2. Suction cup - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suction_cup

   The working face of the suction cup is made of elastic, flexible material and has a curved surface. [3] When the center of the suction cup is pressed against a flat, non-porous surface, the volume of the space between the suction cup and the flat surface is reduced, which causes the air or water between the cup and the surface to be expelled past the rim of the circular cup.

6. Nano-suction technology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nano-suction_technology

   Nano-suction is a technology that uses vacuum, negative fluid pressure and millions of nano-sized suction cups to securely adhere any object to a flat non-porous surface. When the nano-suction object is pressed against a flat surface, millions of miniature suction cups create a large vacuum, generating a strong suction force that can hold a ...

The only times multiple vortices may be visible are when the tornado is first forming or when condensation and debris are balanced such that subvortices are apparent without ...
