    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Covers a procedure known as the ballistic pendulum (Elmendorf) procedure for determining the tear force of textile fabrics. Covers the measuring of the tear force needed for propagation of a single-rip tear of specified length from a cut in a fabric when a sudden force is applied.
