The main difference is the cause: gravity for hydrostatic, and solute concentration for osmotic. This leads to different ways ...
A hydrostatic stress is one for which the diagonal terms of the stress tensor are of equal value and the off-diagonal terms are zero. For this situation the diagonal terms are equal to -p, where p is ...
Unlike conventional ball or roller-based linear guides, hydrostatic guidance systems eliminate all metal-to-metal contact. The guide carriages move on a thin cushion of high-pressure fluid, which ...
