Definitions

1. Capable of being dented.

Examples

“Seatbelts, airbags, collapsible steering columns, dentable windscreens, squashable fascias and squashable front and rear ends have⟳ all added to safety, but how? To answer⟳ that you will need⟳ to recall⟳ some GCSE physics and learn⟳ more formal ways of expressing it — using equations and graphs.”

“It will be useful to observe⟳ that a nonempty bounded set⟳ C is dentable if its closed convex hull is dentable...”
