High Speed Tensile Stress-Strain
Test ID
M-232
Description
A universal testing machine (UTM) is used. The test specimen is loaded between the grips of the UTM. An extensometer is used to measure strain during the test. The specimen is stretched at a constant speed while load and strain are recorded. The speed of testing is specified by the relevant standard, or client request. Tensile tests are performed at speeds between 0.0083 m/s and 1 m/s, corresponding to strain rates of 0.83-100 /s. Strain rates are calculated using nominal high-speed specimen gauge length. For higher crosshead speeds or strain rates, consult DatapointLabs test M-235.

Engineering Tensile Stress-Strain Curves, Offset Yield Strain in Tension, Offset Yield Stress in Tension, Tensile Modulus, Tensile Strain at Yield, Tensile Strength at Yield, True Tensile Stress-Strain Curves. This data appears in Matereality as Tensile Properties.
Replicates
Number of times this test is repeated: 5
Samples
10 high speed tensile bars [details]
Application
This test provides high strain rate stress-strain data for the simulation of impact situations. It is usually combined with stress-strain data spanning several decades of strain rates to create a rate dependant model of the material.
