The Biomechanics and Medical Devices Laboratory at The University of Texas at Tyler has the capability to perform and analyze the results of biomechanical experiments including tensile and compression tests, 3 and 4 point bending tests, cantilevered bending, cyclic fatigue tests, multiaxial testing, ASTM and other standards based testing, and non-standard or custom testing, including testing in saline environments, at body temperature, inclusion of 2d strain field measurements with digital image correlation, and other advanced techniques. Additional, through our network of partners, we can perform planar biaxial testing, torsional testing, wear testing, and other complex tests.
