Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The aluminium platform (47.5 cm × 25 cm) included a 3D-printed plastic test surface (18 cm × 8 cm), to which the ATI Nano 17-E force transducer (SI-50-0.5 Calibration, ATI Industrial Automation, USA) was attached for measuring shear force. (A) The testing platform set at an incline (45°). (B) The testing platform set in a vertical orientation (90°).
