I never heard of that theory, but there is Archimede's Principle which states that the weight of something under water is equal to the weight outside water minus the weight of the volume of water displaced by the object.

It's called the law of bouyancy. The term Archimedes Principle is an informal label.

Archemedis,and some call it the theory of displacement
