Common Expressions: HYDROSTAT

Expressions Definition
Muscular hydrostat A muscular hydrostat is a biological structure, found in animals. It is used to manipulate items (including food), or to move its host about, and is made mainly of muscles, with no skeletal support. It performs its hydraulic movement without fluid in a separate compartment, as in a hydrostatic skeleton. (references)
Pendulum and Hydrostat Control Pendulum and Hydrostat control is a simple system for automatically controlling the depth in water of a machine. The Hydrostat senses the depth, sometimes this initially was with a simple Bellows. However, with only a Hydrostat the system would tend to oscillate around the desired depth. The Pendulum senses the angle at which the machine sits at relative to the vertical. The angle information is combined with the depth information in order to provide control signals to the machines steering mechanism. The angle information is key in that it provides a damping term to the oscillation. (references)
