    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrolean_traverse

    In climbing, a Tyrolean traverse is a technique that enables climbers to cross a void between two fixed points, such as between a headland and a detached rock pillar (e.g. a sea stack), or between two points that enable the climbers to cross over an obstacle such as chasm or ravine, or over a fast moving river.

  3. Slurry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slurry

    A slurry composed of glass beads in silicone oil flowing down an inclined plane Potato starch slurry. A slurry is a mixture of denser solids suspended in liquid, usually water. The most common use of slurry is as a means of transporting solids or separating minerals, the liquid being a carrier that is pumped on a device such as a centrifugal pump.

  4. Slurry transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slurry_transport

    Slurry transport uses several methods: hydraulic conveying; conventional lean slurry conveying; and high concentration slurry disposal (HCSD). The latter, HCSD, is a relatively modern approach, which is used to transfer high throughputs of fine fly ash over long distances (>10 km or 6.2 mi) using high pressure diaphragm pumps with velocities of around 2 m/s.

    Rodeo slacklining is the art and practice of cultivating balance on a piece of rope or webbing draped in slack between two anchor points, typically about 15 to 30 feet (455 to 915 cm) apart and 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90 cm) off the ground in the center.

  8. Slurry wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slurry_wall

    A slurry wall is a civil engineering technique used to build reinforced concrete walls in areas of soft earth close to open water, or with a high groundwater table. [1] This technique is typically used to build diaphragm (water-blocking) walls surrounding tunnels and open cuts, and to lay foundations .

  9. Foam concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foam_concrete

    Foamed concrete can be produced with dry densities of 400 to 1600 kg/m 3 (25 lb/ft 3 to 100 lb/ft 3), with 7-day strengths of approximately 1 to 10 N/mm 2 (145 to 1450 psi) respectively. Foam concrete is fire resistant, and its thermal and acoustical insulation properties make it ideal for a wide range of purposes, from insulating floors and ...
