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 ...

Compared to traditional structural materials, polymer matrix composites (PMC) offer greatly enhanced performance and flexibility. However, these benefits come at the cost of increased material ...

President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. Unlike metals and plastics, for which tensile and compressive properties are the same or very similar, unidirectional composites exhibit significantly different ...

The study of drill pipe failure analysis and fatigue testing is critical in understanding the mechanisms behind fracture and degradation in drilling operations. Research in this field integrates ...

Mad Fiber makes some impressively light carbon wheels which we’ve had great success with in testing in both cyclocross and road environments. Their carbon spoked and carbon rim tubular wheels are the ...
