Abstract: | The strength of materials at high strain levels has been determined using the so-called Continuous-Bending-under-Tension (CBT) test. This is a modified tensile test where the specimen is subjected to repetitive bending at the same time. This test enables to create high levels of uniform strain. A wide variety of materials has been tested this way. The strength of the material after CBT testing has been measured in different ways: by secondary tensile tests, by interrupted CBT tests, and directly from the fracture in the CBT test. All methods yield similar results: the strength is largely unaffected by the cyclic pre-deformation and mainly depends on the overall increase in length. Only for multi-phase materials the strength shows a minor influence of CBT test conditions. The hardening follows the extrapolated hardening observed in a conventional tensile test, except for brass. This test method can potentially be used for measuring hardening curves at high strain levels. |
