Shore durometer is in MPa. Another linear relation between the ASTM D2240 hardness value and material elastic modulus has the form where formula_14 is the ASTM D2240 type A hardness, formula_11 is the ASTM D2240 type D hardness, and formula_2 is the Young's modulus in MPa. Shore durometer The Shore durometer is a device for measuring the hardness of a material, typically of polymers, elastomers, and rubbers.. Higher numbers on the scale indicate a greater resistance to indentation and thus harder materials. Lower numbers indicate less resistance and softer materials. The term is also used to describe a material‘s rating on the
The Opposing Shore and self-destructive. The dreamlike qualities of the novel are related to Gracq's previous affinity with the surrealist movement; Gracq described "The Opposing Shore" as an "awakened dream". The book was published through José Corti in 1951. An English translation by Richard Howard was published by Columbia University Press in 1986. Elisabeth Cardonne-Arlyck wrote in "The New York Times" in 1986: In different ways, the French title "Le Rivage des Syrtes" and its English counterpart, "The Opposing Shore," conjure up this old image of an alien coast, clearly still vivid in the Western imagination. ...
