In-Plane Torsion Testing of Sheet Metal
Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 1977In this paper, the ‘in-plane’ torsion testing of sheet metal is examined. The test itself was first proposed by Marciniak in order to ascertain the work hardening behaviour and fracture strain of sheet metals. In the original work, the analysis was based on the assumption that the material was rigid-work hardening.

In-plane shear test of thin panels
Experimental Mechanics, 1983Efficient application of thin-gage composite materials to helicopter fuselage structures necessitates that the materials be designed to operate at loads several times higher than initial buckling load. Methods are required to accurately measure and predict the response of thin-gage composites when subjected to these loads.

In-plane bending test of a piping elbow
Nuclear Engineering and Design, 1989Abstract This paper presents some experimental results of cyclic tests at room temperature in the elastic/inelastic regimes of an AISI 304 stainless steel elbow, which was subjected to in-plane closing and opening bending. The purpose of the work is the analysis of fittings subjected to a specific history of load/deflection in order to verify the ...

Crack growth resistance in plane-stress fracture testing
Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 1972Abstract New developments in crack growth resistance measurement using crack-line-wedge-loaded (CLWL) specimens include improved fixtures, and a double compliance technique for obtaining both load and effective crack length. The latter results in marked improvement in the accuracy of R curves for materials having large plastic zones.

Multifunctional fatigue testing setup for in-plane operating DEAs
Nondestructive Characterization and Monitoring of Advanced Materials, Aerospace, Civil Infrastructure, and Transportation IX, 2020Dielectric Elastomers (DEs) represent a class of soft electro-mechanical transducers, which is promising compared to conventional actuation technologies due to features such as lightweight, high energy efficiency, and low operational noise. Despite several prototypes have been proposed in the recent literature, only very few of them have been ...

In-Plane Experimental Testing of Timber-Concrete Composite Floor Diaphragms
Journal of Structural Engineering, 2010Recent advances in multistory timber building design have led to new structural systems that allow open floor plans with large spans between frames and/or walls. Timber-concrete composite (TCC) flooring can achieve the spans required but has the potential to be flexible under diaphragm actions, which can significantly alter the seismic response of a ...

Testing of In-Plane Shear Properties under Fatigue Loading
Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, 1995A two-dimensional finite element analysis is performed in order to analyze and improve the performance of the three-rail shear test specimen as prescribed by the ASTM Standard Guide for testing of in-plane shear properties of composite laminates [1].

Tests on plates loaded in in-plane compression
Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 1980Abstract The paper discusses the difficulties encountered in supporting the edges of plates when they are tested under in-plane compression, and describes a test rig in which this support is achieved using sets of discrete fingers. The results of tests on structural steel plates are given, in which the magnitudes of residual stresses and initial out ...
