In this article, we will examine three essential aspects of flat tensile specimens: where and why they are used, how international standards and geometry influence test outcomes, and what practical ...

This video demonstrates the ISO 37 elastomer tensile strength and elongation test from ADMETestSystems. This test method is used for determining the tensile properties of the elastomers. A tensile ...

What is a Tensile Test? A tensile test pulls (or stretches) a sample and, as a result, the extensibility/elongation and tensile strength properties are measured in ...

One material property that is widely used and recognized is the strength of a material. But what does the word "strength" mean? "Strength" can have many meanings, so let us take a closer look at what ...

When we think of tensile specimen grips, our first mental image is probably that of the wedge grips that apply uniform clamping forces to the ends of flat test specimens. These were discussed in ...

Among the most common properties reported for fiber-reinforced polymers are those obtained from tensile testing of a unidirectional (UD) composite in the fiber direction. These properties include ...

The surface of water provides an excellent environment for gliding movement, in both nature and modern technology, from surface living animals such as the water strider, to Langmuir–Blodgett films.
