radius when the shafts are inclined a small angle to each other (so-called " Synchropter ") , and the limiting case this interaxis distance approaching...
    • The single-axis approach to the design of the servosystem is expedient, but it ignores the effect of mechanical and electromechanical interaxis coupling. - 1959, NASA Technical Note - Issues 2981-2990, page 26:
    • A data subset is selected between the B2 and B3 axes as shown, with enlarged interaxis distance better showing the vertical bands in Fig. 10.6 (left) to select a data subset that corresponds on the map to regions with...
  2. Pertaining to the perpendicularity (or deviation therefrom) of a set of resolver windings when another set of windings is excited.
    • However, interaxis perpendicularity errors will be included [ see paragraph M ) ] . - 1954, Institute of Radio Engineers. Professional Group on Component Parts, Transactions - Volume 1, Issue 1 - Volume 4, Issue 3, page...
    • Inherent electrical errors, which consist of conformity and interaxis errors, result from rotor and stator ellipticity and eccentricity, and imperfect winding and flux distribution. - 1985, Harold A. Rothbart,...
    • For rotor interaxis error, one stator winding is excited; for stator interaxis error, one rotor winding is excited. - 1999, Rudolf F. Graf, Modern Dictionary of Electronics, page 384:

Origin

From inter- + axis.

Noun

  1. The space between two axes.
    • The doors, windows, niches, and the like, are then placed centrally in the interaxes. - 1842, Joseph Gwilt, Encyclopaedia of Architecture:
    • The small order is 16½ braccia high, i.e. eleven times the diameter of the base of the columns (which is 1½ braccia) and one and a half times the interaxis. - 2002, Leonardo Benevolo, The Architecture of the Renaissance...
    • The analyses performed have shown the importance of the longitudinal distance (interaxis) for in-series applications. - 2009, Alberto Lamberti, Leopoldo Franco, Giuseppe Roberto Tomasicchio, Coastal Structures 2007,...
  2. A line from the center of a regular solid to the center of one of its edges.
    • The principles of analytical geometry afford the means of determining how much the interaxes of the regular octahedron must be increased or diminished to equal the interaxes in these different forms. - 1854, James...
    • Owing to this I was only able, by breaking a number of the quartz pieces, to obtain one small crystal representing a distorted rhombic dodecahedron ∞ 0(110), i.e., one extended in the line of an octahedral or trigonal...
    • When the position is as given in the stereographic projection in Fig. 265, the angle over the axial-plane polar edges is the more acute, but if the pole were placed nearer to the crystallographic than to the interaxis,...
  3. The distance between the axes (centers of rotation) of two items that interact along a spiral groove, such as intermeshing screws or a vinyl record and needle.
    • Because the screws are intermeshing and conjugated, and their interaxis is fixed, the larger the channel depth h, the larger the screws external diameter D. - 1983, F. Martelli, Twin-Screw Extruders: A Basic...
    • In addition, TSE can either be intermeshing (Fig. 23.7), when the interaxis (l) is less than the sum of the radii of the two screws, that is when the flights of one screw penetrate into the channel of the other screw...
    • But the modulations of the groove, which produce micro changes in acceleration (by micro angular/tangential variations), lead to changes in the stalemate conditions of the cantilever by changing the orthogonal alignment...
