Abstract
Hydraulics (from the Greek word $\upsilono \zeta$) is the study
of fluid movements and fluid power. I will discuss the dynamics of
water movements in soft fluid infiltrated solids such as gels,
cells and tissues, with implications for the fluid-limited
settling, bending and breaking of gels, the dynamics of nuclear and
cell swelling and motility, and the water powered slow and rapid
movements of tissues.
