  2. Bootstrap (front-end framework) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrap_(front-end...

    The most prominent components of Bootstrap are its layout components, as they affect an entire web page. The basic layout component is called "Container", as every other element in the page is placed in it. Developers can choose between a fixed-width container and a fluid-width container.

  3. List of paradoxes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_paradoxes

    Bootstrap paradox (also ontological paradox): You send information/an object to your past self, but you only have that information/object because in the past, you received it from your future self. This means the information/object was never created, yet still exists.

  4. Liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid

    A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a nearly constant volume independent of pressure. It is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being solid, gas, and plasma), and is the only state with a definite volume but no fixed shape.

  5. Supplee's paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supplee's_paradox

    If the object is less dense than the fluid, the difference between these two vectors is an upward pointing vector, the buoyant force, and the object will rise. If things are the other way around, it will sink. If the object and the fluid have equal density, the object is said to have neutral buoyancy and it will neither rise nor sink.

  6. Pascal's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_law

    Pascal's law (also Pascal's principle [1] [2] [3] or the principle of transmission of fluid-pressure) is a principle in fluid mechanics given by Blaise Pascal that states that a pressure change at any point in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid such that the same change occurs everywhere. [4]

  7. Volume viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_viscosity

    Physically, volume viscosity represents the irreversible resistance, over and above the reversible resistance caused by isentropic bulk modulus, to a compression or expansion of a fluid. [1] At the molecular level, it stems from the finite time required for energy injected in the system to be distributed among the rotational and vibrational ...

  8. Fluid–structure interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid–structure_interaction

    If the interaction between the fluid and the structure is weak, only one fixed-point iteration is required within each time step. These so-called staggered or loosely coupled methods do not enforce the equilibrium on the fluid–structure interface within a time step but they are suitable for the simulation of aeroelasticity with a heavy and ...

  9. Hydraulic accumulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_accumulator

    A hydraulic accumulator is a pressure storage reservoir in which an incompressible hydraulic fluid is held under pressure that is applied by an external source of mechanical energy. The external source can be an engine, a spring , a raised weight , or a compressed gas .
