Rubber parts such as silicone diaphragms, septums, seals, valves, tubing, and balloons are critical components in many of today’s medical devices. FEA can be an excellent tool for design engineers to ...
The offset shear strength is the shear stress endured by a material at the intersection of the shear stress versus the engineering shear strain curve, with a line parallel to a defined modulus and ...
BUCHEN, Germany—MonTech is expanding rubber process analyzer testing with rotational steady shear technology, available to its global customer base. The RPA developer's D-RPA 3000 now is available ...
President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. The test fixtures and specimens used for the three methods are compared in Fig. 1, at left. All three apply an asymmetrical four-point bend loading to the ...
When it comes to rubber products, designs, materials, and manufacturing processes are still largely trial and error. CFD or FEA usually comes into play only after ...
This webinar will be an overview of dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and fatigue testing methods and will give examples of non-tire applications (including silicone applications) where these test ...
