pressure distribution

Pressure distribution refers to how force exerted by a fluid or object is spread across a surface. It determines how pressure varies from one point to another, often depending on factors like depth, shape, or flow. For example, water exerts more pressure at the bottom of a tank than at the top, because of the weight of the water above. In engineering, understanding pressure distribution helps design stable structures and efficient systems by ensuring that forces are managed properly across surfaces. It is fundamental for analyzing how forces are transferred and how materials respond under different conditions.
