Hydraulics

The word Hydraulics originated from a Greek word hydraulikos which breaks down as hydro – water and aulos – pipe. As we all know Hydraulics is a technology of using liquids or fluids with the application of engineering, chemistry or other sciences that involve the mechanical properties. Just like pneumatics uses gas or pressurized air in its technology, hydraulics uses fluids or water in its operation. The mechanics of fluid lay the basic theoretical foundation of hydraulics which further uses the properties of fluids on applied engineering.
