A subfield of fluid statics, aerostatics is the study of gases that are not in motion with respect to the coordinate system in which they are considered...

Air bearings (also known as aerostatic or aerodynamic bearings) are bearings that use a thin film of pressurized gas to provide a low friction load-bearing...

protected by an outer envelope. Aerostats are so named because they use aerostatic lift which is a buoyant force that does not require movement through the...

The French Aerostatic Corps or Company of Aeronauts (French: compagnie d'aérostiers) was the world's first balloon unit, founded in 1794 to use balloons...

The Lockheed Martin P-791 is an experimental aerostatic and aerodynamic hybrid airship developed by Lockheed Martin. The first flight of the P-791 took...

a private blimp used by advertising companies P-791, an experimental aerostatic/aerodynamic hybrid airship developed by Lockheed-Martin corporation SVAM...

direct use or generation of wind energy by the use of aerodynamic or aerostatic lift devices. AWE technology is able to harvest high altitude winds, in...

A rocket engine nozzle is a propelling nozzle (usually of the de Laval type) used in a rocket engine to expand and accelerate combustion products to high...

generated externally (aerostatic) or internally (aerodynamic). Aerodynamic bearings can only be operated in high-speed applications, aerostatic bearings are required...

was the Parseval semi-rigid design. Hybrid airships fly with a positive aerostatic contribution, usually equal to the empty weight of the system, and the...
