When the new Wanda Vista Towers building is completed in Chicago it will be 1,140 feet tall with 95 floors. The footprint of the building will be approximately 350 by 150 feet and will feature a hotel ...

This is a note on the compressive modulus of elasticity of Gap Pad materials, including the variability in compressive modulus values, the constant rate of strain relaxation modulus, and compression ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. However, this relationship between stress and strain in a material is linear only when the force applied is within ...

Toray Industries, Inc. announced that it has developed Torayca™ M46X carbon fibre. The new offering is around 20% stronger than others in the Torayca™ MX series while maintaining a high tensile ...

A recent article in Communications Materials proposed a novel approach to enhance the elastic modulus of a cast aluminum alloy by incorporating isostructural Laves phases to form a multi-component, ...

The elastic modulus relates the applied stress to the strain it produces. In a material that obeys Hooke's Law, the initial uniaxial elastic response is linear with stress and strain coupled through ...

Nanoindentation is a measurement technique which is important in measuring Young’s modulus and hardness in thin films and any other situations involving the measurement of limited amounts of material.
