| eccentricity |
(a) A way of describing the orbit of an object. Squashed or stretched circles are known as ellipses. The more circular an orbit is, the lower its eccentricity, e. Thus a circle has e = 0 while a straight line has e = 1. (b) Goblins who eat sherbert whilst standing on their heads. (Kids, don't try this at home. Sherbert hurts if you get it up your nose.)

As applied to tubular products, the center of the inside diameter differs from the center of the outside diameter indicating wall variation. This is a problem associated with seamless tubing.
