  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. 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 ]

    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 ...

  6. Hypsometric equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypsometric_equation

    The hydrostatic equation: =, where is the density [kg/m 3], is used to generate the equation for hydrostatic equilibrium, written in differential form: =. This is combined with the ideal gas law:

  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. Fluid bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_bearing

    The moving parts do not come into contact, so there is no sliding friction; the load force is supported solely by the pressure of the moving fluid. There are two principal ways of getting the fluid into the bearing: In fluid static, hydrostatic and many gas or air bearings, the fluid is pumped in through an orifice or through a porous material ...

  9. Hydrostatic test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_test

    A hydrostatic test is a way in which pressure vessels such as pipelines, plumbing, gas cylinders, boilers and fuel tanks can be tested for strength and leaks. The test involves filling the vessel or pipe system with a liquid, usually water, which may be dyed to aid in visual leak detection , and pressurization of the vessel to the specified ...
