UCLA doctoral student Yilin Wong noticed that some tiny dots had appeared on one of her samples, which had been accidentally ...

The diagram shows the frame geometry of a conventional bicycle. It is important to determine which components are in tension, which in compression, which experience bending forces, and what the ...

When a load pushes down on the beam, the beam's top edge is pushed together (compression) while the bottom edge is stretched (tension). Take a flat eraser or a small sponge and slice a shallow ...

The deformation of the specimens can be monitored in situ during compression or tension. Specimens can be from 30 to 60 mm length, up to 10 mm wide and up to 4 mm high. Specimens can be from 30 to 60 ...

Suitable for testing in compression with the proper adapters, the grips can be used from -80⁰ C to +250⁰ C (-112⁰ F to +482⁰ F) without changing lubricants. These 100 kN (22,000 lbf) and 250 kN ...
