Her chest heaved as if she were fighting against some unknown compressive force.

The most common source of compressive force is strangulation.

This elasticity arises from the repulsive force of its particles, and is always equal to the compressive force which it balances.

Further, the compressive force of a small planet will be a less effective heat-producing agency than in the case of a larger one.

This picture of the earth shows it lying under the twofold influence of the compressive force of gravity and the sucking force of levity.

These results suggest that hydrodynamic compressive forces may play an important role in initiating tether bond formation.

However, the stiffness differential, compressive forces, and emergent thickness variations required by elastic material models are not present.

The ability of these structures to resist compressive forces was regulated by the ratio of lactide to glycolide in the polymer.
