Product security and reliability are major concerns in the semiconductor and PCB fabrication industries. Because of this, ...

This paper presents a study on the compressive behavior of steel fiber-reinforced concrete. In this study, an analytical model for stress-strain curve for steel fiber-reinforced concrete is derived ...

Abstract Materials subjected to moderate/large strains that exhibit similar tension and compression trends on the stress-strain diagram have several applications. Inspired by this aspect of this ...

Many studies on strain localization of geomaterials have been carried out over the past few decades. Theoretical analysis and numerical models show that the dilatancy property strongly affects the ...

The entire stress-strain curve can now be determined using nanoindentation with a flat-ended cylindrical punch and novel analysis of the resulting force-displacement data 1. Unlike pyramidal indenters ...

A stress-strain curve can be generated, and the transitioning point from linear to plateau will indicate where plastic deformation initiates. c) Hardness Test: The hardness test indirectly determines ...

The last article talked about stress, strain and what they mean. This article continues the discussion by talking about how strength tests are performed, some of the considerations and how the data ...

Stress-strain curves are important representations of a given material's mechanical properties, which depend primarily on the orientation of the individual crystals in the microstructure. Generating ...
