Conic


Definition:

  • (a.) Alt. of Conical
  • (n.) A conic section.

Example Sentences:

  • (10) Considering both the present data and previous findings, Palaeognath birds appear to be a peculiar and monophyletic group, characterized by: 1), a conical acrosome surrounding the nucleus; 2), a fibrous sheath around most of the axoneme; and 3), an elongated distal centriole occupying the entire midpiece.

  • (16) The concept of stimulation threshold is generalized to three dimensions, and an excitability surface is constructed, which for cardiac muscle is approximately conical in shape.
  • (17) The results showed that the resisting areas are larger in pyramidal than in conical preparations.
  • (18) The hooks (105 by 24 nm) each displayed a conical protrusion at the proximal end, a concave cavity at the distal end, and helically arranged subunits.
  • (19) In practice, the pins are introduced in the same way as the previously described procedure, by they must protrude beyond the opposite wall by 6-8 mm; the difference is in the screwing of the "ARUM" nut: first it is screwed as the reduction stress is increased so its conical part penetrates between the fracture edges; then the pin is cut; and the nut is unscrewed so the cut end of the pin will be included in the space of its base.
  • (20) Eight conical holes drilled in the side of the chamber serve for the insertion of plugs with attachments for perfusion, rapid injection of small amounts of reagents, temperature measurements or for heating the interior of the chamber.

Countersink


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To chamfer or form a depression around the top of (a hole in wood, metal, etc.) for the reception of the head of a screw or bolt below the surface, either wholly or in part; as, to countersink a hole for a screw.
  • (v. t.) To cause to sink even with or below the surface; as, to countersink a screw or bolt into woodwork.
  • (n.) An enlargement of the upper part of a hole, forming a cavity or depression for receiving the head of a screw or bolt.
  • (n.) A drill or cutting tool for countersinking holes.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Countersinking implants in extraction sites was critical; labial bone implant defects should be grafted with particulate HA.
  • (2) Screws will give a firm hold though you’ll need to pre-drill a hole with the 2mm drill bit and countersink the hole for a flush finish.
