2-Boolean Operation (Group: Design)
A Boolean operation usually affects two objects at any one time, and is the basis of the binary systems that underline most of computing. Boolean opertations are absolutely fundamental in CAD, and allow the creation of complex forms and compositions by their succesive application to objects that may initially be quite simple. Several of the later case studies illustrate just how important they are in generating form. Learning how to think in terms of applying successive Boolean operations to generate a particular form is essential for CAD users. Examples of some Boolean operations; add, subtract,intersect.

New and better explanation
The map overlay algorithm is a powerful
instrument that can be used for various other applications. One particular
useful one is performing the Boolean operations union, intersection, and
difference on two polygons PI and P2. See Figure 2.7 for an example. Note that
the output of the operations might no longer he a polygon. It can consist of a
number of polygonal regions, some with holes.
To perform the Boolean operation we regard the polygons as planar maps
whose bounded faces are labeled PI and P2, respectively. We compute the overlay
of these maps, and we extract the faces in the overlay whose labels correspond
to the particular Boolean operation we want to perform. If we want to compute
the intersection P1∩P2, we extract the faces in the overlay that are labeled
with PI and P2. If we want to compute the union P1U P2, we extract the faces in
the overlay that are labeled with P1 or P2. And if we want to compute the
difference P1\P2, we extract the faces
in the overlay that are labeled with P1 and not with P2.
Because every intersection point of an edge of P1 and an edge of P2 is a vertex of P1∩ P2, the running time of the algorithm is O(nlogn + klog n), where it is the total
number of vertices in P1 and P2, and k is the complexity of P1∩ P2. The same
holds for the other Boolean operations: every intersection of two edges is a
vertex of the final result, no matter which operation we want to perform. We
immediately get the following result.
Corollary 2.7 Let Pi be a polygon with n1 vertices
and P2 a polygon with n2 vertices, and let it n:=n1 + n2. Then P1 ∩ P2, P1 U
P2, and P1 \ P2can each be computed in O(nlogn
+ klog n) time, where k is the
complexity of the output.

3-Boring Cycle (in G-coding) ( Group: Programming)
The boring operation requires that the tool move at a programmed feedrate when it is between points R and Z.The format of the statement for calling the boring cycle subroutine is G85XxYyZzRrFfLl

New and better explanation
G81 It is a canned cycle for drilling holes in a single
drill stroke without pecking. Its motion is feed down (into the hole) and
rapid up (out of the hole). A Z-depth must be included.
G82 It is a canned
cycle for counter boring or countersinking holes. Its action is similar to G81,
except that it has a timed dwell at the bottom ol the Z-stroke. A Z-depth must
be included.
G85 It is a canned cycle far boring holes with a single-point
boring tool. Its action is similar to G81, except that it feeds in and feeds
out. A Z-depth must be included.
G86 It is also a canned cycle for boring holes with a
single-point boring tool. Its action is similar to G81, except that it stops
and waits at the bottom of the Z-stroke. Then the cutter rapids out when the
operator depresses the START button. It is used to permit the operator to back
off the boring tool so it does not score the bore upon withdrawal. A Z-depth
must be included.
G89 It is another
canned cycle for boring holes with a single-point boring tool. Its action is
similar to G82, except that it feeds out rather than rapids out. It is designed
for boring to a shoulder. A Z-depth must be included.

4-Muri ( Group: Management)
Overburdening People
or Equipment - This is in some respect on the opposite end of the spectrum from
muda. Muri is pushing a machine or person beyond natural limits. Overburdening
people results in safety and quality problems. Overburdening equipment causes
breakdowns and defects. ( Jeffrey K. Liker, The Toyota Way, McGraw-Hill,
2004, p.114 )
New and better explanation
Muri is all the unreasonable work that
management imposes on workers and machines because of poor organization, such
as carrying heavy weights, moving things around, dangerous tasks, even working
significantly faster than usual. It is pushing a person or a machine beyond its
natural limits. This may simply be asking a greater level of performance from a
process than it can handle without taking shortcuts and informally modifying
decision criteria. Unreasonable work is almost always a cause of multiple
variations.
To link these three
concepts is simple in TPS and thus Lean. Firstly, muri focuses on the preparation and planning of the process, or
what work can be avoided proactively by design. Next, mura then focuses on how the work design is implemented and the
elimination of fluctuation at the scheduling or operations level, such as
quality and volume. Muda is then
discovered after the process is in place and is dealt with reactively. It is
seen through variation in output. It is the role of management to examine the muda, in the processes and eliminate the
deeper causes by considering the connections to the muri and mura of the
system. The muda and mura inconsistencies must be fed back to
the muri, or planning, stage for the next project.

5-International
tolerance grade (IT) ( Group: IT)
A group of tolerances that vary depending on the basic size but
that provide the same relative level of accuracy within a given grade.
(Edward G. Hoffman Christopher J: Mccauley,Shop reference for
students and apprentices,p:223)
New and better explanation
International
tolerance (IT) grade is
a system of tabularized tolerances found in the ANSI standards and the Machinery 's Handbook that vary based on
the basic size. There are eighteen grades ranging from IT01, ITO, IT I ...
to...IT 16. The Iower the IT number, the tighter the tolerance. The IT grades
in Figure GNT 8 ranging from 01 to about 8 are used for measuring instruments,
8 to 16 for materials, 5 to 11 for defining fits, and 12 to 16 for large
tolerances.
