Aircraft hydraulic systems were developed in the early 20th century as a practical means of transmitting robust mechanical power generated by a pump, usually driven by an engine, to a motor or ...

A hydraulic ram is a clever device invented over 200 years ago that can pump water uphill with no other external source of power except for the water flowing into it and there is a way to take ...

Introduction to Hydraulic Components provides users with an overview of how the active and passive components of a hydraulic system work together to transmit power. The active components of a ...

Discover the science behind hydraulic fracturing, commonly known as “fracking.” Even though it has already been used for over 60 years, hydraulic fracturing is still considered a relatively new ...

In some ways, hydraulics is an overlooked technology. The research money going into fluid power is minuscule than electronics. Even though it is somewhat because hydraulics is a mature sector, we do ...
