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.

Irresilient


Definition:

  • (a.) Not resilient; not recoiling or rebounding; inelastic.
