The Janka hardness test (English: / ˈ dʒ æ ŋ k ə /; [1] German:), created by Austrian-born American researcher Gabriel Janka (1864–1932), measures the resistance of a sample of wood to denting and wear. [citation needed] It measures the force required to embed an 11.28-millimeter-diameter (7 ⁄ 16 in) steel ball halfway into a sample of ...
Knoop hardness test (HK), for measurement over small areas, widely used to test glass or ceramic material. [8] Janka hardness test, for wood; Meyer hardness test; Rockwell hardness test (HR), principally used in the USA. HRA, HRB and HRC scales are most widely used. [9] Shore hardness test, for polymers, widely used in the rubber industry. [10]

The wood is extremely hard, being one of the hardest woods in Northern America with a Janka hardness test of 1,700 lbf (7,560 N) [46] and specific gravity of 0.733 (733 kilograms per cubic metre or 45.7 pounds per cubic foot).
PTSD therapy often takes the form of asking the patient to re-live the damaging experience over and over, until the fear subsides. But for a medic, say, whose pain comes not from fear but from losing a patient, being forced to repeatedly recall that experience only drives the pain deeper, therapists have found.
