In the Known Space stories, Niven had created a number of technological devices ( GP hull, stasis field, Ringworld material ) which, combined with the " Teela Brown gene ", made it very difficult to construct engaging stories beyond a certain date — the combination of factors made it tricky to produce any kind of creditable threat / problem without complex contrivances.

A hull material that gets stronger with pressure in the film The Core was nicknamed unobtainium, but the concept under different names can be seen in the anti-gravity material cavorite and the super-strong material scrith from Larry Niven's novel Ringworld, which requires a tensile strength on the order of the forces binding an atomic nucleus together.

They design a multi-compartment vessel called the Virgil with the help of Ed " Braz " Brazzelton ( Delroy Lindo ), who has developed both a laser capable of quickly boring through rock and a material known as " unobtainium " suitable for the vessel's hull.

One important modification carried out as the result of operational experience in Afghanistan was the fitting of a second layer of stand-off armour, usually a high resistant ballistic rubber-like material, to act as spaced armour around the top of the hull sides and around the turret.

A trampoline, when used in the context of a sailboat, is a very high strength material under high tension woven together in strips to provide flat areas in between hull members on Catamarans or Trimarans.

The moment of inertia ( technically, second moment of area ) of the hull section is calculated by finding the neutral or central axis of the beam and then totaling up the quantity for each section of plate or girder making up the hull, with being the moment of inertia of that section of material, being the width ( horizontal dimension ) of the section, being the height of the section ( vertical dimension ), being the area of the section and being the vertical distance of the center of that section from the neutral axis.

Yet he presents a realm of source material which may well serve other writers if not himself: the problems with which a New South must grapple in groping through a blind adolescence into the maturity of urbanization.

He and also Mr. Cowley and Mr. Warren have fallen to the temptation which besets many of us to read into our authors -- Nathaniel Hawthorne, for example, and Herman Melville -- protests against modernism, material progress, and science which are genuine protests of our own but may not have been theirs.

Also available from this company are Snug-Grip Plasti-Bars, extruded of transparent acrylic material, which may be cemented to any corrugated acrylic background material.

One may conclude that most of the detected micrometeoritic material is concentrated in orbital streams which intersect the Earth's orbit.

While the particular limits of these groupings may seem artificially arbitrary, they do fairly express a corresponding grouping of more variable material, and they eventuate also in five classes, along a similar scale, containing approximately equal numbers of cases, namely 19, 14, 15, 11, 12 in Athabascan.

His formula will have to be weighed, may be altered or improved, and it should be tested on additional bodies of material.

This latter construal is sometimes expressed by saying " there is no fact of the matter as to whether or not P ." Thus, we may speak of anti-realism with respect to other minds, the past, the future, universals, mathematical entities ( such as natural numbers ), moral categories, the material world, or even thought.
