drillable

For rocks at the surface or within drillable depths, observations are primarily geological in nature, and, in general, they indicate great complexity in structure and great spatial variation in composition.

Select a box of suitable shape (squarish), size (about 120 mm to 150 mm square), and material (non-brittle, drillable, cuttable plastic).

The pup is preequipped with a drillable, millable, or retrievable plug. Where fracturing is anticipated, these are often drillable or dissolvable ball-activated check valves.

All fertilizers tested are drillable at relative humidities below 50 per cent, but no fertilizer remains drillable when exposed to a humidity above its hygroscopic point.

In previous work (10) it was found that materials of low initial moisture content remained drillable for longer periods of time, but became undrillable at about the same moisture content as did materials of high initial moisture content.

To indicate to the business user of the report that more detailed information is available behind the summary group level, the mouse pointer turns into a magnifying glass icon when it floats over a drillable section (for example, the yellow count field of customer contacts, located in the Group Header #1 section).

We spent some time discussing the notion of 'drillable' experiments, which can be introduced to students at an early age, then periodically revisited and explored in greater detail as students progress through their educational careers.

Although spreadability and drillability often work in opposing directions, with spreadable media generally reaching a larger, less engaged audience, and drillable media typically reaching a smaller, yet more engaged one, the possibility exists for a text to be simultaneously spreadable and drillable (Mittell, “Forensic Fandom”).

Lost became a bit of a cultural sensation and has inspired a wide range of drillable TV series such as Mr. Robot, Westworld, and Severance. Each of these shows teased the audience with the nature of its basic reality yet had deeply loyal fans who scoured episodes for possible theories concerning the uncertain storylines.

The drillable centre-line determining device disclosed in this patent takes the form of an interposer which has on its underside a projecting location pin perpendicular to its upper surface which acts as a planarisation platform.

A drillable robot is capable of placing its end link in any orientation in the pencil of planes containing its first link.

A second explanation and provision for practice of drillable items will reinforce your presentation for those who need a second exposure.
