- Description
- The evaluation of a solid specimen under conditions of tensile or compressive loads can provide basic mechanical properties of the material. The former condition, the tensile test, is maybe the most common type of mechanical test in Materials Science. During this examination the ends of a sample of particular dimensions are fixed in the instrument and the sample then subjected to a uniaxial load that makes it elongate until it fails. Some of the data obtained this way are tensile strength, area reduction and elongation. The derived properties that can be obtained include Young modulus, Yield strength, Poisson ™s ratio and and other material data such as Strain - hardening behavior. Compressive tests are conducted under similar conditions although the load is applied inward, crushing the specimen, shortening its dimension and pushing its parts together, usually a prevalent way to test brittle materials such as ceramics. For our research, a Bench Top Single Column Material Test Instrument could be used both in tensile and compressive modes. On an exemplary embodiment the tensile-compressive loads will be applied while the sample electrical properties will be measured by an independent system. Please see the attached RFQ for requirements. Please send question(s) and quote to Robert B Gallagher at rbgallag@nps.edu
