At mechanical equilibrium, the pressures on both sides of a mechanically open boundary are equal, but only a mechanically isolating boundary can support pressure differences.

The mechanical equilibrium article appears only to cover static equilibrium . "'Sp in ni ng Spark "'12 : 01, 12 October 2008 ( UTC)

At terminal velocity, the electric field, and the voltage was adjusted until the drops were suspended in mechanical equilibrium, indicating that the electrical force and the gravitational force were balanced.
24.
Considering equilibrium states, M . Bailyn writes : " Each intensive variable has its own type of equilibrium . " He then defines thermal equilibrium, mechanical equilibrium, and material equilibrium.
25.
Bernard created his concept to replace the ancient idea of life forces with that of a mechanistic process in which the body's physiology was regulated through multiple mechanical equilibrium adjustment feedbacks.
26.
An adiabatic wall between the two systems is'permeable'only to energy transferred as work; at mechanical equilibrium the rates of transfer of energy as work between them are equal and opposite.
27.
The downwards force of gravity equals the upwards force because the water isn't moving; it is in mechanical equilibrium .-- talk ) 04 : 50, 1 December 2008 ( UTC)

For an isolated body, it is quite possible for mechanical equilibrium to be reached before thermal equilibrium is reached, but eventually, all aspects of equilibrium, including thermal equilibrium, are necessary for thermodynamic equilibrium.
29.
However, as the inside of the rotameter is cone shaped ( widens ), the area around the float through which the medium flows increases, the flow speed and drag force decrease until there is mechanical equilibrium with the float's weight.

Crystals tend to exhibit the hcp structure alone ( random stacking of hexagonally close-packed crystal planes ), in contrast with a mixture of ( rhcp ) and face-centred cubic packing when allowed sufficient time to reach mechanical equilibrium under gravitational forces on Earth.
