Aerometry :: Aerometry (n.) The science of measuring the air, including the doctrine of its pressure, elasticity, rarefaction, and condensation; pneumatics..

Spring :: Spring (v. i.) A flying back; the resilience of a body recovering its former state by elasticity; as, the spring of a bow..

Nonelastic :: Nonelastic (a.) Not having elasticity.

Distend :: Distend (v. t.) To stretch out or extend in all directions; to dilate; to enlarge, as by elasticity of parts; to inflate so as to produce tension; to cause to swell; as, to distend a bladder, the stomach, etc..

Elasticness :: Elasticness (n.) The quality of being elastic; elasticity.

Elatery :: Elatery (n.) Acting force; elasticity.

Elasticity :: Elasticity (n.) Power of resistance to, or recovery from, depression or overwork..

Pneumatics :: Pneumatics (n.) That branch of science which treats of the mechanical properties of air and other elastic fluids, as of their weight, pressure, elasticity, etc. See Mechanics..

Isotropy :: Isotropy (n.) Uniformity of physical properties in all directions in a body; absence of all kinds of polarity; specifically, equal elasticity in all directions..

Tubby :: Tubby (a.) Resembling a tub; specifically sounding dull and without resonance, like a tub; wanting elasticity or freedom of sound; as, a tubby violin..

Unelasticity :: Unelasticity (n.) Inelasticity.

Ether :: Ether (n.) A medium of great elasticity and extreme tenuity, supposed to pervade all space, the interior of solid bodies not excepted, and to be the medium of transmission of light and heat; hence often called luminiferous ether..

Elasticity :: Elasticity (n.) The quality of being elastic; the inherent property in bodies by which they recover their former figure or dimensions, after the removal of external pressure or altering force; springiness; tendency to rebound; as, the elasticity of caoutchouc; the elasticity of the air..

Inelasticity :: Inelasticity (n.) Want of elasticity.
