What's the difference between deflection and deflexion?

Deflection


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of turning aside, or state of being turned aside; a turning from a right line or proper course; a bending, esp. downward; deviation.
  • (n.) The deviation of a shot or ball from its true course.
  • (n.) A deviation of the rays of light toward the surface of an opaque body; inflection; diffraction.
  • (n.) The bending which a beam or girder undergoes from its own weight or by reason of a load.

Deflexion


Definition:

  • (n.) See Deflection.

Example Sentences:
