Noun phrase
/ˈʌndərˌsaɪz kɔr/
"Undersize core" refers to a component or element of smaller-than-standard size, often used in contexts involving manufacturing, construction, or engineering. The term is relatively specialized and thus may be encountered more frequently in written contexts, such as technical reports, specifications, or discussions within relevant industries rather than in everyday oral conversations.
The engineers decided to replace the undersize core in the reactor to improve efficiency.
Инженеры решили заменить недостаточный по размеру сердечник в реакторе, чтобы повысить эффективность.
Due to an undersize core, the furnace was unable to reach the required temperature.
Из-за недостаточного по размеру сердечника печь не смогла достичь необходимой температуры.
An undersize core can lead to structural weaknesses in the final product.
Недостаточный по размеру сердечник может привести к структурным слабостям в конечном продукте.
Though "undersize core" is not directly linked to common idiomatic expressions, components in manufacturing can be connected to certain idioms in broader discussions about effectiveness or standards.
"Cut from the same cloth" - As engineers found, using undersize cores can yield results that are cut from the same cloth as standard components. Как выяснили инженеры, использование недостаточных по размеру сердечников может привести к результатам, которые ничем не отличаются от стандартных компонентов.
"Raise the bar" - The introduction of quality control measures emphasized the need to avoid using any undersize core and to raise the bar for materials used. Введение мер по контролю качества подчеркивало необходимость избегать использования недостаточных по размеру сердечников и повышать стандарты для используемых материалов.
"On the same wavelength" - When discussing the specifications, it is crucial for all team members to be on the same wavelength regarding the implications of using an undersize core. При обсуждении спецификаций важно, чтобы все члены команды были на одной волне относительно последствий использования недостаточного по размеру сердечника.
The word "undersize" is a compound of "under" and "size," where "under" suggests less than a normal extent, while "size" pertains to dimension or extent. The term "core" originates from the Old French "cor," meaning the central part of something; hence the combined phrase denotes a core that falls below the accepted dimensional standard.
Synonyms: - Substandard core - Small core - Insufficient core
Antonyms: - Oversize core - Standard core - Full-sized core
