This paper focuses on the constitutive behavior of the F82H ferritic/martensitic steels internationally investigated in the frame of the fusion material development program. Tensile tests were carried out in the temperature range (80-723 K) at different st ...
An assessment of the true stress-true strain relationship has been done by means of tensile and small ball punch tests on austenitic and tempered martensitic steel at room temperature. A finite element model was developed and validated to calculate the for ...
In an effort to better understand the plasticity of tempered martensitic steels, uniaxial tension and compression tests were carried out. The temperature dependence of both the yield stress and the post-yield stress behavior were compared, and it was shown ...
The numerical simulation of concrete dams subject to earthquake loading requires realistic material laws which take into account material properties as effected by seismic action. Experiments under simulated seismic action were performed to examine the eff ...
Plastic deformation under uniaxial longitudinal tension and compression is investigated for pure aluminum reinforced with a high volume fraction of parallel alumina fibers. The matrix sub-structure is also examined in transmission electron microscopy. The ...
Abstract—A common problem when using piezoceramic actuators for precise positioning is their hysteresis. Either external sensors such as capacitive or inductive probes, optical sensors or strain gauges are commonly used. The latter are the most favorable s ...
