• In telecommunications, a slip is a positional displacement in a sequence of transmitted symbols that causes the loss or insertion of one or more symbols. Slips are usually caused by inadequate synchronization of the two clocks controlling the transmission or by poor reception of the signal. (Source: Federal Standard 1037C.)
• In boating, a slip is a ramp used to move boats and flying boats to and from the water.
• In water transport, a ferry slip or barge slip is a shore terminal designed to securely and easily receive the ferry. If the ferry carries vehicles the slip will include a ramp called an apron to connect the shore approach with the vehicle deck.
• In railways, a single or double slip is a type of Rail_switch
• In clothing, a slip is a woman's underdress or underskirt.
• In the sport of cricket, slip is a fielding position.
• In ceramics, slip is a diluted clay solution used for decorating or coating pottery or for casting in a plaster or rubber mold. Slip cast ceramics are easily recognized by their even thickness (seen when broken) and smooth interior.
• In aeronautics, slip is when the airflow across the aircraft is not aligned with the principal axis. This is due to uncoordinated operation of the rudder and aileron flight controls and may be an intentional or unintentional maneuver.
• In structural engineering, slip prevents excessive loads on joints and allows response to stress without damage. Used particularly in some seismic retrofit modifications to large structures. See slip critical joint and slip joint.
• In materials science slip is the process by which plastic deformation is produced by a dislocation motion.
• In geology, a strike-slip fault is a type of geological fault that does not cause elevation or depression of one side of the fault.
• In computing, SLIP is the Serial Line Internet Protocol.
• In computing, SLIP is the Symmetric LIst Processing language, designed in the late 1960s as an extension to the Fortran, MAD, and ALGOL languages
• In vehicle dynamics, slip is the relative motion between a tyre and the road surface it is moving on. This slip can be generated either by the tyre's rotational speed being greater or less than the free-rolling speed (usually described as percent slip), or by the tyre's plane of rotation being at an angle to its direction of motion (referred to as slip angle).
• In video editing, slipping is a type of edit, which adjusts the in and out points of the media contained in a clip.
