- capable of resuming original shape after stretching or compression; springy; "an elastic band"; "a youthful and elastic walk"
- rubber band: a narrow band of elastic rubber used to hold things (such as papers) together
- a fabric made of yarns containing an elastic material
- able to adjust readily to different conditions; "an adaptable person"; "a flexible personality"; "an elastic clause in a contract"
- (elasticity) the tendency of a body to return to its original shape after it has been stretched or compressed; "the waistband had lost its snap"
- Elastic is a 2002 album by jazz saxophonist Joshua Redman. All songs were original compositions.
- In economics, elasticity is the ratio of the percent change in one variable to the percent change in another variable. It is a tool for measuring the responsiveness of a function to changes in parameters in a unit-less way. ...
- In physics, elasticity is the physical property of a material that returns to its original shape after the stress (e.g. external forces) that made it deform is removed. The relative amount of deformation is called the strain.
- (Elasticity (mathematics)) In mathematics, elasticity of a positive differentiable function f at point x is defined as
- (elasticity) The property by virtue of which a material deformed under the load can regain its original dimensions when unloaded; The sensitivity of changes in a quantity with respect to changes in another quantity; The quality of being elastic; Adaptability
- (Elasticity) Elastic databases make it trivial to add nodes to a cluster as needed with no downtime. Read and write operations scale linearly as more machines are added.
- (Elasticity) The ability of paint to expand and contract with the substrate without suffering damage or changes in its appearance. Expansion and contraction are usually caused by temperature fluctuations. ...
- (Elasticity) The condition or property of being elastic; flexibility.
- (Elasticity) The natural ability to stretch and contract muscles smoothly giving an impression of springy movement.
- (Elasticity) The unit or dollar sales shift in response to a change in price or other variables.
- (Elasticity) The ability to recover from stretching.
- (Elasticity) Term that describes the flexibility and resiliency of a mattress or material.
- (Elasticity) describes the ability of youthful skin to keep its shape
- (Elasticity) Ability to take up a certain degree of expansion and contraction.
- (Elasticity) The apparent ease with which a wire can be deflected without incurring permanent deformation.
- (Elasticity) This refers to the wools ability to return to it's previous length after being stretched.
- (Elasticity) A characteristic of woven or knitted fibers, which enables the fiber to return to the original shape after being stretched.
- (Elasticity) The flexibility property of returning to an initial for or state following deformation (stretching, pulling, compression etc)
- (ELASTICITY) Refers to the sensitivity of the quantity supplied or demanded of a commodity as the price of that commodity changes. ...
- (ELASTICITY) The extensible property of adhesive films or adhesive interfaces to contract and expand in such a manner as to overcome the differential contraction and expansion rates that the bonded adherends may exhibit.
