A biaxial test for rheological and formability identification
Accurate constitutive laws and formability limits of materials are essential for a numerical optimization of sheet forming processes. The main objective of this work is to develop a new experimental device able to give for a unique specimen a good ...

Bayesian optimization of laser-aided fracture toughness specimen preparation
Reliable lifetime prediction of ceramic components requires fracture toughness measurements supported by sharp, reproducible artificial defects. Conventional notching techniques often lack consistency, are time-consuming, and are particularly limited for

Investigation of the positioning accuracy of the Cat’s Eye as a reference position in asphere-measuring interferometry [PDF]
Fast and accurate asphere and freeform measurements are in high demand by the optics manufacturing industry. Interferometric methods such as tilted-wave interferometry meet these demands but require accurate surface positioning of the specimen along the ...

Characterization of transverse anisotropy in Poisson's ratio using three-point radial deformation measurements [PDF]
Poisson's ratio (v) of rock specimens can be experimentally determined from radial deformation measurements in an unconfined compression test. This is commonly achieved by mounting a compressometer with diametric or perimetric measurement capability ...

Design and manufacturing optimization of epoxy-based adhesive specimens for multiaxial tests
Specimen design and manufacturing quality are decisive factors in the experimental determination of material properties, because they can only be reliably determined if all undesired influences have been minimized or are precisely known.

Graphene in cryo-EM specimen optimization
Specimen preparation is a critical but challenging step in high-resolution cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structural analysis of macromolecules. In the past decade, graphene has gained much recognition as the supporting substrate to optimize cryo-EM specimen preparation.
