Cryogenic Tensile Tester
Cryogenic Tensile Tester
Our team is working on a user-friendly, inexpensive, and accurate way to understand how materials behave at temperatures as low as 100K (-280°F). We’re interested in their tensile properties—how they respond to being stretched. We started with a machine that was not fully functional. Our project focuses on improving the data acquisition systems and the User Interface.
