  "term": "Shock",
  "field": "Industrial and trades",
  "definition": "A sudden, intense impact or force applied to a mechanical system, resulting in a rapid transfer of energy and potentially causing stress or damage. This transient event can arise from impacts, sudden accelerations, or rapid changes in load. Shock absorbers are devices designed to dissipate this energy and dampen oscillations in systems like vehicle suspensions.",
