Pence and Emery call them "verb + adverb" and "verb + preposition" 
combinations, making a clear distinction between adverbs and 
prepositions used thus:
"Sometimes an adverb such as up, down, in, out, is so closely welded 
to a preceding verb that a following substantive is really the object 
of the verb plus the adverb rather than of the verb alone." Says can 
easily be switched to passive voice. Uses examples "He put down the 
rebellion in short order," "I  have closed out my business," and 
"They have put off the play." Position of down can be shifted; 
position of out may be shifted, etc.

They then say essentially the same thing about "verb + preposition 
combinations." preposition "is almost a suffix of the verb." "...some 
intransitive verbs become transitive when such a preposition is 
closely welded to them...." Gives these examples;
They laughed at me
I cannot put up with your conduct any longer
