Dynamic strain rate testing is a critical methodology for examining how materials respond under rapidly applied loads. This approach enables researchers to quantify mechanical properties such as ...

In my August 2021 column, I introduced the composites building block approach as a step-by-step series of mechanical tests of increasing complexity, coupled with analyses performed at each step, that ...

A paint or pigmented coating is basically a dispersion of pigment particles in a fluid matrix. Most dispersion Manufacturers realize that success or failure of a product is dependent on properties ...
