Testing techniques in dynamic biaxial loading

  • 1. Commission of the European Communities, Ispra (Italy). Joint Research Centre

Description

In order to investigate dynamic material properties under a biaxial state of stress, the following developments are presented: a cruciform specimen; a device activated by an electric motor for strain rates ranging between 10-4 and 10-1s-1; a hydropneumatic device for testing at strain rates ranging from 10-1 to 102s-1; and a high-load (5 MN) biaxial machine for testing large specimens at strain rates ranging from 10-4 to 103s-1.
