- Aeropiezism — A field of applied physics or a collection of mechanical phenomena that studies the behavior, compressibility, and pressure variations of air or other gases subjected to external forces. This structural principle underpins the design of high-precision pneumatic systems, advanced barometers, and devices for measuring atmospheric density in a dynamic regime.
- Aerostatics — A branch of fluid mechanics and physics that studies the equilibrium conditions of air and other gases, as well as of solid bodies immersed within them. In an applied sense, it represents the science, technology, and history of designing, constructing, and navigating lighter-than-air aircraft, grounded in hydrostatic laws transposed to the atmospheric environment.
