- A propagating dyke (whether of igneous or elastic origin) is an example of an opening mode fracture that propagates as a tensile crack in a plane normal to the least compressive stress direction.
- The eye isn't as sharp, the wrists are less tensile, the legs give in to his perennial problem - cramp - that much more easily.
- Large valgus and extension moments lead to tensile stress on medial structures, compressive force laterally, and shear force posteriorly.

- This tensile structure is a balance of the forces of tension and compression through five major components.
- The successful treatment of posterior rotator cuff musculature tendinitis, or tensile rotator cuff musculature failure, depends on its differential diagnosis from internal impingement.
- Perhaps shear in soil is best understood in contrast with compressive forces that act head-to-head and tensile forces that act in opposite directions (pull).
- Situated at the location where the Vikings landed one thousand years ago, its design has a strong maritime theme, including a sail-like tensile canopy.
- As the water depth increased, the tensile load in the pipe also increased due to the greater weight of suspended pipe.
- Most simply, muscle fibers activated by the nervous system produce tensile forces that are transmitted to the skeleton.
- It's based around the Zoom Air insole, which uses tensile strings encased in a heavy-gas filled capsule to deliver shock protection in an ultra-thin package.
- They suggested that some tensile force must be present in the sequences containing polygonal fault networks, superimposed on the stresses induced by burial and gravitational loading, to induce shear failure.
- Several lines of evidence suggest the association between ActA and filaments ends is persistent and capable of supporting strong tensile or torsional forces over many cycles of monomer addition.
- It decreases the tensile forces placed upon the Achilles tendon via dissemination of forces resulting from a muscular contraction.
- Where else could a blonde giant with muscles of tensile steel and overleaping ambition go, carve out an empire and boastfully display his Aryan might as a symbol to the world of what strength, discipline and power can achieve?
- Eva Jiricna's Faith Zone is a cluster of arched tensile canopies stretched out over sinuous walls.
- The pier concrete resists the compressive forces of the structure, and the steel reinforcing resists tensile forces, such as from soil heave.
- The second important component of the tensile structure is the compressive steel frame which serves to push and pull the fabric into the desired shape.
- The radial stress is compressive, i.e., it tends to compress the annulus in the radial direction, and the tangential stress is tensile, i.e., it tends to stretch the annulus in the tangential direction.
- It turns out that:… eccentric exercise in particular causes structural damage as, for a given tensile load, there are fewer motor units recruited within the muscle, increasing the tensile load per motor unit.
- Secondary elements, of stainless steel, include rails fixed to tensile rods for clothes, and frames suspended from rollers along the top of bays.
- Seuss railed against the evil isms of his day - fascism, anti-Semitism, anti-black racism - with the full force of his tensile imagination.

- Therefore, concrete beams are reinforced with steel rods on the tensile side (in cross section) when experiencing bending.
- Steel plates connect the flanges of the columns, producing an in-situ tensile membrane capable of resisting loads up to 50 psi.
- ‘Plain’ concrete is placed when the structure must resist mostly compression forces and when tensile stresses are low.
