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 ...

Material testing is important in big industry, where manufacturers must be able to trust the properties of the raw materials they’re using. The rest of us generally take a supplier’s word for it that ...

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 ...

Compared to general structural steels, high tensile strength steel has increased strength making it ideal for the automotive industry where environmental problems and demands for collision safety are ...

HUDSON, Ohio—Alpha Technologies is making tensile testing more destructive. In a good way. In partnership with Horshman, Pa.-based Tinius Olsen Testing Machine Co., a global manufacturer and supplier ...

This paper investigates the effect of specimen geometry and test boundary conditions on the measured dynamic mechanical properties of high strength sheet steel derived from high speed tensile testing ...
