Universal testing machines outfitted with bend fixtures are used in calculating flexural strength, flexural modulus, yield point, and more. This article will explore the requisite equipment for ...

This video shows flexure testing of plastics to ISO178 using the AutoX750 from Instron. The ISO 178 investigates the flexural behavior of plastics to determine the flexural strength, flexural modulus, ...

In my last column, I discussed uniaxial flexural strength testing of fiber-reinforced ceramics, that is, simple three- or four-point bending of a strip of material of rectangular cross section (see ...
