Design and manufacture of a low-cost 3D-printed laboratory device to measure the hyperelastic properties of polymeric films with small form factor suitable for medical devices

Hyperelastic materials are extensively incorporated in medical implants and microelectromechanical systems due to their large, elastic, recoverable strains. However, their mechanical properties are sensitive to processing parameters that may lead to inconsistent characterization. Various test setups...
