This class discusses how shear, compression, and tensile stress impact a material's properties, how force is shown on a stress-strain graph, and common methods manufacturers use to test a material's ...

Did you know that the typical stress-strain curve obtained from a uniaxial tensile test is just an approximation? It doesn't consider the fact that the dimensions of the test specimen change ...

With a simple sample geometry, a 3-point-bend test can be used to obtain stress-strain behavior, elastic modulus in bending (flexural modulus), and failure limits in bending. The standards ASTM E855, ...
