The picture frame shear test method achieved some popularity in the early days of composite materials development when few other shear test methods existed. But as the two- and three-rail shear test ...
President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. In my October 2015 column, I compared three V-notched shear test configurations used to measure the shear stiffness and shear strength of composite materials: The ...
Textile reinforced concrete composites represent an advanced class of cementitious materials in which continuous fibre grids—often composed of non-metallic textiles—are embedded within a concrete or ...
The traditional method for determining yield stress on a rotational rheometer or viscometer was by fitting models to the measured rheograms and extrapolating to zero shear rate. This article discusses ...
