Just as one side of a seesaw rises while the other falls, in the realm of metallic materials, “strength” and “elongation” typically conflict with each other. However, a collaborative team from POSTECH ...

Creep and Stress Rupture testing evaluates the behavior of materials (plastics, metals, composites, and ceramics) under prolonged stress, and usually elevated temperatures to simulate conditions that ...

Many soft tissues in the body undergo significant motion or experience substantial pressure. Strong, elastic, bioresorbable implants could be useful in cartilage repair, vascular grafts, sinusitis ...

Elasticity is a property possessed by many solid materials, but the class of materials known as rubbers or elastomers possess a different property called high elasticity. This differs from ...
