The force exerted effects a characteristic of an optical signal.

The force that is exerted can be mechanical, magnetic, piezoelectric or any other force.

A safety belt assembly which measures the amount of force exerted on the assembly and, also, the point in time when the force was exerted on the assembly.

The force acting on the occupants is reduced as a result.

The second spring (10) exerts a greater force than the first spring (7).

In the event rock forces exceed the threshold force, the plastically deformable portions elongate with the dilating rock to accommodate and absorb the rock forces.

The force exerted by the shaft (7) on the spinal rod is limited to a pre-selected force.

The force applied to the control device shall not exceed 60 daN.

A force-sensor (17) is placed between the clamp (4) and the stage (1) to measure the force applied.

vehicle deceleration to brake pedal force.

vehicle deceleration to brake pedal force.

Force limiting means limit the force applied below a predetermined level.

The design employs feedback of the force encountered and selectively alters force applied based on force encountered.

The bias of the springs (37) is independently adjustable.

According to the invention, a spring (F), which is opposed to the force, exerts a counter force.
