The compressed spring analogy highlights the potential for a sudden price surge following a period of compression or stagnation. Dragosch noted that the last instance of such an asymmetric risk-reward ...

The acid solution will warm up even if the spring isn’t compressed, due to the heat of reaction as the acid dissolves the metal. If the spring is compressed, it will warm up slightly more. As each ...

The dimensions, along with the load and deflection requirements, determine the stresses in the spring. When a compression spring is loaded, the coiled wire is stressed in torsion. The stress is ...
