1. 1.1 The reduction in volume (causing an increase in pressure) of the fuel mixture in an internal combustion engine before ignition.
  （点火前内燃机中混合燃料体积的）压缩
  Example sentencesExamples

Derivatives

compressional

adjective

Intraplate compressional stresses resulting from ‘ridge push’ have been suggested by some workers to explain the Neogene uplift of Scandinavia.
Example sentencesExamples
- In general, the attainment of peak pressure conditions in compressional systems such as the Delamerian Orogeny reflects the effects of crustal thickening.
- The universe, once clean and consistent, was becoming a mottled, furrowed, anisotropic mess due to the opposing compressional and tensile stresses induced by gravitationally attractive and repulsive forces.
- Furthermore, upper plate margins such as the Voting Basin and possibly the Faeroe Basin have a lower compressional strength than lower plate margins such as the More Basin, and therefore preferentially developed inversion structures.
- Like the Northwest Flank Fault, the Bala Fault was reactivated during Cretaceous and Neogene inversion with compressional strain restricted mainly to right-stepping jogs along the fault.

Origin

Late Middle English: via Old French from Latin compressio(n-), from comprimere 'press together' (see compress).
