Flexible pavement: Are those pavements which reflect the deformation of subgrade and the subsequent layers to the surface. Rigid pavement: The rigid characteristic of the pavement are associated with rigidity or flexural strength or slab action so the load is distributed over a wide area of subgrade soil.
The threads
There are many like flexible coupling, jaw coupling, sleeve coupling, tire coupling, pin and bush coupling, rigid coupling, etc
couplings are used to join sections of long transmission shafts. couplings are also used to connect the shaft of a driving machine to the shaft of a separately built machine so as to give an effect of continuous shaft. the general classification of couplings is as given under: 1. rigid coupling 2. flexible coupling 3.Camlock coupling
What is the difference between a service & isolation valve? Service & Isolation valves are an essential part of a bathroom suit. Both valves are available in a straight or bent form and can come rigid or flexible on a short pipe. In the UK, the fittings come in a 15 or 22mm size and varies from country to country. Remember to place a fibre washer in the service valve!
one is rigid and the other is flexible :)
The difference between a structure that is rigid and one that is flexible is that the rigid structure will not bend or flex when force is applied. A structure that is rigid cannot flex.
A socket is a female fitting that connects to a pipe or tubing, while a coupling is a device that connects two pipes or tubes together. Couplings can be either rigid or flexible, while sockets are typically fixed and do not allow movement.
Shaft couplings are used to couple or attach two shafts together, typically in an assembly where one shaft rotates and drives the other shaft -- for example, if a motor were to drive a pump, there would be a coupling between the two shafts. Shaft couplings can be rigid (accommodating no misalignment) or flexible (accommodating some angular and/or radial misalignment of the two shafts).

A yardstick is rigid - a tape measure is flexible.
The difference between strength and hardness is that the strength refers to the force that is present between the bonds. Strength attributes to how strong or weak the force between the bonds. Hardness refers to the nature of the force, which basically is how rigid or flexible the bonds between particles.
A lightweight and rigid.

The answer to the analogy "rigid is to flexible" is "strict is to lenient." Just as rigid and flexible are opposite in terms of stiffness, strict and lenient are opposite in terms of severity.
The word "pliable" completes the analogy. Rigid is to flexible as inflexible is to pliable.
