In this paper, some interesting, experimentally determined actualities referring to the 50CrMo4 steel are presented. That way, the mechanical properties of the material are derived from uniaxial tensile tests at lowered and elevated temperatures. 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 of the mentioned steel widely used in engine and machine technology, all of the mentioned data may be relevant during design and manufacturing procedure.

Calendered nonwovens, formed by polymeric fibres, are three-phase heterogeneous materials, comprising a fibrous matrix, bond-areas and interface regions. As a result, two main factors of anisotropy can be identified. The first one is ascribable to a random fibrous microstructure, with the second one related to orientation of a bond pattern. This paper focuses on the first type of anisotropy in thin and thick nonwovens under uniaxial tensile loading. Individual and combined effects of anisotropy and strain rate were studied by conducting uniaxial tensile tests in various loading directions (0°, 30°, 45°, 60° and 90° with regard to the main fabric’s direction) and strain rate (0.01, 0.1 and 0.5 s−1). Fabrics exhibited an initial linear elastic response, followed by nonlinear strain hardening up to necking and final softening. The studied allowed assessment of the extent the effects of loading direction (anisotropy), planar density and strain rate on the mechanical response of the calendered fabrics. The evidence supported the conclusion that anisotropy is the most crucial factor, also delineating the balance between the fabric’s load-bearing capacity and extension level along various directions. The strain rate produced a marked effect on the fibre’s response, with increased stress at higher strain rate while this effect in the fabric was small. The results demonstrated the differences of the mechanical behaviour of fabrics from that of their constituent fibres.

Abstract The paper presents the results of two butt welded joints by conventional method. The welding process was performed using a variety of linear welding energy. The studies included experimental and computational part. In experimental studies determined the distribution of hardness and mechanical properties of the individual analyzed sections of welded joints. The data obtained were intended to determine the extent of zones in the welded joints that have certain strength characteristics. Also conducted uniaxial tensile tests of welded joints with the registration of displacement fields on the surface of specimens by means of Aramis video-system what the final result are images of strain fields map on the surface of welded joints. The resulting strain values were compared with the results of numerical computations FEM.

This work consists of determining the plastic strain value undergone by a material during a forming process using the instrumented indentation technique (IIT). A deep drawing steel DC01 is characterized using tensile, shear and indentation tests. The plastic strain value undergone by this steel during uniaxial tensile tests is determined by indentation. The results show that, the identification from IIT doesn’t lead to an accurate value of the plastic strain if the assumption that the hardening law follows Hollomon law is used. By using a F.E. method, it is shown that using a Voce hardening law improves significantly the identification of the hardening law of a pre-deformed material. Using this type of hardening law coupled to a methodology based on the IIT leads to an accurate determination of the hardening law of a pre-deformed material. Consequently, this will allow determining the plastic strain value and the springback elastic strain value of a material after a mechanical forming operation.

The purpose of the paper is the estimation of the polyvinyl chloride – polyester-coated fabric (Precontraint 1202 S2) mechanical properties under uniaxial tensile tests as well as short- and long-time creep tests. The uniaxial tests are the basis of non-linear elastic description while the creep tests are used for the evaluation of the stiffness parameters in time and for the identification of the standard viscoelastic model. The paper also includes a short survey of literature concerning the coated woven fabric description.

The objective of this study was to develop a thermo-mechanical strategy to create a radial elasticity gradient in a β metastable Ti-Nb-Zr alloy, and to characterize it in terms of microstructural and mechanical properties. A first investigation was conducted on thin samples of Ti-20Nb-6Zr (at.%) submitted to various thermo-mechanical treatments. Microstructure-properties relationships and elastic variability of this alloy were determined performing uniaxial tensile tests, X-ray diffraction and scanning and transmission electron microscopies. Based on these preliminary results, mechanical deformation was identified as a potential way to lower the elastic modulus of the alloy. In order to create elastically graded pieces, shot-peening was therefore carried out on thicker samples to engender surface deformation. In this second part of the work, local mechanical properties were evaluated by instrumented micro-indentation. Experimental observations demonstrated that shot-peening enabled to locally induce martensitic transformation on surface, and a decrease in indentation elastic modulus from 85 to 65 GPa over 400 μm was highlighted. Surface deformation proved to be an efficient way of creating an elasticity gradient in β metastable titanium alloys. This combination of material and process could be suitable to produce dental implants with mechanically enhanced biocompatibility.

Tests on miniature samples are increasingly used for the determination of mechanical properties of materials available in small volumes (non-destructive or semi-destructive approach). Small punch testing at constant deflection rate (SPT-CDR) of selected magnesium alloys and composites was performed at room temperature. Mechanical properties (yield strength, ultimate strength) were evaluated from SPT and correlated with results of uniaxial tensile tests (UTT). SPT characteristics were converted to uniaxial tensile properties by empirical formulas available in the literature. New formulas more appropriate for magnesium alloys were suggested.

Reinforced concrete strategic structures for military purposes are often established in coastalor offshore areas, widely subjected to chemical attacks, mainly due to an aggressive saline and acidenvironments. Porosity of cementitious conglomerates favour penetration of chlorides, which tend tocorrode the internal metallic rebar. The reinforcement of structures with fibrous composite materialsis a viable solution to restore the initial requirements of the building, especially when it exerts defence purposes. Among synthetic fibres, polyphenylenebenzobisoxazole (PBO) is an organic fibre based on linked aromatic structures with high elastic modulus and tensile strength and highly dissipative attitudes. In this work, the assessment of durability of continuous fibrereinforced cementitious mortar (FRCM) composites is carried out comparing the mechanical performance of laminates subjected to uniaxial tensile tests. It is found that PBOFRCM presents high resistance against aggressive environments and specifically preserve its mechanical strength in the presence of saltwater, where other reinforcing materials undergo to a dramatic degradation process.
