If you’re serious about engineering the things you build, you need to know the limits of the materials you’re working with. One important way to characterize materials is to test the tensile strength ...
A video demonstrating and automated mechanical testing system by Zwick/Roell. The system includes different set ups for tensile, bend and (Izod) impact tensile tests for several different types of ...
This article by ADMET discusses foam tensile strength testing. A foam tensile strength test can be found in ASTM D3574 Test E which applies to slab, bonded, and molded flexible cellular urethane foams ...
The in-plane strength properties of a composite material, axial and transverse tension and compression and in-plane shear, are usually the first to be considered in design. However, ...
