It was still possible to be wounded by wooden splinters detached by the mechanical shock of an incoming cannonball " as in the days of sailing ships " and in the ensuing action " Barroso " had one such case, as did " Alag�as ".

With a utility transformer, there is quite a bump when the voltage is applied, with the mechanical shock to thr transformer causing dust to fly off, and sometimes causing protective relays to trip because the harmonics or inrush current seem like there is a fault, with normal voltage applied.

Environmental factors that can cause degradation of filters are extended exposure to high heat and humidity, thermal and / or mechanical shock ( most, but not all, LCTFs utilize glass as the principal base material ), and long-term exposure to high photonic energy such as ultraviolet light which can photobleach some of the materials used to construct the filters.

The main causes of such noise are e . g . thermal noise ( which limits the noise floor ), phonon scattering ( influenced by lattice defects ), adsorption / desorption of molecules on the surface of the crystal, noise of the oscillator circuits, mechanical shocks and vibrations, acceleration and orientation changes, temperature fluctuations, and relief of mechanical stresses.

The high frequency cuts are mounted by their edges, usually on springs; the stiffness of the spring has to be optimal, as if it is too stiff, mechanical shocks could be transferred to the crystal and cause it to break, and too little stiffness may allow the crystal to collide with the inside of the package when subjected to a mechanical shock, and break.

If more than one failure occurs simultaneously while the string is unpowered ( perhaps you dropped the string and mechanical shock broke several filaments ), there may not be enough voltage ( later ) on any given antifuse to blow it and that zone will stay out; that's one reason why prompt replacement of dead lamps is essential . ( The other reason is that with 49 lamps sharing the voltage intended for 50 lamps, they're all overloaded slightly.

The Atlas went in for a repeat performance on April 8 when Missile 48D, intended as the first closed-loop test of the AIG ( All Inertial Guidance System ), exploded on LC-11 almost as soon as it was released by the pad hold-down arms due to another episode of combustion instability, this time in the B-2 engine which backfired and ruptured from mechanical shock, starting a thrust section fire that led to the complete loss of the missile.
