Shear
Shear testing is a very popular and valuable test method applicable to food texture analysis.
This method applies slicing or 'shearing' to the product, which replicates the action of the front incisors when food is introduced into the mouth.

texture, compression
Compression is one of the most common texture tests, especially for food products. Typically a sample is placed on a flat surface and an upper compression platen is lowered into the sample.

T-peel
T-peel test procedures are commonly used to measure peel strength for flexible laminates.In this test, the entire load applied is transmitted to the bond. This type of peel thus tends to provide the lowest values of any peel test

Compressive burst
The integrity of a fluid or gas-filled container can be tested in terms of its propensity to burst.
This may involve a failure in the material by splitting, or perhaps a seal/seam gives way or even the closure can break loose.
