When we reach point 3, we can determine the tensile strength or maximum stress (or load) the material can support. It is not a very useful property, since the material has permanently deformed at this ...

All materials behave in an elastic manner and the application of a load will cause the length of the element to change. If the uniaxial tensile load is too large the material may fracture of develop a ...

Parrotfish are a group of 90-odd species found in coral reefs, seagrass beds, and rocky areas around the world, with the ...

Tendons are designed to take tensile load, but excessive load can cause overuse tendinopathy. Overuse tendinopathy results in extensive changes to the cells and extracellular matrix, resulting in ...

Although tendons are often overlooked, they serve an equally important role as our muscles in our ability to move.

Chapters show how multi scale modeling is used to relate concrete composition to tensile properties. Part two focuses on dynamic response and starts with an introduction to the different regimes of ...

Takeout containers get your favorite noodles from the restaurant to your dining table (or couch) without incident, but they ...

A research team, led by Professor Hoon Eui Jeong from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UNIST has introduced an ...

Understanding fatigue failure mechanisms, testing methods, and strategies to enhance material fatigue resistance is critical ...

On the flipside, there are many mighty metric cruisers under $20,000 promising better packages. In terms of sheer performance ...

Using a custom-built machine to launch microprojectiles at supersonic speeds, Cornell researchers have uncovered new details ...
