Ultimate tensile strength (UTS), often shortened to tensile strength (TS), ultimate strength, or Ftu within equations, is the maximum stress that a material can withstand while being stretched or ...

We will look at a very easy experiment that provides lots of information about the strength or the mechanical behavior of a material, called the tensile test. The basic idea of a tensile test is to ...

Researchers from Hohai University, Northwestern University, and Politecnico di Milano have introduced a pioneering mesoscale mechanical discrete model, LDPM-MicroF, to simulate the fracture behavior ...

Researchers at The University of New Mexico (UNM) have achieved a major milestone in construction innovation by patenting a ...

We took a look at some of the strongest 3D printing materials, focusing on filaments for FDM, to see how they differ and ...

In particular, synthetic rope is gaining popularity in marine & fishing, oil & gas, and sports & leisure industries, where ...
