Description
Calculation model
The calculation model for which to supply part parameters. The default is MIL-HDBK-217 FN2. The model determines the parameters that appear in the Prediction Data pane.
Part classification
The class of the part. This display-only field indicates that all inserted records are for parts with a General part classification.
Category
