Concrete Uniaxial Tensile Strength and Cylinder Splitting Test

Journal of Structural Engineering, 2003
The widely used concrete tensile strength test, the Brazilian cylinder splitting test, is analyzed using isoparametric nonlinear finite strip elements. The results of the numerical analysis suggest that the apparent tensile strength obtained from the splitting test underestimates the uniaxial tensile strength of concrete.

Characterization of high-temperature fatigue by the uniaxial tensile test

Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 1996
Abstract The fatigue process is a process during which the material strain-hardens under unchanged ultimate tensile strength, the fatigue deformation accumulates and the value of Young's modulus decreases. Creep process is a process during which the ultimate tensile strength decreases to the creep stress, the creep deformation accumulates and the ...

On the relevance of uniaxial tensile testing of urogynecological prostheses: the effect of displacement rate

International Urogynecology Journal, 2012
Uniaxial tensile testing is commonly used to calculate values of mechanical properties of urogynecological prostheses used in stress urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse surgery in women. Clinical behavior of these products has been linked to their mechanical properties, hence influencing the clinician's preference for one brand or another ...

Uniaxial compression tests and the validity of indirect tensile strength

Journal of Materials Science, 1990
So-called “indirect” tensile tests have been adopted for various reasons, especially ease of execution and supposed freedom from several notable interferences. The extensive literature reveals much disparity in the conditions for such tests, and no consensus conclusion concerning the optimum protocol or even the interpretation of the results.

Work hardening of the material at the uniaxial tensile test

2001
The description of work hardening relationship (σ stress -e strain) through mathematical function (e.g. formulae 2.1. or 2.7.) allows to define the course of homogeneous deformation in the range where constant and unchanging deformation mechanism is active.

A STUDY OF THE SECONDARY FLEXURE IN UNIAXIAL TENSILE TEST OF CONCRETE

1999
There are three difficulties associated with carrying out uniaxial tensile tests. These are prevention of an unstable fracture, a secondary flexure and duplicate cracks. To overcome these problems, a novel technique, which consists of applying notches and attaching an adjusting gear system, is examined in this paper.

Tensile characteristics and behavior of blood vessels from human brain in uniaxial tensile test

KSME International Journal, 2003
The rupture of blood vessels in the human brain results in serious pathological and medical problems. In particular, brain hemorrhage and hematomas resulting from impact to the head are a major cause of death. As such, investigating the tensile behavior and rupture of blood vessels in the brain is very important from a medical point of view.

Relationships between microstructure and behaviour in the uniaxial tensile test

Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 1974
The present understanding of the influence of structural variables on the tensile flow strength and work-hardening behaviour of cubic metals is outlined in terms of the separate effects of crystal structure and orientation, stacking-fault energy, grain size, solution hardening, and dispersed-particle strengthening.

Characterization of dynamic fatigue life by the uniaxial tensile test

Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 1995
Abstract The equations for fatigue potential energy and the lethargy coefficient are derived from the dynamic fatigue life equation, whilst the static fatigue equation is used in the uniaxial tensile test for a damage accumulation process. Microstructural processes during high-cycle fatigue are investigated according to plastic strain-hardening ...

Development of a uniaxial ice tensile specimen for low temperature testing

Cold Regions Science and Technology, 1984
Abstract The objective of this research was to develop uniaxial ice tensile specimens that could be tested at temperatures ranging from 255 K down to 150 K. Standard tensile specimens were produced using a mold constructed from a room temperature vulcanizing rubber which was equipped with aluminium end mounts.
