He believed that he survived the test flight partly because he was a shorter man, de Havilland having suffered a broken neck possibly due to the violent oscillation.

Torn from its base, the huge glass box that was the Great Retort wallowed in the flood, the bodies inside of it tumbling and piling with each violent oscillation.

Under extreme conditions, the initial shock can cause violent oscillations that quickly build and result in catastrophic damage of the entire airframe.

The raft followed the motions of the increasing swell, and was tossed up and down, to and fro, and from side to side with the most violent oscillations.

Ever since rising global temperatures pumped more energy in, violent oscillations had grown.

It can take the form of a single slip-then-flip or a series of violent oscillations.

Sometimes the new weather patterns can even lock into a repeating cycle of violent oscillation that is as stable as what we consider normal.

The violent oscillations of cosmic strings generically lead to the formation of cusps and kinks.

With each violent oscillation, with each purge, the party has lost some of the good will with which it began its rule.

Overspeed warning horns for the atmospheric radiators sounded five times in close succession due to violent oscillations in the roiling air.
