Yield strength is an important parameter in engineering materials, indicating the stress limit beyond which a material begins to deform plastically, maintaining permanent changes rather than returning to its original shape once the applied load is removed. This property is fundamental to the design and selection of materials in a variety of industrial applications, from […]

Breaking load and tensile strenght
Tensile Strength Tensile strength is a fundamental parameter of the mechanical properties of materials and identifies the ability of a material to resist tension before breaking. This characteristic is important for materials engineering, for the design of mechanical components and for ensuring the safety and reliability of products in different sectors. Characteristics and importance Tensile […]
Strain gauges for measurement of deformations in mechanical tests
Innovation and versatility in material testing Strain measurement is a crucial aspect in material testing. Often, the physical properties of a material are represented by a stress-strain curve, a kind of “signature” that allows us to characterize the material’s behavior. This measurement is fundamental not only for classifying materials but also for predicting how they […]
