Technical Note: Experimental techniques for Impression Creep and Small Punch testing
The test rig for Impression Creep testing was designed based on the application of resistance cable heating instead of a normal furnace. The thermal stability is crucial in Impression Creep testing because of small displacements, typically just some tens

A Renaissance in the Use of the Small Punch Testing Technique [PDF]
The underlying purpose of this paper is to evaluate whether the CEN CWA 15627 “Small Punch Test Method for Metallic Materials” first published in 2006 has indeed succeeded in providing a stimulus for a wider implementation of the small punch test technique in industrial applications throughout Europe and indeed worldwide.

Novel Fabrication Routes of Metallic Micromembranes for In Situ Mechanical Testing
A methodology to miniaturize mechanical tests of metal alloys based on membrane deformation was developed in this investigation. The buildup of this new path for miniaturization tests requires small amounts of material for testing.

Influence of microstructure on the ductile to brittle transition and fracture behaviour of HVOF NiCoCrAlY coatings determined via small punch tensile testing [PDF]
The development of new thermal barrier coatings (TBC’s) capable of increasing the efficiency of gas-powered turbines requires an understanding of how the tensile behavior and ductile to brittle transition temperature (DBTT) of MCrAlY bond coats are ...
