... cycle in the production of car bodies. Yield and ultimate tensile strengths, ductility including uniform and total elongation and area reduction, thermal softening effect at high strain rate, and strain rate sensitivity of stress were determined and discussed in all cases. It was found that the Voce...

... free volume for all the adhesives remains constant as moisture is absorbed but plasticization takes place at high temperature and relative humidity, evidenced by the increased elongation and yield observed by strain values and scanning electron microscope. Exposure at 50 ° C in air causes the adhesives...

... more elongated that enhances their fragmentation, and (iii) large hydrostatic stresses develop that improve the stability of the deformation process for difficult-to-work materials. The results obtained concerning the deformation field are also applicable in the machining process for the plastic...

.... Engineering stress versus strain diagrams for both mentioned temperatures, curves representing the effect of temperature on specimen elongation, and short-time creep curves are given. Notch impact energy test was also carried out. Taking into consideration the service life of the final product...

... materials confirmed its good predictive capability. The model was further used to formulate simple relations between true uniform strain and the constitutive parameters that allow reliable prediction of the uniform elongation. There exists a growing demand for aluminum sheet with a favorable combination...

... with the ability for pseudoelastic elongations of up to 41% in reversible axial strain which is well beyond the yield strain of the approximately 0.25% of bulk Cu and the recoverable strains on the order of 8% of most bulk shape memory materials. The existence of the pseudoelasticity observed in the single...

...F. McBagonluri; E. Akpan; C. Mercer; W. Shen; W. O. Soboyejo Surface and subsurface crack nucleation and growth mechanisms are elucidated for equiaxed (microstructure 1), elongated (microstructure 2), and colony (microstructure 3) microstructures of Ti6242. Prominent cleavage facets, indicative...

... analysis program. Since the parameters required to describe the hardening model such as latent hardening ratios are difficult to obtain experimentally, a parametric study was conducted to estimate values for these parameters that enable the prediction of the experimentally observed load versus elongation...
