What is a Tensile Test? A tensile test pulls (or stretches) a sample and, as a result, the extensibility/elongation and tensile strength properties are measured in ...

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 ...

A good combination of toughness, stiffness, and strength is required for fibers used in sophisticated applications, such as microelectronics, biomedical scaffolds, bulletproof vests, etc. However it ...
