  2. Project 596 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_596

    Construction of the test site began on 1 April 1960, involving tens of thousands of laborers and prisoners under tough conditions. [5] It took four years to complete. Being the sole site for nuclear testing in China for years to come, the Lop Nur test site underwent extensive expansion and is by far the world's largest nuclear weapons test site ...

  3. Flexural strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexural_strength

    Flexural strength, also known as modulus of rupture, or bend strength, or transverse rupture strength is a material property, defined as the stress in a material just before it yields in a flexure test. [1] The transverse bending test is most frequently employed, in which a specimen having either a circular or rectangular cross-section is bent ...

  4. Four-point flexural test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-point_flexural_test

    The test method for conducting the test usually involves a specified test fixture on a universal testing machine. Details of the test preparation, conditioning, and conduct affect the test results. The sample is placed on two supporting pins a set distance apart and two loading pins placed at an equal distance around the center.

  5. Bending (metalworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_(metalworking)

    Joggling, [5] also known as joggle bending, is an offset bending process in which two opposite bends with equal angles are formed in a single action creating a small s-shape bend profile and an offset between the unbent face and the result flange that is typically less than 5 material thicknesses. [6]

  6. Forming limit diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forming_limit_diagram

    The mechanical test is performed by placing a circular mark on the work piece prior to deformation, and then measuring the post-deformation ellipse that is generated from the action on this circle. By repeating the mechanical test to generate a range of stress states, the formability limit diagram can be generated as a line at which failure is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending

    The structural element is assumed to be such that at least one of its dimensions is a small fraction, typically 1/10 or less, of the other two. [1] When the length is considerably longer than the width and the thickness, the element is called a beam .

  8. Structural engineering theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering_theory

    Strength depends upon material properties. The strength of a material depends on its capacity to withstand axial stress, shear stress, bending, and torsion.The strength of a material is measured in force per unit area (newtons per square millimetre or N/mm², or the equivalent megapascals or MPa in the SI system and often pounds per square inch psi in the United States Customary Units system).
