Yes, of course. But at the same reference-tension, and if you use a cp correctly, the tension-loss after clamping the string is marginal compared with a lock-outOn conventional stringing, the pitch of the string goes down between the clamp and the far grommet once one clamps off.
Well, you come up with a nice term for elliminating the permanent-elongation ( that part of the elongation that "stays" after you stopp pulling and let the string relax)There is no such thing as "taking the creep out".
Yes, twisted steal wire can act as a "spring". I was referring to "straight forward steel wire" , which can not be used due to lack of elasticitytwisted steel wires
The energy goes into the deformation of the stringbed. Look at the definition of SBS.The starting SBS has very little to do with arm safety. If you have deformed the string to the point where it stops stretching, the dynamic response of the stringbed will absorb much less energy from ball impact. Assuming you strike the ball with the same force, where is all that energy going? There aren't very many places, I can assure you.
I meant "length-string", should have used M-string.What the heck is an "L-string," by the way?
Elasticity is the only thing that holds the tension of the string and the stringbed.You are confounding elasticity with elongation here. Less deformation in the perpendicular plane of the string bed (the elastic elongation) doesn't have much to do with string tension or the ability to hold it.
Lets take 2 examples:
- take a string that has NO elongation when stressed. You stress at 30kg's, clamp, and what happens? No tension in the string
- take a string without elasticity, and just some creep: tension at 30kg's, the string will deform, and after releasing the tension, the deformation is still there. So if you use this string, you will not be able to give this string any tension.
see my previous post with measured dataThe suggestion that the elasticity isn't affected is... wrong.
