  2. Drawdown (hydrology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawdown_(hydrology)

    Static level is the level of water in the well when no water is being removed from the well by pumping. [8] Water table is the upper level of the zone of saturation, an underground surface in which the soil or rock is permanently saturated with water. [9] Well yield is the volume of water per unit time that is produced by the well from pumping. [8]

  3. Yield (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(engineering)

    Yield strength testing involves taking a small sample with a fixed cross-section area and then pulling it with a controlled, gradually increasing force until the sample changes shape or breaks. This is called a tensile test. Longitudinal and/or transverse strain is recorded using mechanical or optical extensometers.

  4. Well test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_test

    In hydrology, a well test is conducted to evaluate the amount of water that can be pumped from a particular water well.More specifically, a well test will allow prediction of the maximum rate at which water can be pumped from a well, and the distance that the water level in the well will fall for a given pumping rate and duration of pumping.

  5. Airlift pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airlift_pump

    (The compressor is on the surface and no mechanical parts are needed in the well). However airlift wells must be much deeper than the water table to allow for submergence. Air is generally pumped at least as deep under the water as the water is to be lifted. (If the water table is 50 ft below, the air should be pumped 100 feet deep).

  6. Stress–strain curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_curve

    The stress of the flat region is defined as the lower yield point (LYP) and results from the formation and propagation of Lüders bands. Explicitly, heterogeneous plastic deformation forms bands at the upper yield strength and these bands carrying with deformation spread along the sample at the lower yield strength.

  7. Strain hardening exponent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_hardening_exponent

    The strain hardening exponent is sometimes regarded as a constant and occurs in forging and forming calculations as well as the formula known as Hollomon's equation (after John Herbert Hollomon Jr.) who originally posited it as:

  8. Depth in a well - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_in_a_well

    Well depth values taken during the drilling operation are referred to as "driller's depth". The "total depth" for the well, core depths and all analysis of core / mud and other materials from the drilling hole are measured in "drillers depth". Well depth values from the wireline loggers operation are referred to as "logger's depth". The loggers ...

  9. Mass balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_balance

    In environmental monitoring, the term budget calculations is used to describe mass balance equations where they are used to evaluate the monitoring data (comparing input and output, etc.). In biology , the dynamic energy budget theory for metabolic organisation makes explicit use of mass and energy balance.
