| Compressive forces are generally significantly greater than the tensile forces generated in a tensile test. |
| A similar deformation of the anisotropic crystallites has also been observed for N. clavipes upon tensile deformation. |
| This tensile structure is a balance of the forces of tension and compression through five major components. |
| For brittle materials, the tensile strength is a valid criterion for design. |
| The vaulted roof is constructed with exposed light tensile trusses that contrast with the rammed earth internal walls. |
| For a hydro-fracture to form and propagate, fluid pressure must exceed horizontal stress plus the tensile strength of the overburden. |
