  2. Standard penetration test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_penetration_test

    The standard penetration test (SPT) is an in-situ dynamic penetration test designed to provide information on the geotechnical engineering properties of soil. This test is the most frequently used subsurface exploration drilling test performed worldwide. The test procedure is described in ISO 22476-3, ASTM D1586 [1] and Australian Standards AS ...

  3. Chemical force microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_force_microscopy

    As stated earlier, the force resolution of CFM does allow one to probe individual bonds of even the weakest variety, but tip curvature typically prevents this. Using Eq 2, a radius of curvature ⁠ ⁠ < 10 nm has been determined as the requirement to conduct tensile testing of individual linear moieties. [2]

  4. Geotechnical investigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geotechnical_investigation

    A USBR soil scientist advances a Giddings Probe direct push soil sampler.. Geotechnical investigations are performed by geotechnical engineers or engineering geologists to obtain information on the physical properties of soil earthworks and foundations for proposed structures and for repair of distress to earthworks and structures caused by subsurface conditions; this type of investigation is ...

  5. Anorectal manometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anorectal_manometry

    [1] [2] The test is performed by inserting a catheter, that contains a probe embedded with pressure sensors, through the anus and into the rectum. [3] Patients may be asked to perform certain maneuvers, such as coughing or attempting to defecate, to assess for pressure changes. [3] Anorectal manometry is a safe [4] and low risk [3] procedure.

  6. Time-of-flight diffraction ultrasonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-of-flight_diffraction...

    The defect or discontinuity creates a characteristic parabolic indication, due to the apparent change in depth as the probes travel. Manually-guided TOFD probes. Time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD) method of ultrasonic testing is a sensitive and accurate method for the nondestructive testing of welds for defects.

  7. Cone penetration test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone_penetration_test

    The cone penetration or cone penetrometer test (CPT) is a method used to determine the geotechnical engineering properties of soils and delineating soil stratigraphy. It was initially developed in the 1950s at the Dutch Laboratory for Soil Mechanics in Delft to investigate soft soils. Based on this history it has also been called the "Dutch ...

  8. Test probe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_probe

    A test probe is a physical device used to connect electronic test equipment to a device under test (DUT). Test probes range from very simple, robust devices to complex probes that are sophisticated, expensive, and fragile. Specific types include test prods, oscilloscope probes and current probes. A test probe is often supplied as a test lead ...

  9. Non-contact wafer testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-contact_wafer_testing

    These methods use tiny RF antennae (similar to RFID tags, but on a much smaller scale) to replace both the mechanical probes and the metal probe pads. If the antennae on the probe card and IC are properly aligned, then a transmitter on the probe card can send data wirelessly to the receiver on the IC via RF communication.
