ekstrusio

Ekstrusio is a term that appears in several languages to denote processes related to pushing material out of a boundary or removing components from a system. Because it is not standardized in English, its precise meaning depends on context and language of origin. The word shares its root with Latin extrudere, meaning to thrust out.

In manufacturing and materials science, extrusion is the process of forcing material through a die to create objects with a fixed cross-section. In some non-English texts, ekstrusio or near equivalents may be used to describe the same process; however, the exact scope—whether it refers specifically to extrusion, extrusion-like shaping, or related actuation processes—varies by language.

In geology, extrusion typically refers to the emplacement or eruption of magma at the surface as lava flows. Again, some texts in other languages may spell this as ekstrusio or use a cognate, but usage is not uniform across languages.

In biology and medicine, extrusion can denote the outward movement of tissue or a tooth. Some linguistic traditions may render this concept as ekstrusio as well.

Because of its multilingual nature and the lack of a single standard definition in English, readers should consult field-specific glossaries or dictionaries when encountering ekstrusio in a text. See also extrusion, extraction, extrusion manufacturing, volcanic extrusion, dental extrusion.
