SEVERAL investigators have shown that the behaviour of rubber is affected appreciably by its previous stress-strain history. Their observations, in the main however, are based on indirect ...

When a material experiences an applied uniaxial tensile stress, s, it displays a strain ... have a non-linear relationship between stress and strain, a behavior exhibited by materials such as a rubber ...

This video is an introduction to stress and strain, which are fundamental concepts that are used to describe how an object ...

Did you know that the typical stress-strain curve obtained from a uniaxial tensile test is just an approximation? It doesn't consider the fact that the dimensions of the test specimen change ...

We will look at a very easy experiment that provides lots of information about the strength or the mechanical behavior of a material, called the tensile test ... and engineering strain (displacement ...
