Highly developed universal testing machines and custom testing systems are of use in running tests and the determination of properties, for example breaking strength, ductility, elongation, fracture ...

Mechanical testing is a way of testing and measuring the properties of materials. Machines/instruments are available to test materials or finished products in a range of different ways including ...

When first introduced to mechanical testing of composite materials, one can be confused, even overwhelmed, by the number of available test standards. One reason for this large variety of tests is the ...

Tensile testing, compression testing, ausforming, extrusion, and other hot-forming deformation 3 kW induction heating Thermal chamber for mechanical testing from -130℃ to 350℃ Displacement, load, and ...

Compared to metals such as aluminum and steel, the number of stiffness and strength properties associated with polymer matrix composites (PMCs) is extensive. For metals, these mechanical properties ...

Fully integrated digital closed loop control thermal and mechanical testing system utilized for research in welding and high temperature mechanical properties such as hot formability in metals. Can be ...

Micropillar compression testing [1] is fast emerging as a viable alternative to nanoindentation, for the measurement of mechanical properties and deformation behavior of small volumes and thin films.

Composites are materials composed of at least two distinct phases (for example carbon fibers in a polymer matrix) in a defined geometric relationship, which are constructed in such a manner that the ...

Stretchable electronics combines the electronic performance of conventional wafer-based semiconductor devices and mechanical properties of a rubber band, and thus can have very broad applications that ...
