KANG, S-T; PARK, J-J; RYU, G-S; KOH, G-T; KIM, S.W. Comparison of tensile strength with different test methods in ultra-high strength steel-fiber reinforced concrete. Key Materials Engineering, v. 417-418, 2010, pp.649-652....
They are often measured during the development of new materials and processes. This is done to compare different materials and processes. They predict the behavior of a material under various forms of loading other than uniaxial tension. What are the factors affecting the tensile strength of plastic...
Strength of MaterialsThe following are basic definitions and equations used to calculate the strength of materials.Stress normal Stress is the ratio of applied load to the cross-sectional area of an element in tension and is expressed in pounds per square inch (psi) or kg/mm2.Load...
RECENTLY Carr1and Douglas2have commented on the equation for the tensile strength of granular materials as derived by V. Smalley and myself3, where σ is the tensile strength, Γ is a numerical constant,Bis the bonding force of particle to particle,tis the thickness of the fracture zone (me...
For granular materials,it is impossible to measure constant tensile strength,unless the flaw effect is taken into account in the framework of fractal. The fractal dimension of flaw distribution equals to that of the fragmentation of granular materials. The Weibull statistics is modified using the ...
the tensile strength of some materials may decrease at high temperatures, while others may exhibit an increase in strength. Similarly, the tensile strength of a material may decrease as the rate of deformation increases.Fatiguecan also affect the tensile strength of a material, causing it to decre...
In this study, tensile strength properties of rammed earth materials and effects of test conditions are evaluated by conducting direct tension tests and splitting tests on several specimens. It is inferred from the result of these test that the direct tension test should be used to evaluate ...
Tensile strength, maximum load that a material can support without fracture when being stretched, divided by the original cross-sectional are of the material. Tensile strengths have dimensions of force per unit area, which are commonly expressed in units
18.4.2.1 Flexural Strength The average flexural strength of each mix in perpendicular direction is presented in Table 18.5. As expected, the flexural strengths of GP-PBO, GP-PVA, and GP-PP containing different types of fibers were 34%, 23%, and 17%, respectively, higher than that of GP-...
The tensile strengths of several different aligned fiber-epoxy resin com posites containing cracks perpendicular to the fibers have been measured as a function of crack size. The fibers were surface treated and surface untreated, high and low modulus, carbon; and S-glass. Thus, the effect of ...
