DEFINITION

Classification: 702/43

Torsional, shear, tensile, or compression:

(under subclass 42) Subject matter where the strength or energy that causes or tends to cause the deformation of the body includes (1) two opposite angular or linear forces opposing each other at different points in the body for twisting parts of the body or for sliding two contiguous parts of the body relative to each other in the direction

parallel to their plane of contact or (2) pressing or pulling forces for reducing or stretching object in size or volume.
