The Combined Loading Compression (CLC) test method was standardized by ASTM in 2001, as ASTM D6641 1. During the past 10 years it has become the most-used compression test method for composite ...

Until the early 1970s, there was relatively little interest in measuring the compressive properties of composite materials. For design purposes, it was generally assumed that the compressive strength ...

The purpose of your engine is to compress fuel and air and then ignite it, creating heat energy that then makes mechanical motion. If your engine can't compress the air and fuel properly, the engine ...

For the past five years, the cost of test has prevailed as the hottest topic in test. During this period, automated test equipment (ATE) has made a dramatic move towards low-cost design for test (DFT) ...

The size of designs continues to grow and IC manufacturers are pushing for higher test quality, especially in mission-critical applications such as transportation and medicine. More advanced nodes ...

Compression in a diesel engine is essential for effective and efficient performance. And when compression is lacking, damage can result. That is why it’s imperative to know whether your engine’s ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. While browsing auto repair and maintenance tools at your local parts store, you've likely come across compression testers like the Orion Motor ...

Test compression sounds like magic. Read on to learn how this trick is done. Large, complex ICs are viable because their design meets test as well as functional requirements. Design for test (DFT) was ...

The trend in semiconductors leads to more IC test data volume, longer test times, and higher test costs. Embedded deterministic test (EDT) has continued to deliver more compression, which has been ...
