The World s Biggest Shock Absorber

It's kind of a stress absorber, or a shock absorber for the acidity of a solution.

like a shock absorber on your bike or car.

I found a tractor fan, shock absorber, PVC pipes.

Hey, Doc, isn't there just a shock absorber you can put in my knee?

You're the shock absorber for collisions with exwives and models and new wives and assorted tramps.

Air typically passes along the front or back of the absorber plate while scrubbing heat directly from it.

But the way you could think about it is, this is kind of a shock absorber for pH.

However, these three sectors functioned as the economy's shock absorber and managed to provide employment at the time of crisis.

In water heat panels, fluid is usually circulated through tubing to transfer heat from the absorber to an insulated water tank.

It has a shock absorber in it so it, like, Shhhh, makes this neat sound when you jump around on it.

It has a shock absorber in it so it, like, Shhhh, makes this neat sound when you jump around on it. All right.

Most air heat fabricators and some water heat manufacturers have a completely flooded absorber consisting of two sheets of metal which the fluid passes between.

With limited labor mobility, and the euro removing the other shock absorber (exchange rate adjustments), great pressure will fall on those countries with the worst downturns.

Ireland s accumulation of wealth during its Celtic Tiger period, when the country surged toward the top of Europe s economic league table, has also been an effective shock absorber.

Peter Kenen argued in the late 1960 s that without exchange rate movements as a shock absorber, a currency union requires fiscal transfers as a way to share risk.

If evacuated tubes are compared with flat plate collectors on the basis of area of roof occupied, a different conclusion might be reached than if the areas of absorber were compared.

On balance, the euro has been a success, but it does balance gains from price transparency and decreased transaction costs against the loss of independent monetary policies and a currency adjustment shock absorber.

In addition, the ISO 9806 standard is ambiguous in describing the way in which the efficiency of solar thermal collectors should be measured, since these could be measured either in terms of gross area or in terms of absorber area.

With no separate currencies to adjust, the only shock absorber left is labor migration to areas with lower unemployment for example, from southern to northern Europe. Such migration is easier in the US than within the euro zone or even within European countries.

The case of Spain illustrates another feature of European economies that makes it difficult to argue for a federal unemployment scheme. Spanish unemployment is now close to 30 , which a priori should be a good justification for some form of shock absorber.

The other natural shock absorber is a depreciating currency, which increases competitiveness in the area hit hardest. That cannot happen with a common currency, and economic adjustment is doubly difficult when labor is not mobile enough to help mitigate regional contractions in income and unemployment.

First thing for my wife, and the most common thing I hear from my patients, particularly in the 40 to 80 year old age group, 70 year old age group, is they come in and say, Hey, Doc, isn't there just a shock absorber you can put in my knee?
