2. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

   Pressure-sensitive adhesive ( PSA, self-adhesive, self-stick adhesive) is a type of nonreactive adhesive which forms a bond when pressure is applied to bond the adhesive with a surface. No solvent, water, or heat is needed to activate the adhesive. It is used in pressure-sensitive tapes, labels, glue dots, stickers, sticky note pads, automobile ...

3. Pressure–volume diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure–volume_diagram

   A pressure–volume diagram (or PV diagram, or volume–pressure loop) [ 1] is used to describe corresponding changes in volume and pressure in a system. They are commonly used in thermodynamics, cardiovascular physiology, and respiratory physiology . PV diagrams, originally called indicator diagrams, were developed in the 18th century as tools ...

4. Air current - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_current

   Air current. In meteorology, air currents are concentrated areas of winds. They are mainly due to differences in atmospheric pressure or temperature. They are divided into horizontal and vertical currents; both are present at mesoscale while horizontal ones dominate at synoptic scale. Air currents are not only found in the troposphere, but ...

5. Capillary pressure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary_pressure

   In fluid statics, capillary pressure is the pressure between two immiscible fluids in a thin tube (see capillary action), resulting from the interactions of forces between the fluids and solid walls of the tube. Capillary pressure can serve as both an opposing or driving force for fluid transport and is a significant property for research and ...

6. Pressure-gradient force - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-gradient_force

   In fluid mechanics, the pressure-gradient force is the force that results when there is a difference in pressure across a surface. In general, a pressure is a force per unit area across a surface. A difference in pressure across a surface then implies a difference in force, which can result in an acceleration according to Newton's second law of ...

   It’s unlike that the Pap smear will actually be replaced, given that it’s been the go-to method of screening for cervical cancer for ages, Greves says. “But doing this test is better than ...
