What's the difference between inelastic and irresilient?

Inelastic

Definition:

(a.) Not elastic.

Example Sentences:

(1) The electron spectroscopic diffraction (ESD) mode of operation of an energy-filtering electron microscope offers the possibility of being able to avoid the background from inelastic scattering in selected-area electron diffraction patterns.
(2) Two hundred consecutive patients with arthrographically verified rupture of one or both of the lateral ankle ligaments were allocated to treatment with either an operation and a walking cast, walking cast alone, or strapping with an inelastic tape - all for 5 weeks.
(3) From these studies, it was suggested that the inelastic behavior of bioactive glass-ceramics was produced by the plastic deformation of glassy phase on the grain boundary.
(4) The maintenance of constant plasmalemma area, even after excessive stretch, suggests that the plasmalemma is relatively inelastic in this situation.
(5) Analysis by an N-channel model of hot electron transport provides values of 0.017 and 0.068 per layer for the elastic and total inelastic collision probabilities, respectively.
(6) The technique was applied to 14 normal volunteers (8 females, 6 males) aged 24-94 y who underwent neutron inelastic scattering and neutron activation measurements for body carbon, nitrogen, and calcium.
(7) If this includes both the revenue obtained and the total number of consultations, the optimum price is set where consumers' demand becomes inelastic--how inelastic depends on the relative values of revenue and consultations.
(8) When the dynamic properties of many different proteins are plotted as a function of temperature, biphasic behaviour is observed, with a broad transition centred around 220 K. Atomic mean-square displacements from X-ray crystallography and Mössbauer scattering show this behaviour, as do electron transfer rates and dynamic information from inelastic neutron scattering.
(9) Incisions for elective orthopedic procedures frequently result in scars that are unesthetic (wide and hypertrophied) and impeded function (are inelastic).
(10) Image blurring due to delocalization of inelastic events was studied for scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) of unstained thin sections.
(11) Fluctuation of maximum pressure Pmax will induce the increase of inelastic deformation and the decrease of rigidity of the blood vessel.
(12) By using the stable crack growth technique, an inelastic behavior was observed on the diagram of load versus load-point displacement.
(13) Simple models are used to calculate the inelastic light scattering spectrum of motile bacteria when wiggling motions are included in addition to translational displacement.
(14) This inelastic segment causes bending of the erect penis and sexual incapacity in advanced cases.
(15) The combination of inelastic dacron fibres and elastic silicone rubber in one functional unit as in the Niebauer implant was considered the main cause of the damage.
(16) Finally, elastic tissue will rotate with little puckering but inelastic tissue will form large dog-ears when rotated.
(17) The fact that the inelastic neutron scattering measurements can distinguish between the two theoretical models makes clear their utility for the analysis of protein dynamics.
(18) One may anticipate a dropping of the tip, from residual redundant or inelastic skin, in some older patients with long noses.
(19) Comparison with normal mode models of lysozyme dynamics shows that the inelastic difference occurs in the frequency region predicted for the lowest frequency, largest amplitude, global modes of the molecular [M. Levitt, C. Sander and P.S.
(20) The ultrastrong polyethylene fiber has great tensile strength, high flexibility, and is very inelastic.
