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 ...

The CIEST Laboratory successfully completed testing pipe liner samples for “apparent hoop tensile strength” as described in ASTM D2290. The method uses a split disk to apply tensile forces to a hoop ...

German researchers and an electromobility company create a test facility that mimics realistic driving conditions and includes a digital twin. Automakers need test-bench technology that is fast, ...

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 ...

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 ongoing electrification of the drivetrain in cars and trains requires in-depth analyses of the drive, taking into account the respective boundary conditions and application scenarios. The AVL ...
