  2. Hydraulic redistribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_redistribution

    Hydraulic redistribution is a passive mechanism where water is transported from moist to dry soils via subterranean networks. [1] It occurs in vascular plants that commonly have roots in both wet and dry soils, especially plants with both taproots that grow vertically down to the water table, and lateral roots that sit close to the surface.

  3. Hydraulic lift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_lift

    Hydraulic lift may refer to: A type of hydraulic machinery. Hydraulic elevator; A form of hydraulic redistribution, a plant phenomenon

  4. Telescopic cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_cylinder

    Hydraulic telescopic cylinders are often limited to a maximum hydraulic pressure of 2000-3000 psi. This is because the outward forces produced by internal hydraulic pressure tends to expand the steel sleeve sections. Too much pressure will cause the nested sleeves to balloon outward, bind the mechanism and stop moving.

  5. Hydraulic machinery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_machinery

    The hydraulic fluid reservoir holds excess hydraulic fluid to accommodate volume changes from: cylinder extension and contraction, temperature driven expansion and contraction, and leaks. The reservoir is also designed to aid in separation of air from the fluid and also work as a heat accumulator to cover losses in the system when peak power is ...

  7. Hydraulic signaling in plants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_signaling_in_plants

    Hydraulic signaling is fast and effective because of the cohesion and tension properties of water. [1] Hydraulic signals can be propagated downward or upward, relaying water potential gradients throughout the entire plant. Hydraulic signals can be sensed in a few ways all relating to how an increase in water potential affects the plants.

  8. Lift table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_table

    The most common lift table design incorporates hydraulic cylinders and an electrically powered pump to actuate the scissor lifting mechanism. Lift tables can also be driven by pneumatic sources, trapezoidal-threaded screw drives, push chains or by hydraulic foot pump when the load is not heavy. The choice of drive mechanism depends on factors ...

  9. Hydraulic pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_pump

    A hydraulic pump is a mechanical source of power that converts mechanical power into hydraulic energy (hydrostatic energy i.e. flow, pressure). Hydraulic pumps are used in hydraulic drive systems and can be hydrostatic or hydrodynamic. They generate flow with enough power to overcome pressure induced by a load at the pump outlet.
