Sentence examples for compression tension from inspiring English sources

Under uniaxial compression (tension), auxetic materials would shrink (expand) laterally.

Services Available: 4-point bending (bone); compression; tension (tendon/ligament); device testing; fatigue/cyclic loading; in vivo loading (small animals).

Helical piles are widely used in engineering applications providing stability against compression, tension, and horizontal loads.

During severe impact conditions, brain tissue experiences compression, tension and shear.

Directed applied stress, such as compression, tension, and shear, is studied, as are the effects of increased temperature introduced with depth in the Earth's crust.

The nanoring stability deteriorates if the defect compression (tension) strain superimposes the nanoring bending compression (tension) strain, while the stability may be enhanced if the defect compression (tension) strain alleviates the nanoring bending tension (compression) strain.

The nonlinear viscoelastic/viscoplastic response of an amorphous glassy polymer, in terms of compression-tension cyclic loading and compressive creep is simulated by a model analytically presented in previous works.

Our experiments confirm that human brain tissue is nonlinear and viscoelastic, with a pronounced compression-tension asymmetry.
