Product Description
A complete
guide to the uniaxial tensile test, the cornerstone test for determining the
mechanical properties of materials:
Learn ways to
predict material behavior through tensile testing.
Learn how to
test metals, alloys, composites, ceramics, and plastics to determine
strength, ductility and elastic/plastic deformation.
A must for
laboratory managers, technicians, materials and design engineers,
and
students involved with uniaxial tensile testing.
Tensile
Testing, Second Edition begins with an introduction and overview of the
test, with clear explanations of how materials properties are determined
from
test results. Subsequent sections illustrate how knowledge gained
through tensile
tests, such as tension properties to predict the behavior
(including strength,
ductility, elastic or plastic deformation, tensile and
yield strengths) have
resulted in improvements in materials
applications.
The Second Edition is completely revised and updated. It includes
expanded
coverage throughout the volume on a variety of topics, including
equipment,
testing for design, and testing at extreme temperatures and high
strain rates.
