  2. Traction (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_(mechanics)

    Traction can also refer to the maximum tractive force between a body and a surface, as limited by available friction; when this is the case, traction is often expressed as the ratio of the maximum tractive force to the normal force and is termed the coefficient of traction (similar to coefficient of friction).

  3. Tensile testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensile_testing

    Tensile testing on a coir composite. Specimen size is not to standard (Instron). Tensile testing, also known as tension testing, [1] is a fundamental materials science and engineering test in which a sample is subjected to a controlled tension until failure.

  4. Traction force microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_force_microscopy

    The spacing of independent displacement measurements varies with experimental setups, but is usually on the order of one micrometer. The traction patterns produced by cells frequently contain local maxima and minima that are smaller. Detection of these fine variations in local cellular traction with TFM remains challenging.

  6. Tractive effort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tractive_effort

    The term tractive effort is often qualified as starting tractive effort, continuous tractive effort and maximum tractive effort.These terms apply to different operating conditions, but are related by common mechanical factors: input torque to the driving wheels, the wheel diameter, coefficient of friction (μ) between the driving wheels and supporting surface, and the weight applied to the ...

  7. Ultimate tensile strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_tensile_strength

    The ultimate tensile strength of a material is an intensive property; therefore its value does not depend on the size of the test specimen.However, depending on the material, it may be dependent on other factors, such as the preparation of the specimen, the presence or otherwise of surface defects, and the temperature of the test environment and material.

  9. Gurney equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurney_equations

    The Gurney equations give a result that assumes the shell or sheet of material remains intact throughout a large portion of the explosive-gas expansion such that work can performed upon it. For some configurations and materials this is true; explosive welding, for example, uses a thin sheet of explosive to evenly accelerate flat plates of metal ...
