Sheet metal forming operations can vary greatly in their processes. From simple bending to stretching to deep drawing of complex parts, sheet metal forming operations may take many forms. Image Credit ...

Nanoporous metals made by dealloying 1, 2, 3 take the form of monolithic bodies consisting of an interconnected network of nanoscale ‘ligaments’ in a polycrystalline microstructure with typically 10 ...

Intuitively, we know that a "simple" tensile test is the most fundamental of all mechanical property tests. It tells us how strong and how stiff a material is, and for most essentially isotropic ...

As composite materials are used more extensively in structural applications, some test methods that once were considered very specialized and, therefore, not widely used, have become more significant.
