  2. Compression stockings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_stockings

    Compression stockings are elastic compression garments worn around the leg, compressing the limb. This reduces the diameter of distended veins and increases venous blood flow velocity and valve effectiveness. Compression therapy helps decrease venous pressure, prevents venous stasis and impairments of venous walls, and relieves heavy and aching ...

  3. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    Compressive strength. Measuring the compressive strength of a steel drum. In mechanics, compressive strength (or compression strength) is the capacity of a material or structure to withstand loads tending to reduce size (compression). It is opposed to tensile strength which withstands loads tending to elongate, resisting tension (being pulled ...

  4. Bulk modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_modulus

    Illustration of uniform compression. The bulk modulus(K{\displaystyle K}or B{\displaystyle B}or k{\displaystyle k}) of a substance is a measure of the resistance of a substance to bulk compression. It is defined as the ratio of the infinitesimalpressureincrease to the resulting relativedecrease of the volume.

  5. Compressibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility

    Thermodynamics. In thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, the compressibility (also known as the coefficient of compressibility[1] or, if the temperature is held constant, the isothermal compressibility[2]) is a measure of the instantaneous relative volume change of a fluid or solid as a response to a pressure (or mean stress) change.

  6. Fully fashioned stockings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fully_fashioned_stockings

    Fully fashioned stockings are made from sections of nylon fabric that are knitted flat from the top down in the shape of a profile view of a leg. These are then sewn together in the back forming the seam. The top is folded and sewn back on itself forming the welt and the shadow welt, with a finishing loop applied, forming the keyhole, to allow ...

  7. Compressor map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_map

    Compressor map. A compressor map is a chart which shows the performance of a turbomachinery compressor. This type of compressor is used in gas turbine engines, for supercharging reciprocating engines and for industrial processes, where it is known as a dynamic compressor. A map is created from compressor rig test results or predicted by a ...
