Resilience

The capability of returning to original size and shape after deformation Resilience: The technical term used to describe “bounce” or “snap”. Increasing resilience means an increasing “bounciness”. Measured on standard test equipment (commonly examples being Dunlop, Tripsometer, Lupke, and Rebound). Standard test pieces are struck by a standard ‘hammer’ and the ‘bounce back’ of the hammer measured. This is expressed as a percentage of the flight path of the hammer.
