計算

Hardness

（硬度）

The maximum force of the 1st compression.

Same

Fracturability（脆性）

The force at the first peak

Peak Force at F1

Cohesiveness（內聚性）

The area of work during the second compression divided by the area of work during the first compression.

Area 2/Area 1 

Springiness

（彈性）

Springiness is now expressed as a ratio or percentage of a product's original height. Springiness is measured several ways, but most typically, by the distance of the detected height during the second compression divided by the original compression distance.

Distance 2 / Distance 1 
Optional (same value): Time 2/Time 1

Gumminess 

（膠著性）
(semi-solids)

Gumminess is mutually exclusive with Chewiness since a product would not be both a semi-solid and a solid at the same time.

Hardness * (Area 2/Area 1)
 

Hardness x Cohesiveness

Gumminess applies only to semi-solid products and is Hardness * Cohesiveness (which is Area 2/Area 1).

Chewiness 

（咀嚼性）
(solids)

Gumminess * Distance 2 / Distance 1

Hardness x Cohesiveness x Springiness

Chewiness applies only to solid products and is calculated as Gumminess * Springiness (which is Distance2/Distance1).

Resilience

（回復性）

It is calculated by dividing the upstroke energy of the first compression by the downstroke energy of the first compression.

Area 4/Area 3
