Buoyancy compensator (diving) — Stab jacket redirects here. For a type of body armor, see stab vest. A buoyancy compensator (or buoyancy control device, BC or BCD) is a piece of diving equipment worn by divers to provide: * life saving emergency buoyancy both underwater and on… … Wikipedia
Pontoon effect — Note that the pontoon on the right is completely submerged, while the pontoon on the left is almost completely out of the water. [Citation title = Baltimore Kinetic Sculpture Race 2004 Race Report url=http://www.kineticbaltimore.com/KSR/2004/… … Wikipedia
Stack effect — is the movement of air into and out of buildings, chimneys, flue gas stacks, or other containers, and is driven by buoyancy. Buoyancy occurs due to a difference in indoor to outdoor air density resulting from temperature and moisture differences … Wikipedia
Cheerio effect — In fluid mechanics, the cheerio effect is the tendency for small wettable floating objects to attract one another. The comedian and author Rich Hall called this effect cheeriomagnetization , using it as an example of a word that needed to be… … Wikipedia
Squat effect — The squat effect is the hydrodynamic phenomenon by which a vessel moving quickly through shallow water creates an area of lowered pressure under its keel that reduces the ship s buoyancy, particularly at the bow. The reduced buoyancy causes the… … Wikipedia
Shower-curtain effect — In physics, the shower curtain effect is the phenomenon in which a shower curtain gets blown inward with a running shower. The problem of the cause of this effect has been featured in Scientific American magazine, with several theories given to… … Wikipedia
Free surface effect — The free surface effect is one of several mechanisms where a craft can become unstable and roll over (capsize). It refers to the tendency of liquids and of aggregates of small solid objects, like seeds, gravel, or crushed ore which can act as… … Wikipedia
Cheerios effect — Five paper clips cling to each other, supported on the water’s surface by surface tension. One red paperclip has sunk to the bottom of the cup, showing that these paper clips don t float. In fluid mechanics, the Cheerios effect is the tendency… … Wikipedia
Surface effect ship — A Surface Effect Ship (SES) or Sidewall Hovercraft, is a watercraft or vessel that has both an air cushion, like a hovercraft, and twin hulls, like a catamaran. When the air cushion is in use, a small portion of the twin hulls remain in the water … Wikipedia
ground effect — noun the aerodynamic buoyancy produced by a cushion of air below a vehicle moving close to the ground … English new terms dictionary
Archimedes' principle — Physics. the law that a body immersed in a fluid is buoyed up by a force (buoyant force) equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the body. * * * Law of buoyancy, discovered by Archimedes, which states that any object that is completely or… … Universalium
