When extracts of a medical device are required for a biocompatibility test protocol, a current practice is to follow the guidance in ISO 10993 Biological evaluation of medical devices–Part 12: Sample ...

Most ultrasonic flaw detection and thickness gaging are carried out at normal temperatures. However, sometimes a hot material requires testing, for example, in process industries. In these instances, ...

Compared to metals such as aluminum and steel, the number of stiffness and strength properties associated with polymer matrix composites (PMCs) is extensive. For metals, these mechanical properties ...

Harnessing the power of machine learning, scientists have developed a material testing technique that improves the accuracy of a previous technique used in manufacturing. Nano-indentation is a process ...

The materials testing allows for the study of mechanical and durability properties of structural and construction materials under various loading and environmental conditions. Our lab offers unique ...

For nearly 150 years, construction materials testing has been a manual effort. Whether in an engineering lab, a commercial lab, at cement/ready-mix manufacturers’ sites or in the field, specimens are ...

Construction has started in Granada, Spain, of the International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility-Demo Oriented Neutron Source project. The facility will provide a fusion‐like neutron source for ...

Why today’s high-speed, high-frequency designs have very little “wiggle room” within them relative to laminate properties. Why the end-product’s application and performance determine the most critical ...
