The Archimedean screw can be constructed using two simple ideas. The first is a screw, which in an inclined plane wrapped around a central core or axis. The second idea is to closely confine the screw by placing it inside a cylinder the length of the screw. One variation of the Screw is to coil a flexible tube around a core shaft. As the shaft is turned, the tube will work in the same way and lift the water up, with the problems caused by an actual Screw's operation. A picture is probably worth a thousand words at this point, so drop down below and find a link to an explanation of the device. It comes complete with an aplet showing the the machine in operation. Check out how it is set up and how it works.
The trick to designing a screw pump is to set the slope of the shaft so that the water caught in the flanges in constantly flowing uphill. ADDED: Assuming this means the Archimedean Screw, a screw thread is essentially an inclined-plane wound into a helix, so it acts rather like a long wedge in raising the material it is acting on. For raising a fluid the screw also needs to be a suitably close fit in its cylinder to minimise leakage round the thread crest.
It is one simple piece it does not need multiple pieces to make it.
Most screws are made of some metal or another.
stating the Archimedean Principle.
An Archimedean screw is another name for an Archimedes' screw, a screw which, when twisted inside a cylinder, raises water from a lower level to a higher level, allowing irrigation of fields.
Its Purpose was to irrigate and lift water From mines and Ship Bilges
The Water Screw helped to bring water from a lower level to a higher one. :)[ADDED] It's normally called the "Archimedean Screw".
The twist drill uses flutes that act as an Archimedean screw to lift swarf from the hole.

In geometry an Archimedean solid or semi-regular solid is a semi-regular convex polyhedron made of two or more types of regular polygons meeting in identical vertices.

An Archimedean ordered field is an ordered field which satisfies the axiom of Archimedes.

what are the differences between platonic and archimedean solids? physically , naturely and features
Cuboctahedron
An Archimedean property is the property of the set of real numbers, that for any real number there is always a natural number greater than it.
