Stiffness

Stiffness variance

Just a little stiffness. That's all.

That's not guessing. The child has a fever, headache, stiffness.

Cornering him in an argument is easy like taking candy from a baby.

Bearing in mind, the suspension had to be a compromise setting to allow for effective cornering on the road section.

like Richard, or a cockroach, or a crab, or a kangaroo, the relative leg stiffness of that spring is the same for everything we've seen so far.

It's an observation with obvious medical applications in humans as well, but it's also relevant in a broad sense, I think, to the design of prosthetics, soft robots, basically anything where changes of shape and stiffness are important.

A maximum of about 180 miles an hour can be expected from these 3litre cars on this high banking, where they get a pounding from the rough surface and the strain imposed by centrifugal force before they swoop down onto the road circuit again where cornering power and handling are at the premium.

So if you're ever thinking about the issue of compliance, when we're talking about stiffness, think about these curves and the fact that where the slope is tells you how compliant something is, and that arteries are going to be more compliant than a stiff pipe, certainly, but less compliant than the veins.

This painting is often compared to an early renaissance painting by Raphael's teacher Perugino The Giving of the Keys to Saint Peter and you can begin to see here in this early work by Raphael indications of what we understand now as the high renaissance style as opposed to the kind of stiffness of the 15th century of the early renaissance.
