What Parameters are Measured During Tensile Testing?
During tensile testing, several key parameters are measured:
Tensile Strength: The maximum stress that the tissue can withstand before failure. Elongation: The extent to which the tissue can stretch before breaking. Young's Modulus: A measure of the tissue's stiffness, calculated from the slope of the stress-strain curve. Strain: The deformation experienced by the tissue relative to its original length.
