President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. Unlike metals and plastics, for which tensile and compressive properties are the same or very similar, unidirectional composites exhibit significantly different ...

Currently, the rebound hammer is widely used for estimation of compressive strength of concrete as general testing method. Although rebound hammer has made great contribution for compressive strength ...

During the late 1960s and most of the 1970s, the composites industry was absorbing the impact of what was then the recent introduction of carbon fiber. The resulting composites exhibited both high ...

Researchers have, for the first time, used a 'micropillar compression' technique to characterize the micro-scale strength of cement, allowing for the development of cement with desirable strength ...

Measuring the in-situ compressive strength of concrete in final structures is an essential but challenging process. Coring combined with non-destructive rebound hammer measurements provides the most ...

General Plastics typically uses multiple pour-in-place processes when filling nuclear packaging impact limiters or over packs with LAST-A-FOAM ® FR-3700 series of material. It may be necessary to ...

High quality and versatile Compression Testing Machine with certification of a UKAS accredited calibration. The Compression Testing machine CRT-CTM250-II was developed to perform a variety of ...

A segmental compression system assesses radial strength and stiffness. Radial strength and radial stiffness are critical functional attributes in the design of endovascular devices such as stents, ...
