Materials testing tests the accuracy and load capacity of materials in different environmental conditions. Materials testing is not only performed at research institutes, it also helps companies to ...

Indentation testing is a non-destructive evaluation method that has become indispensable in the determination of materials’ mechanical properties. By applying a controlled force through an indenter ...

Small punch testing (SPT) has emerged as an indispensable technique for assessing the mechanical properties of materials using only tiny specimens. By utilising a miniature, disc‐shaped specimen ...

Compared to metals such as aluminum and steel, the number of stiffness and strength properties associated with polymer matrix composites (PMCs) is extensive. For metals, these mechanical properties ...

Bridging the gap between theory and reality, material testing transforms dense technical specifications into the physical ...

The “DNA” of Faserinstitut Bremen e.V.’s (FIBRE) research is materials testing. At its ECOMAT site, much of its composites research is focused on aerospace and/or sustainability, including work in ...
