A more recent technique for establishing yield stress through oscillation testing requires measuring the elastic stress component (σ'), which is linked with the elastic modulus (G'), as a function of ...

Break down three essential material properties, strength, ductility, and toughness, that every engineer and designer should ...

Determining Yield Stress. Determining a yield stress as a true material constant can be difficult, as the measured value can be can be very much dependent on the measurement technique employed and the ...

The yield stress characteristic is a property associated with numerous types of complex fluids - whereby the material does not flow unless the applied stress exceeds a certain value. This is evident ...

In our example, the 0.2% offset yield strength is a 88 ksi. This is a very important aspect of strength. It basically tells us the amount of stress we can apply before the material starts to ...

A patent-pending indentation method gathers data on a range of materials for which it was previously unobtainable Using Nanovea’s Mechanical Tester in indentation mode, with a cylindrical flat tip, it ...

A new method to determine yield strength based on hardness could be used in storage facility pipes with results more conservative than outlined in CFR Title 49 Part 195.106.
