Discover the most common construction material failures, their causes, and how to prevent them through proper testing and ...

Failure theories are used to predict when a material will fail due to static loading. They do this by comparing the stress state at a point with material properties that can be easily determined from ...

A surface forces apparatus and various optical visualization techniques were used to study the transition mechanisms between liquid-like snapping and solid-like failure at nano- and microscales.

Peridynamic (PD) theory is used to investigate the dynamic responses of electronic packages subjected to impact loading arising from drop-shock. The capability of the PD theory to predict failure is ...

Polyimide (PI) films are essential in spacecraft electronics due to their exceptional thermal stability, electrical insulation, and mechanical properties. However, their long-term reliability under ...

Detection and diagnosis of material degradation are of a complex and challenging task since it is presently hand-operated by a human. Therefore, it leads to misinterpretation and avoids correct ...

Explore how forensic material testing is used to identify construction failures, prevent risk, and improve long-term structural integrity.

We came across a bullish thesis on Eagle Materials Inc. on Special Situation Investing’s Substack by Six Bravo. In this article, we will summarize the bull’s thesis on EXP. Eagle Materials Inc ...

Eagle Materials (EXP) presents a compelling investment opportunity in an overlooked yet essential industry—cement. Inspired by a cascade of coincidental references, including Vaclav Smil’s emphasis on ...

AIR India crash investigators believe an emergency power system kicked in – raising questions about whether the engines were working properly. A raft of analysts now agree that a small turbin… ...

Speculations surrounding the AI 171 crash intensify, with a focus on potential electrical system failure in the Boeing 787, which uses electrical systems instead of conventional ones. Pilots are ...
