Now then, if water isn't absolutely incompressible, at least it compresses very little.

是，水虽是绝对缩，但至少是很难缩。

The fact that water is incompressible has literally shaped the development of fish.

水缩这一事实从字面上影响了鱼类的发育。

Yet there is one basic difficulty to living in water --- the fact that it's incompressible.

然而，生活水中有一个基本的困难——它是缩的。

But now your squishable lungs are surrounded by incompressible water in the path of the blast wave.

但现，你那缩的肺部位于爆炸波路径上，被缩的水所包围。

And all of that is just for the case of incompressible fluid flow, where something compressible, like air, makes things trickier still.

所有这些都只是针对缩流流动的情况，其中缩的东西（例如空气）使事情变得更加棘手。

Water is incompressible, which means not only is the blast wave not dissipated, but it passes right through your mostly water body.

水是缩的， 这意味着冲击波仅会消散，还会直接穿过你那主要由水构成的身。

And since you’re dealing with an incompressible fluid, the density is going to be the same for every point in the pipe anyway.

而且由于您理缩的流， 因此无论如何管道中每个点的密度都是相同的。

And since you're dealing with an incompressible fluid, the density is going to be the same for every point in the pipe anyway.

由于流是缩的，所以它保持 管中任何一点的密度都是相同的。

That would be like your arms and legs, which have no air in them, and they are basically incompressible like water, and would be fine.

这就像你的手臂和腿，它们内部没有空气， 基本上像水一样缩，因此会受到影响。

Loosely packed dry soils tend to compress under stress, but with incompressible water unable to escape the gaps between grains, the soil can't compress and the water takes the load.

松散的干土应力作用下容易缩，但由于缩的水无法从土粒间的缝隙中逸出，土壤无法缩，水就承担了负荷。

So this represents the initial energy of the blast, which then comes down and passes through the incompressible water, and then comes out without losing any energy at the water surface.

所以这代表了爆炸的初始能量，然后它向下传递并通过缩的水，最后水面释放出来而没有损失任何能量。

Because we are made largely of water ourselves, and water is virtually incompressible, in the words of Frances Ashcroft of Oxford University, the body remains at the same pressure as the surrounding water, and is not crushed at depth.

由于很大程度上我们本身也是由水组成的，而水——用牛津大学弗朗西斯·阿什克罗夫特的话来说——“实际上是扁的”，因此人仍会保持与周围水一样的力，会被死。
