	Hydrostatics
		Hydrostatics is about the pressures exerted by a fluid at rest.
		This mechanism is the hydrostatic analogue of the lever, and is the basis of hydraulic activation.
		The column of water or hydrostatic engine is the inverse of the force pump, used to turn a large head (pressure) of water into rotary motion.

	Hydrostatics
		Abstract: The importance of hydrostatics for ectocochleate cephalopods and for the reconstruction of their lifestyle as well as the implications of hydrostatics and further physical conditions for the ontogenetic shell formation process are discussed.
		Yet, since hydrostatics represents a most important prerequisite for understanding the various shell shapes and their presumable functions, the discussion of the hydrostatic behaviour of shells is an inevitable pre- condition for reconstructing the lifestyle, which in any case should precede conclusions derived from other considerations.
		Hydrostatics at least offers an outstanding tool for the recognition and certain exclusion of incorrect ideas as to the former life- style of ectocochleate cephalopods.

	Hydrostatics - Definition, explanation
		Hydrostatics, also known as fluid statics, is the study of fluids at rest.
		The characteristic of any fluid at rest is when a force is exerted on any particle of the fluid is the same in any direction.
		Galileo, also was a major father of hydrostatics.

	Release Notes
		Fixed a bug in hydrostatics calculations when using the "fixed trim" option in which the LCG was not being properly derived from the resultant LCB.
		Modified the hydrostatics calculations so that heel and trim are reported in the Excel output even for upright calculations where no CG has been specified since trim could be non-zero for the "Waterline Height and Trim" input flotation plane option.
		Also, fixed a bug in realtime hydrostatics which caused the sectional area curve drawn in the active viewport to gradually increase/decrease to infinity as the model is manipulated if realtime hydros is turned on before a hydrostatics computation has been made.

		In a hydrostatic drive, a rotating cylinder drum driven by a combustion motor pumps oil into a driving gear at high pressure (420 bar) by means of pistons.
		A significant advantage of the hydrostatic drive is that both acceleration and braking are effectively achieved by depressing the pedal to adjust the swash plate of the vehicle -and without any wear.
		Another point in favor of the hydrostatic drive is that the vehicle runs smoothly at the same speed once it has been set - no matter the resistance, such as when it goes over a threshold.

	Fluid statics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fluid statics (also called hydrostatics) is the science of fluids at rest, and is a sub-field within fluid mechanics.
		This is due to the hydrostatic pressure in the fluid.
		In the case of a container ship, for instance, its weight force is balanced by a buoyant force from the displaced water, allowing it to float.

	GHS - Hydrostatics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		In the context of naval architecture, "hydrostatics" refers to the study of the buoyant forces and attendant properties which are involved in supporting a floating body at rest in calm or flat water.
		Applying hydrostatic principles to multiple-waterplane systems allows the liquid in tanks to contribute to the forces involved in modeling a floating ship.
		While GHS was developed specifically to address the kind of hydrostatics encountered in naval architecture, ship operation and marine salvage, it is not restricted to these fields.

	Hydrostatics of kayak designs, form coefficients, volumetric and waterplane properties
		Aesthetics are critical as the 'first impression' but hydrostatics and form coefficients allow a deeper understanding of the hull as a physical body interacting with a fluid.
		Since both kayaks will have the same viscous resistance, kayak X will be more efficient because it is not penalized by the extra weight.
		This ratio is useful only in conjunction with other hydrostatic indicators.
