杨的团队测试了包括人类在内的八种哺乳动物毛发的抗张强度。

Collagen accompanies the extracellular matrix in providing the structure and tensile strength of connective tissues like our ligaments and tendons.

原伴随细胞外基质，为韧带和肌腱等结缔组提供结构和抗拉强度。

Glulam, on the other hand, glues boards together in the same direction, forming massive beams with tensile strength comparable to steel.

而是将板材沿同一方向粘在一起形成巨大的横梁，其抗拉强度可与钢铁相媲美。

The kind of strength we’re talking about here is tensile strength.

我们在这里谈论的那种力量是抗拉强度。

This is its tensile strength — how much load it can take before breaking.

这是它的抗拉强度——它在断裂前可以承受多少负载。

And the strongest spider silk in the world has a tensile strength of about four billion pascals.

Now, I notice you're using titanium. Did you give any consideration to carbon nanotubes? They're lighter, cheaper, and have twice the tensile strength.

我注意到你用的是钛金属，你有没有考虑过用碳纳米管，它们更轻更便宜，拉伸强度是钛的两倍。

As a result, wood lacked steel's tensile strength or concrete's compressive strength — each necessary to support tall buildings and battle the powerful winds found at high altitudes.

所以材缺乏钢铁的抗拉强度或混凝土的抗压强度，而这些都是支撑高层建筑和对抗高海拔地区强风所必需的。

A spider's web is incredibly strong though, with a tensile strength 5 times greater than steel, and yet is incredibly lightweight- a single strand that encircled the globe would weigh only 1 pound 2 ounces.

蜘蛛网非常坚固，抗拉强度是钢的 5 倍，而且非常轻——单根蜘蛛网环绕地球仅重 1 磅 2 盎司。

He was suddenly confused, not about the ethics of the matter, for the impossibility of it was sheerly indicated from all angles but simply confused, and for a moment his usual grace, the tensile strength of his balance, was absent.

他突然感到困惑，不是因为这件事的伦理问题，因为从各个角度都清楚地表明这是不可能的，但只是困惑，有那么一刻，他一贯的优雅，他平衡的张力，都消失了。
