ilmanpuskuri
Ilmanpuskuri, often translated as air buffer or air cushion, refers to a layer of air used to absorb shock or reduce friction. In various applications, it serves to mitigate the impact of sudden movements or to facilitate smoother motion. This can be achieved through different mechanisms, but the fundamental principle involves utilizing the compressibility and low viscosity of air.
One common example is found in packaging materials. Air-filled packaging, such as bubble wrap or inflatable
In industrial settings, air bearings utilize a thin film of pressurized air to levitate a moving part,
The concept can also be applied in transportation, for instance, in hovercraft, which use a cushion of
