  2. Car hydraulics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_hydraulics

    In 1979, Japan received a shipment of Low rider magazines, which showed on the cover a lowered Chevy in front of Mount Fuji. This magazine, Orlie's Lowriding Magazine, was a profitable magazine that advertised lowriders and hydraulic kits for their consumers. [4] Along with these magazines came mail-order forms to purchase automotive hydraulics ...

  3. HEC-RAS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HEC-RAS

    The first version of HEC-RAS was released in 1995. [5] This HEC-RAS 1.0 solves the same numerical equation of the 1968 HEC-2. Prior to the 2016 update to Version 5.0, the program was one-dimensional, meaning that there is no direct modeling of the hydraulic effect of cross section shape changes, bends, and other two- and three-dimensional ...

  4. Lowrider - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowrider

    A lowrider or low rider is a customized car with a lowered body that emerged among African American & Mexican American youth in the 1940s. [3] Lowrider also refers to the driver of the car and their participation in lowrider car clubs , which remain a part of African American Hip Hop culture & Chicano culture and have since expanded ...

  5. Pipe network analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_network_analysis

    In fluid dynamics, pipe network analysis is the analysis of the fluid flow through a hydraulics network, containing several or many interconnected branches. The aim is to determine the flow rates and pressure drops in the individual sections of the network. This is a common problem in hydraulic design.

  6. Lowrider (magazine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowrider_(magazine)

    Lowrider was an American automobile magazine, focusing almost exclusively on the style known as a lowrider.It first appeared in 1977, produced out of San Jose, California, by a trio of San Jose State students.

  7. Minor losses in pipe flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minor_Losses_in_pipe_flow

    Minor losses in pipe flow are a major part in calculating the flow, pressure, or energy reduction in piping systems. Liquid moving through pipes carries momentum and energy due to the forces acting upon it such as pressure and gravity.

  8. Linear actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_actuator

    Hydraulic actuators or hydraulic cylinders typically involve a hollow cylinder having a piston inserted in it. An unbalanced pressure applied to the piston generates a force that can move an external object. Since liquids are nearly incompressible, a hydraulic cylinder can provide controlled precise linear displacement of the piston. The ...

  9. Hydraulic jumps in rectangular channels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_Jumps_in...

    The relationship given in Figure 8 below was developed for a horizontal, rectangular channel with q = 10 ft 2 /s. This graph is limited by the following due to the nature of a hydraulic jump: 1. y 2 /y 1 > 1: depth increases over the jump so that y 2 > y 1 2. Fr 2 < 1: downstream flow must be subcritical 3. Fr 1 > 1: upstream flow must be ...
