The external component operatively communicates with the implant component to transmit a compressive load on the urethra.

The spring means provides a compressive load between the fuel injector (122) and the fuel rail (121).

Apply the compressive load slowly and continuously until the maximum load is reached.

Each arch is formed with sufficient stiffness to accept compressive load and sufficient resiliently to distribute the load and maintain electrical contact.

Allow the compressive load to continue until the cylinder is crushed.

Web elements are sized, oriented and comprised of a material that facilitates buckling when subjected to a compressive load.

In some embodiments, the space volume receives a portion of the seal pad volume in response to a compressive load.

The apparatus includes a piezo flexure that is loaded with a compressive pre-load force to place the piezo flexure under compression.

In some embodiments, the raised portions are deformable into the adjacent spaces in response to a compressive load on the outer sealing surface.

Thus, the rigidity of the outer side portions of the tubular member (22) in the vehicle width direction with respect to compressive load is increased.

A separate compressive load may be applied to the LGA package substrate and to the semiconductor die mounted on the LGA package substrate.

Each improved product tray supports a comparable compressive load while being composed of less material or less expensive material as compared with prior art designs.

Upon axial compressive loading, washers (26) flanking the membranes will become embedded in the hubs and may flow to take up the clearance spaces.

For example, material properties of such composite materials are measured under a compressive loading by an ultrasonic transducer (36) at the optimal consolidation deformation.

After engagement to form a joint, the cooperating linear interlocking structures provide and maintain a void volume (30) between the layers, and resist compressive loading of the fabric in a more or less predictable manner.
