14Fluid compartments — in the mammalian body broadly comprise two compartments, each with several subdivisions: intracellular fluid, which makes up approximately 60 65% of body water, and extracellular fluid, which makes up the other 35 40% of body water. (For all… …
15Fluid balance — is the concept of human homeostasis that the amount of fluid lost from the body is equal to the amount of fluid taken in. Euvolemia is the state of normal body fluid volume.Water is necessary for all life on Earth. Humans can survive for several… …
16Fluid Drive — is the trademarked name that Chrysler Corporation assigned to a transmission driveline combination offered from 1939 through 1953 in Chryslers and Desotos, and from 1939 through 1954 in Dodge models. The fluid drive element was a hydraulic… …
17Pressure solution — or pressure dissolution in structural geology and diagenesis is a deformation mechanism that involves the dissolution of minerals at grain to grain contacts into an aqueous pore fluid in areas of relatively high stress and either deposition in… …
18Fluid power — is the technology of exploiting the properties of fluids to generate, control, and transmit power as a result of the pressurization of fluids.As the term fluid refers either to gases or to liquids, fluid power is also subdivided into the… …
19Fluid inclusions — are microscopic bubbles of liquid and gas that are trapped within crystals. As minerals often form from a liquid or aqueous medium, tiny blebs of that liquid can become trapped within the crystal structure or in healed fractures within a crystal …
20Fluid-structure interaction — (FSI) occurs when a fluid interacts with a solid structure, exerting pressure on it which may cause deformation in the structure and thus alter the flow of the fluid itself. Such interactions may be stable or oscillatory, and are a crucial… …
