In Triplagia and Triplecta, where the triangular skeleton lies in a horizontal plane, the vertical main axis of the central capsule is perpendicular to the central point of that supporting triangle.
For the problems most practically useful it will be sufficient to consider the stream lines as parallel to a vertical or horizontal plane.
If the motion is in a vertical plane, the action of gravity must be taken into the reckoning; if the motion is in a horizontal plane, the terms expressing variation of elevation of the filament will disappear.

The emery-wheel shaft is pivoted upon the fork carrying it, so that the emery wheel can be turned to stand in a horizontal plane if desired.
The unreliability of deflection formulas for beams is due mainly to the fact that the neutral axis of the beam does not lie in a horizontal plane throughout, and that the shearing stresses are neglected therein.
The concrete at the end of a simple beam is better able to take horizontal shear than vertical, because the compression on a horizontal plane is greater than that on a vertical plane.
In a fluid at rest under gravity the pressure is the same at any two points in the same horizontal plane; in other words, a surface of equal pressure is a horizontal plane.

As another example, suppose we have a circular cylinder whose mass-centre is at an excentric point, rolling on a horizontal plane.
Horizontal plane (Descriptive Geometry), a plane parallel to the horizon, upon which it is assumed that objects are projected.

It should be remembered that the exopodites are always found dorsal to or above the endopodites, and in a horizontal plane.
