Hello...Probably it sounds stupid...but what is the difference between hydrostatic pressure and uniform pressure.I know that hydrostatic pressure...its a fluid pressure....but i want to do a bulge test...and i dont know what to use...hydrostatic pressure or uniform pressure

My disclaimer is that I have never used it but here is my understanding. A uniform pressure is just that. Hydrostatic pressure is more designed for a dam type loading where the pressure varies from the bottom of the dam to the top. I hope this helps.
