Physical Compression




Compression has many implications in Material Science , Physics and Structural Engineering , for compression yields noticeable amounts of Stress and Tension .

By inducing compression, mechanical properties such as Compressive Strength or Modulus Of Elasticity , can be measured. Scientists may utilize press machines to induce compression.

In mechanical engineering the term is applied to the arrangement by which the exhaust valve of a , for instance, the second stroke of the piston effects the compression of the charge which has been drawn into the cylinder by the first forward stroke.
