torsional strength

The fiberglass adds stiffness and torsional strength to the board.

The rifle's receiver is machined to provide additional accuracy and torsional strength.

The more damping ability the coupling has, the less torsional strength it possesses.

Traditionally construction techniques produced skis with limited torsional strength.

It must not deflect, and it has to have enough torsional strength to resist twisting.

The wider land increases the torsional strength of the drill which increases the hole tolerance for high precision work.

But, even with their great compressional and tensile strengths, neither bone nor concrete has a very high level of torsional strength (the strength to endure twisting).

Because concrete is quite strong in resisting compressive loads, but has relatively poor tensile or torsional strength, these early structures consisted of arches, vaults and domes.

Big, high-strength steel side frames and complex bracing around the hatchback retain torsional strength, with cast-aluminium front suspension turrets just like Audi's top-model A8 limo.

The main structure of the car was both elegant and simple, yet it would ensure significant torsional strength and also allow separate storage of the two liquids used as the propellant.

Another bracing strut ran from the forward foot of the interplane strut to the top of the root to upper wing inner strut, to further improve torsional strength.

In 2010 they launched their Patent pending STP Technology, or Snake Transition Project, which allowed them to reduce the weight in their skis by up to 30% whilst increasing torsional strength.

To achieve this goal the students at Akaflieg Stuttgart thoroughly tested fibreglass re-inforced composites, as well as birch ply and balsa/fibreglass sandwiches, for E- and G-modulus, compressive and torsional strength as well as bonding and rivetting methods.
