Sentence examples for plastic impact from inspiring English sources

Today, bumpers are four-inch-thick sandwiches of a plastic impact pad (or metal contact bar) and plastic foam, covered with "bumper covers," the plastic cladding visible on the car.

In a perfectly elastic impact (attained only at the atomic level), none of the kinetic energy of the coacting bodies is lost; in a perfectly plastic impact, the loss of kinetic energy is at a maximum.

Such a loading consists of a falling body striking centrally the joint mass of the arch in such a way that a completely plastic impact can be postulated.

Cold gas dynamic spray (CGDS) is a rapidly developing coating technology, in which spray particles are deposited through plastic impact on a substrate at velocities of up to 700 m/s and virtually at room temperature.

In order to calibrate the proposed method, the part of the kinetic energy of the impacting floor that is transferred to the impacted floor is first theoretically determined for the two extreme impact possibilities, namely fully rigid and fully plastic impact.

Schematized as a system of rigid blocks, undergoing frictional sliding and plastic impacts, the arches have exhibited a complex dynamics, because of the geometrical non-linearity and the non-smooth nature of the contact laws.

18-year old Rudy Sanchez co-founded and now leads the Rise Above Plastic program at his Los Angeles high school and his worked with Surfrider, Algalita Foundation and others to spread the word on plastic impacts on the ocean and practical solutions we can all be a part of to thousands of other young people around LA and the nation.

The net result could be a "whole new paradigm for how plastics impact the world", says Mark Herrema, Newlight's co-founder and chief executive.

The elasto-plastic impact response of FG circular plates is similar to those of homogeneous plates.

The mechanism of this non-plastic impact energy dissipation lies in the transformation of impact energy to the kinetic and potential energy of SWNT molecules.

The effects of compositional gradient exponent and impactor velocity on the elasto-plastic impact response of the FG circular plates are investigated, and results are presented graphical form.
