The stresses involved in impact are complicated by the fact that there are various ways in which the energy of the striking body may be spent: (a) It produces a local deformation of both bodies at the surface of contact, within or beyond the elastic limit.

~Stiffness~ is the property by means of which a body acted upon by external forces tends to retain its natural size and shape, or resists deformation.

"Thus in the case of placing a load on a beam, if the load be brought into contact with the beam, but its weight sustained by external means, as by a cord, and then this external support be suddenly (instantaneously) removed, as by quickly cutting the cord, then, although the load is already touching the beam (and hence there is no real impact), yet the beam is at first offering no resistance, as it has yet suffered no deformation.
