The tensile strength of coal

British Journal of Applied Physics, 1956
Apparatus is described which has been developed for the measurement of the tensile strength of coal by bending thin strips. Measurements on four coals show that the strength depends on the type of coal and on the direction of loading relative to the bedding planes.

Tensile Strength of Asbestos

Nature, 1959
ASBESTOS is the generic name for those silicate minerals which cleave naturally into fibres, the three important species being chrysotile (white asbestos), crocidolite (blue asbestos) and amosite. This unique mineral structure lends itself better to measurements of tensile strength than do the more common minerals with isotropic or platy structures ...

Study of high tensile strength of natural continuous basalt fibers

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2018
In this article, the tensile strength, melting properties, and fiber-forming properties of natural continuous basalt fibers, such as andesite, andesite basalt, and tholeiitic basalt, are investigated as a function of their chemical and mineral ...

Tensile Strength of Unsaturated Soils

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1985
AbstractA better understanding of the nature of tensile failure in unsaturated soils is important if adequate theories explaining the behavior of soils under tillage or during processes such as frost heaving are to be developed. In this paper, the problem of tensile failure of uncemented soils is formulated by combining Aitchison's extension of the ...

The tensile strength of rocks

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1964
Abstract Results are given of tensile strength measurements made on rock using the diametrical compression of a disk with a central hole as a technique for determining tensile strength. Detailed quantitative information of the variation of the tensile strength with lamination orientation is given. It is shown that a relationship may exist between the

Model for predicting tensile strength of unsaturated cohesionless soils

Canadian geotechnical journal (Print), 2018
The influence of tensile strength on the behaviour of cohesionless soils is typically ignored in geotechnical engineering practice. However, the tensile cracking and subsequent failure characteristics of earth structures, such as dams, slopes and ...

The tensile strength of hardmetals

Journal of Materials Science, 1979
In conventional bend tests on hardmetal specimens with a rectangular cross-section the strength values exhibit a wide scatter as a result of fracture being initiated from pores and inclusions. A new bend test-piece geometry has been devised which subjects a relatively small volume of material to a high tensile stress and so reduces the probability of ...

Tensile Strength

2018
In this chapter, the probabilistic porous-solid model is used to simulate the tensile strength of unsaturated soils tested at different water contents. The strength of unsaturated soils can be split into two parts: one related to the net stress and the other to suction stress.

The Tensile Strength of Corneal Wounds

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1968
The tensile strength of central and peripheral penetrating corneal wounds was measured. The gain of strength of central wounds at different time intervals was recorded up to 100 days. Peripheral corneal wounds healed faster than central wounds. Permanent closure of eye lids had no effect on the gain of tensile strength, nor did the presence of a fornix-

Tensile strength of agglomerates

Powder Technology, 1975
Abstract Firstly, this paper gives a review of tensile strength of agglomerates; i.e. a discussion of the most important theoretical considerations, the various methods of measurement, a comparison of measuring techniques by experimental results and a brief look at deformation behaviour under unidirectional loading.
