mechanical response

He had come straight to the mess hall more as a mechanical response than anything else.

A mechanical response with which he had grown up, natural as breathing.

"It must have sounded like a doctor's mechanical response to a personal tragedy."

Acoustic and mechanical responses are due to collective motions as well.

Because some interactions between human and machine are ambiguous, the mechanical response is not always the desired result for the user.

This implies that the mechanical response has a time-dependence.

What we found is that wherever centres work mechanically with the units, there tends to be a more mechanical response from the students.

The beetles' organs seem to work on a mechanical response similar to that used in some extremely sensitive measuring techniques.

Lehmann's voice lacked all sympathy; it was the voice of mechanical response.

The three-element Hill muscle model is a representation of the muscle mechanical response.

And as soon as the beetles became "more alive," they learned to overrule their mechanical responses.

Joe did not realize that Barth was half dazed, resorting to method purely through mechanical response.

The muscles in Spock's jaw tensed as he watched the slow-motion mechanical response to his question.

This, of course, happens so quickly that it appears that the letters are displayed as a direct mechanical response to the keypress.

After some cycles of loading and unloading the material, the mechanical response becomes independent of strain rate.

The priest mumbled a toothless, mechanical response.

Part I focuses on the mechanical response of zirconium hydride within a bulk Zircaloy-2 matrix.

Variations in stress fields within the Earth's crust can result in a variety of mechanical responses:

The mechanical response includes transitions between solid-like and fluid-like behavior as well as fluctuations.

In the 1940s Andrews and Tobolsky showed that there was a simple relationship between temperature and time for the mechanical response of a polymer.

Selected systems in each class are being investigated with emphasis on the relationship between their microstructure over a range of length scales and their mechanical response.

"No, not yet," Adams said in slow, mechanical response, as if he had already gone and little, very little of him, remained here now, by which to answer.

They exhibit unusual mechanical responses to applied stress or strain due to the geometrical constraints that the phase coexistence imposes.

This process is fundamental to muscle physiology, whereby the electrical stimulus is usually an action potential and the mechanical response is contraction.

Rock mechanics forms part of the broader subject of geomechanics, which is concerned with the mechanical responses of all geological materials, including soils.
