In order to measure the mechanical properties of materials in compression, tension, bending or torsion, a universal testing machine is utilized. This article outlines the two different types ...

In this subsection on error models, we describe some general assumptions we make regarding errors. We then list the error models we consider for this work. Finally ...

Plastics compounders routinely perform mechanical tests as part of the product development cycle. Producers often turn to universal testing machines (UTMs) to pull, stretch, bend or compress test ...

To err is to be human. But what claims can be made about your system’s analog to digital converter (ADC)? We will review the extent of our conversion error rate ...
