hydraulic action

Sometimes you have to see this hydraulic action to appreciate its raw power.

In coastal areas wave hydraulic action is often the most important form of erosion.

It may be caused by hydraulic action, abrasion, and corrosion.

Hydraulic action timers are usually designed for a specific time, which is set in the factory during their manufacture.

Hydraulic action describes the erosion caused by the dragging of water over the stream bed and bank.

There are two main sources of stream erosion: hydraulic action and abrasion.

Hydraulic Action: Erosion by the force of moving water.

Potholes are commonly found below waterfalls or rapids where hydraulic action is a significant process.

The hydraulic action of water flowing over top of these structures helps to create and maintain large pools.

Hydraulic action is the main cause of erosion (sheer force of the wave) that damaged the rock.

The severity of hydraulic action increases with stream velocity and current stream load.

Hydraulic action also occurs as a stream tumbles over a waterfall to crash onto the rocks below.

Hydraulic action is erosion that occurs when the motion of water against a rock surface produces mechanical weathering.

Hydraulic action takes place when air in a joint is suddenly compressed by a wave closing the entrance of the joint.

It shakes and weakens the rocks leaving them open to attack from hydraulic action and abrasion.

Hydraulic action can also cause the breakdown of river banks since there are water bubbles which enter the banks and collapse them when they expand.

It was his feeling that the percussive or hydraulic action tools were probably the most promising for obtaining core during deepwater operations.

A primary example of hydraulic action is a wave striking a cliff face which compresses the air in cracks of the rocks.

Any debris dislodged from them by hydraulic action sinks to the depths and cannot be used by the waves to attack the cliffs.

Hydraulic action occurs when waves striking a cliff face compress air in cracks on the cliff face.

An oxbow lake forms when a river creates a meander, due to the river's eroding the bank through hydraulic action, abrasion and erosion.

Brandyn S. Harris, son of the choreographer, shares his father's ability to turn the hydraulic action of popping into something through which dark emotions course.

They are formed when part of a headland is eroded by hydraulic action, which is the force of the sea or water crashing against the rock.

One powerful example of hydraulic action is bank caving, which normally occurs when a stream loosens sediment and undercuts a bank.

Arches - Arches are formed as the cave wears backwards along a fault by hydraulic action and abrasion right through the headland.
