  2. Strength of ships - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_ships

    Tertiary strength and loads are the forces, strength, and bending response of individual sections of hull plate between stiffeners, and the behaviour of individual stiffener sections. Usually the tertiary loading is simpler to calculate: for most sections, there is a simple, maximum hydrostatic load or hydrostatic plus slamming load to calculate.

  3. Hydrostatics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatics

    For example, the absolute pressure compared to vacuum is p = ρ g Δ z + p 0 , {\displaystyle p=\rho g\Delta z+p_{\mathrm {0} },} where Δ z {\displaystyle \Delta z} is the total height of the liquid column above the test area to the surface, and p 0 is the atmospheric pressure , i.e., the pressure calculated from the remaining integral over ...

  4. Hydrostatic stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_stress

    In continuum mechanics, hydrostatic stress, also known as isotropic stress or volumetric stress, [1] is a component of stress which contains uniaxial stresses, but not shear stresses. [2] A specialized case of hydrostatic stress contains isotropic compressive stress, which changes only in volume, but not in shape. [ 1 ]

  5. Well control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_control

    Consider two wells, X and Y. Well X has a measured depth of 9,800 ft and a true vertical depth of 9,800 ft while well Y has measured depth of 10,380 ft while its true vertical depth is 9,800 ft. To calculate the hydrostatic pressure of the bottom hole, the true vertical depth is used because gravity acts (pulls) vertically down the hole. [2]

  7. Stress triaxiality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_Triaxiality

    In continuum mechanics, stress triaxiality is the relative degree of hydrostatic stress in a given stress state. [1] It is often used as a triaxiality factor, T.F, which is the ratio of the hydrostatic stress, σ m {\displaystyle \sigma _{m}} , to the Von Mises equivalent stress , σ e q {\displaystyle \sigma _{eq}} .

  8. Displacement (ship) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_(ship)

    Full load displacement and loaded displacement have almost identical definitions. Full load is defined as the displacement of a vessel when floating at its greatest allowable draft as approved by the load line assigning authority which is either the flag state (USCG etc) or a classification society (and designated by its " load line "). [ 9 ]

  9. Stribeck curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stribeck_curve

    An online calculator is available on www.tribonet.org that allows calculating Stribeck curve for line [16] and point [17] contacts. These tools are based on the load-sharing concept. Also molecular simulation based on classical force fields can be used for predicting the Stribeck curve. [18] Thereby, underlying molecular mechanisms can be ...
