  • Chain loading
    Chain loading
    Chain loading is a method used by computer programs to replace the currently executing program with a new program, using a common data area to pass information from the current program to the new program. It occurs in several areas of computing.Chain loading is similar to the use of overlays...

  • Disk loading
    Disk loading
    In fluid dynamics, disk loading or disc loading is the average pressure change across an actuator disk, such as an airscrew. Airscrews with a relatively low disk loading are typically called rotors, including helicopter main rotors and tail rotors; propellers typically have a higher disk...

    , the pressure maintained over the swept area of a helicopter's rotor
  • Dynamic loading
    Dynamic loading
    Dynamic loading is a mechanism by which a computer program can, at run time, load a library into memory, retrieve the addresses of functions and variables contained in the library, execute those functions or access those variables, and unload the library from memory...

    , a mechanism by which a computer program can load a library into memory

  • Front loading, a method used by the Military-industrial complex to increase defense funding
  • Gut loading
    Gut loading
    Gut loading is the process by which an animal's prey is raised and fed nutritious foods with the intention of passing those nutrients to the animal for which the prey is intended. This term is used most often in reference to the preparation of insects, such as crickets and mealworms, or mice which...

    , the process by which an animal's prey is raised and fed nutritious foods with the intention of passing those nutrients to the animal for which the prey is intended
  • Lazy loading
    Lazy loading
    Lazy loading is a design pattern commonly used in computer programming to defer initialization of an object until the point at which it is needed. It can contribute to efficiency in the program's operation if properly and appropriately used...

    Wave loading is most commonly the application of a pulsed or wavelike load to a material or object. This is most commonly used in the analysis of piping, ships, or building structures which experience wind, water, or seismic disturbances....

    , the application of a pulsed or wavelike load to a material or object
  • Wing loading
    Wing loading
    In aerodynamics, wing loading is the loaded weight of the aircraft divided by the area of the wing. The faster an aircraft flies, the more lift is produced by each unit area of wing, so a smaller wing can carry the same weight in level flight, operating at a higher wing loading. Correspondingly,...

    , the loaded weight of an aircraft divided by the area of its wing
