Withstanding a certain static load at a maximum deflection without collapsing is the typical requirement for a mechanical structure. However, in actual scenario, the material is exposed to repeated ...

Mechanical parts are more frequently subjected to cyclic loads than solely static loads. Fatigue issues are commonly observed in turbine blades, aerospace components, locomotive systems, large ...

Firstly, it can help materials meet specific regulatory standards and requirements. For instance, materials used in biomedical devices must be biocompatible and safe in the body. Determine mechanical ...

Static flexural testing has long been conducted because it is a simple method for evaluating all types of materials. Static flexural testing of composite materials, in particular, was discussed in my ...

Thanks to a new understanding of how bones maintain their strength, we may someday see bone-inspired materials used in the production of longer-lasting products such as aircraft wings. The findings ...
