The offset shear strength is the shear stress endured by a material at the intersection of the shear stress versus the engineering shear strain curve, with a line parallel to a defined modulus and ...

Many test methods are available for measuring the shear properties of composite materials. The V-notched methods are currently among the most popular, in part because they can produce a relatively ...

The picture frame shear test method achieved some popularity in the early days of composite materials development when few other shear test methods existed. But as the two- and three-rail shear test ...

Austenitic welds and welds that contain heterogenous weld materials are increasingly used in various industries. These welds can be used to manufacture components with enhanced or custom-engineered ...
