A New Multiaxial Specimen for Determining the Dynamic Properties of Adhesive Joints

Janin, A.; Constantinescu, A.; Weisz-Patrault, D.; Neviere, R.; Stackler, M.; Albouy, W.

2018 Experimental Mechanics

doi:10.1007/s11340-018-0402-7

Adhesive joints are increasingly employed for bonding critical parts of industrial structures. Therefore, adhesive joints become a key element in design, and their mechanical characterization is of the utmost importance. Significant advancement has been realized for their characterization under...

Residual Stress Measurement in Composite Laminates Using Incremental Hole-Drilling with Power Series

Smit, T.; Reid, R.

2018 Experimental Mechanics

doi:10.1007/s11340-018-0403-6

Current methods for incremental hole-drilling in composite laminates have not been successfully applied in laminates of arbitrary construction or where significant variation of residual stress exists within a single ply. This work presents a method to overcome these limitations. Series expansion...

Introducing Heterogeneity into the Micro-Scratch Test Fracture Toughness Relation for Brittle Particle Composites

Al Wakeel, S.; Hubler, M.

2018 Experimental Mechanics

doi:10.1007/s11340-018-0408-1

Existing analysis methods of scratch test data are limited in their application to composite materials since they are built on the assumption of homogeneous material. In this study, the heterogeneity of the composite material is considered for analysis of scratch data on a resin and glass bead...

Evaluation of Conformal and Non-Conformal Contact Parameters Using Digital Photoelasticity

Hariprasad, M.; Ramesh, K.; Prabhune, B.

2018 Experimental Mechanics

doi:10.1007/s11340-018-0411-6

Experimental studies to exploit photoelastic data of conformal geometries to extract contact parameters are non-existent because closed-form stress field equations were not available until recently. In this paper, the explicit equations recently reported in the literature for a flat punch with...

Validation of Registration Techniques Applied to XRD Signals for Stress Evaluations in Titanium Alloys

Voillot, B.; Lebrun, J.-L.; Billardon, R.; Hild, F.

2018 Experimental Mechanics

doi:10.1007/s11340-018-0391-6

To estimate stresses near specimen surfaces, X-ray diffraction (XRD) is applied to titanium alloys. Some of these alloys are difficult to study since they are composed of various phases of different proportions, shapes and scales. For millimetric probed volumes, such multi-phase microstructures...

Adhesion Energy of C. elegans

Keller, M.W.; Mailler, R.; Adams, K.

2018 Experimental Mechanics

doi:10.1007/s11340-018-0407-2

The surface adhesion between C. elegans and the agar plates on which they are commonly grown has yet to be accurately quantified. C. elegans is a scientifically important species of nematode whose simple structure allowed the first mapping of the complete nervous system in a multicellular...

Investigation of the Tensile Behavior of Recycled Asphalts in the Small-Strain Domain with the Grid Method

Teguedy, M.C.; Blaysat, B.; Toussaint, E.; Moreira, S.; Liandrat, S.; GréDiac, M.

2018 Experimental Mechanics

doi:10.1007/s11340-018-0412-5

Under mechanical loading, asphalt mixtures exhibit in their bulk heterogeneous strain fields characterized by localized gradients concentrated within the binder. Measuring such fields constitutes a challenge for the full-field measurement methods currently used in the experimental mechanics...

The Influence of Long-Term Storage on the Functional Properties of Shape Memory Alloys

Ostropiko, E.; Razov, A.

2018 Experimental Mechanics

doi:10.1007/s11340-018-0410-7

The influence of long-term storage of TiNi-based and CuZnAl alloys on their functional properties was investigated. It was established that during 30 years’ storage of TiNiFe thermomechanical couplings, the stresses in them practically did not decrease. Couplings with CuZnAl alloy sleeves during...

A New Technique for Characterization of Low Impedance Materials at Acoustic Frequencies

Nantasetphong, W.; Jia, Z.; Hasan, M.A.; Amirkhizi, A.V.; Nemat-Nasser, S.

2018 Experimental Mechanics

doi:10.1007/s11340-018-0413-4

Measuring the mechanical properties of low impedance rubbery polymers at acoustic frequencies is a challenging problem due to the small signal amplitudes, relatively high loss, and the long wavelength of stress waves. One such material is solid polyurea (PU), an elastomeric copolymer, which has...

Numerical and Experimental Studies of a Conical Striker Application for the Achievement of a True and Nominal Constant Strain Rate in SHPB Tests

Panowicz, R.; Janiszewski, J.; Kochanowski, K.

2018 Experimental Mechanics

doi:10.1007/s11340-018-0404-5

The problem of ensuring both nominal and true constant strain rate in the split Hopkinson pressure bar experiment was considered through the application of the conical striker for 316 L steel specimen. The experimentally confirmed results from numerical analyses indicate that the application of a...
