  2. Splash (fluid mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splash_(fluid_mechanics)

    Slow motion video of a fruit falling into water. In fluid mechanics, a splash is a sudden disturbance to the otherwise quiescent free surface of a liquid (usually water).The disturbance is typically caused by a solid object suddenly hitting the surface, although splashes can occur in which moving liquid supplies the energy.

  3. Free surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_surface

    Disturbed free surface of a sea, viewed from below. In physics, a free surface is the surface of a fluid that is subject to zero parallel shear stress, [1] such as the interface between two homogeneous fluids. [2] An example of two such homogeneous fluids would be a body of water (liquid) and the air in the Earth's atmosphere (gas mixture).

  4. Reach extender - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reach_extender

    A 36 in (910 mm) reach extender with a secondary trigger and a pole that can be rotated 90 degrees. A reach extender (or reacher, grabber arm, helping hand, trash picker, picker-upper, extended gripper, long arm gripper, extended reach grabber, grabber tool, litter picker, or caliper) is a handheld mechanical tool used to increase the range of a person's reach and grasp when grabbing objects.

  5. Grab (tool) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grab_(tool)

    A grab or mechanical grab is a mechanical device with two or more jaws (sometime clamshell-shaped), used to pick things up or to capture things. Some types include: Roundnose grab; Clamshell grab; Orange-peel grab

  7. Drop impact - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drop_impact

    A drop striking a liquid surface; in this case, both the drop and the surface are water. In fluid dynamics, drop impact occurs when a drop of liquid strikes a solid or liquid surface. The resulting outcome depends on the properties of the drop, the surface, and the surrounding fluid, which is most commonly a gas.

  8. Splash lubrication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splash_lubrication

    An engine that uses splash lubrication requires neither oil pump nor oil filter. Splash lubrication is an antique system whereby scoops on the big-ends of the connecting rods dip into the oil sump and splash the lubricant upwards towards the cylinders, creating an oil mist which settles into droplets.

  9. Splash zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splash_zone

    In offshore construction, the splash zone is the transition from air to water when lowering heavy burdens into the sea. The overall efforts applied on the crane change dramatically when the load starts touching water, up to the point where it is completely submerged.
