Influence of the number of layers on the strength of beech laminated elements in the three-point flexural test, [PDF]
A chair is a piece of furniture whose elements are loaded with relatively high forces. The strength of these elements is vital for the safety of using this type of furniture. The research aims to test the chair material system made of beech wood.

Flexural Properties and Fracture Behavior of Nanoporous Alumina film by Three-Point Bending Test [PDF]
This study investigated the influence of porosity on the flexural property of a nanoporous alumina film. When the porosity of the alumina film increased, both bending strength and modulus declined. The results from the bending test revealed that the setting of the film during the bending test had significant influence on the flexural property. Fracture

Quantification of the flexural rigidity of endovascular surgical devices using three-point bending tests [PDF]
Abstract Endovascular surgical procedures require the navigation of catheters and wires through the vasculature to reach distal target sites. Quantitative frameworks for device selection hold the potential to improve the tracking of endovascular devices through vascular anatomy by personalizing the device flexural rigidity to an individual’s ...

DEPENDENCE OF GLARE DESTRUCTION MECHANISMS ON THE ELONGATION OF SAMPLES IN TESTS TO THREE-POINT FLEXURAL [PDF]
Tests on bending are one of the effective ways to experimentally determine the elasticity and shear moduli. An important task in the implementation of composite materials in aerospace structures is the development of methods for determining the physical and mechanical characteristics of materials. The paper presents of tests for three-point bending of

The mechanical strength of a plant stem (a load-bearing organ) helps the plant resist drooping, buckling and fracturing. We previously proposed a method for quickly evaluating the stiffness of an inflorescence stem in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana based on measuring its natural frequency in a free-vibration test.

This paper treats with the estimation on the flexural rigidity of adhesive-aided joints in steel (e.g. adhesive joint, weldbonded joint, etc.) based on experiments using three-point bending tests and calculations treating the adhesive joint as composite beams. As main conclusions for the adhesive joint, it is proved that in the case that thicknesses of

Empirical approach for the residual flexural tensile strength of steel fiber‐reinforced concrete based on notched three‐point bending tests [PDF]
AbstractWhen designing steel fiber‐reinforced concrete, for example, according to Model Code 2010, the residual flexural strength values must be specified as fundamental properties. It is often difficult to establish the relationship between residual flexural strength values and the required dosage of steel fibers depending on the type of steel fibers ...
