Signal-conditioning IC simplifies strain-gage bridge sensor setup. Strain-gage sensors are used in many applications including manufacturing, process control, and research. They convert strain into an ...

Strain measurement is imperative during prototype design and testing. Measuring strain ensures that materials perform as they should and that equipment is safe, functional, and durable. The resistive ...

The entire stress-strain curve can now be determined using nanoindentation with a flat-ended cylindrical punch and novel analysis of the resulting force-displacement data 1. Unlike pyramidal indenters ...

Three samples of shale rock, two from the Eagle Ford play and one from the Haynesville play, were successfully tested by instrumented indentation using a Nano Indenter G200 from KLA. Results were ...

Ian McEnteggart, Composites Market Manager at Instron, talks to AZoM about the importance of strain measurement in materials development. What is strain and why is strain measurement important to ...
