In my last column, I discussed uniaxial flexural strength testing of fiber-reinforced ceramics, that is, simple three- or four-point bending of a strip of material of rectangular cross section (see ...

Universal testing machines outfitted with bend fixtures are used in calculating flexural strength, flexural modulus, yield point, and more. This article will explore the requisite equipment for ...

President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. Because composite structures are subjected to flexural loading in typical applications, it is not surprising that flexure testing of composites is commonly ...

Highly developed universal testing machines and custom testing systems are of use in running tests and the determination of properties, for example breaking strength, ductility, elongation, fracture ...
