Abstract
Systems and methods for analyzing a viscoelastic property of a combinatorial library of materials including a plurality of full bridge devices operable for measuring a temperature-modulated elongation property of each of a plurality of combinatorial materials, wherein each of the plurality of full bridge devices comprises a plurality of strain gauges operable for measuring a temperature-modulated elongation property of each of the plurality of combinatorial materials, and wherein each of the plurality of combinatorial materials is disposed on a surface of the plurality of full bridge devices. The systems and methods also including an algorithm disposed within a computer, the algorithm operable for equating the temperature-modulated elongation property of the combinatorial materials with a thermal property of the combinatorial materials.
