The elastic recoil helps conserve the energy from the pumping heart and smooth out the pulsatile nature created by the heart.

For heavier ions in elastic recoil detection analysis, if " m 2 / m 1 " max ", as equation 2 describes:
13.
At this moment, elastic recoil energy is at its maximum and a large amount of this energy is absorbed and is added to the next stride.
14.
Then, the airway pressure drops to zero, and the elastic recoil of the chest wall and lungs push the tidal volume the breath-out through passive exhalation.
15.
Low compliance indicates a stiff lung ( one with high elastic recoil ) and can be thought of as a thick balloon-this is the case often seen in fibrosis.
16.
High compliance indicates a pliable lung ( one with low elastic recoil ) and can be thought of as a grocery bag-this is the case often seen in emphysema.
17.
Ion beam techniques RBS and elastic recoil detection analysis combination has proved to be an attractive way to study the elemental composition of the samples as well as the depth profiles of the thin films.
18.
One consequence of the incorporation of an elastic recoil mechanism to the tongue projection mechanism is relative thermal insensitivity of tongue projection relative to tongue retraction, which is powered by muscle contraction alone, and is heavily thermally sensitive.

In a study published last month in The New England Journal of Medicine, the Pittsburgh group said surgery increased elastic recoil in the lungs of 16 of 20 patients, who greatly increased the distance they could walk four months after the operation.
20.
Disadvantages were that inhalation depended upon elastic recoil of the chest and upon gravity pulling the diaphragm back down, and so breathing could be shallow and the patient could not lie down; attention was required in its use, and the action gave the patient more discomfort compared with cabinet ( iron lung ) respirators.
