In this study, we tried to establish the method of evaluating the tensile properties of the ring specimen of Arsene which have gauge length. In this result, we verified the availability of central piece. We made ring specimens and devices such as central piece, pins, and clevises. A proper tensile speed was determined by pre-test. The result of main test was calibrated and compared with the result of FEM. To obtain the tensile properties from the ring test result, we observed two relationships: one is strain-displacement and the other is load ratio-displacement. The tensile properties could be evaluated by using these relationships.

Plane strain punch stretching test(PSST) was performed for various automotive steel sheets. To clarify the effect of tensile properties on plane strain stretchability, the limiting punch height(LPH) values were obtained in plane strain punch stretching test and related to the tensile properties of the materials. The results show that the total elongation El and work hardening exponent n compared to other parameters obtained from tensile test well correlate with the LPH value. In comparision with the Erichsen test and LDH test the PSST can be statistically used as an alternative in assessing the stamping formability of automotive steel sheets with the advantages of good reproducibility and easy testing method.

A newly developed Advanced Indentation System (AIS), which is a portable and nondestructive system for evaluating tensile properties, was used to measure mechanical behavior of materials used under high temperature and pressure conditions. This test measures indentation load-depth curve during indentation and analyzes the mechanical properties related to deformation and fracture. Aging effects of Cr-Mo and Cr-Mo-V steel at high temperature were simulated. Tensile properties including yield strength and tensile strength at various temperature are obtained from the test. For all test materials and conditions, the AIS-derived results were in good agreement with those from conventional standard test method. Examples of the test results ate given and potential applications of the AIS to assess the integrity of aging structures are briefly discussed.

In this study, the tensile properties of single and hybrid fiber reinforced cement composite according to strain rate was evaluated. Experimental results, in the strain rate 10^-6/s, fiber reinforced cement composite showed improved of tensile strength and decrease of strain at peak stress as SSF volume content increased. In the strain rate 101/s, the single and hybrid reinforced cement composite's tensile properties are improved, because of the improved bond strength between the fiber and matrix. And hybrid fiber reinforced cement composite showed high energy absorption capacity, because the SSF prevented the cracking and fracture of the surrounding matrix when during the HSF pull-out.

This paper presents a study of the tensile behavior of carbon and glass fiber reinforced epoxy hybrid laminates manufactured by vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM). The objective of this study was to develop and characterize carbon fiber reinforced plastic hybrid composite material that is low cost and light-weight and that possesses adequate strength and stiffness. The effect of position and content of the glass fabric layer on the tensile properties of the hybrid laminates was examined. The strength and stiffness of the hybrid laminates showed a steady decrease with an increase of the glass fabric content this decrease was almost linear. Fracture strain of these laminates showed a slight increasing trend when glass fabric content was increased up to 3 layers, but at a glass fabric content > 3 layers the strain was almost constant. When glass fabric layers were at both outer surfaces, the hybrid laminate exhibited a slightly higher tensile strength and elastic modulus due to the small amount of glass yarn pull-out.

Wool and alpaca fibers were coated with polypyrrole by vapor-phase polymerisation method. The changes in frictional and tensile properties of the single fibers upon coating with the conductive polymer are presented. Coating a thin layer of polypyrrole on the alpaca and wool fibers results in a significant reduction in the fiber coefficient of friction, as the conducting polymer layer smooths the protruding edges of the fiber scales. It also reduces the directional friction effect of the fibers. Depending on the type of fiber, the coating may slightly enhance the tensile properties of the coated fibers.

Hydroforming is a cost-effective way of shaping malleable metals such as steel into lightweight, structurally stiff and strong pieces. With the increased use of the hydroformed components in automotive and aerospace industries, it is important to know the variations of the mechanical properties in the hydroforming process far the safe and durable design purposes. The principal goal of this paper is to suggest a procedure to evaluate the variations of tensile and fatigue properties before and after a hydroforming process. A miniature specimen, which is 0.2 mm thick and 2.3 mm wide, is devised and tested to measure local mechanical properties. The effects of specimen size, defects, surface roughness, and hydroforming on the tensile and fatigue behaviors are discussed.

This study focused on the effect of autonomic microcapsules on the mechanical properties of structural material. Several types of microcapsules with healing agents were manufactured by varying agitation speed of high speed stirrer. The size distribution of microcapsules was measured by a particle size analzer. The epoxy specimens embedded with microcapsules were manufactured and the degree of cure of such epoxy specimen was measured by a differential scanning calorimetry. The tensile modulus and tensile strength in epoxy specimens embedded with microcapsules were evaluated in order to investigate the effects of microcapsules on mechanical properties of structural materials. The configuration of microcapsules and morphology of fracture surfaces for the epoxy specimen were examined by an optical microcope and a scanning electron microscope. According to the results, tensile strength of the epoxy specimen embedded with microcapsules was indicated a little reduction, but tensile modulus was not much affected on microcapsules.

It is well known that the powder injection molding(PIM) process can overcome the shape limitations of traditional powder compaction, the costs of machining, the productivity limits of isostatic pressing and slip casting, and the defect and tolerance limitations of conventional casting. Increasing demands from industry for not only the dimensional accuracy nut mechanical strength in PIMed parts have had much effort focused on the investigation of mechanical properties of mechanical strength in PIMed parts have had much effort focused on the investigation of mechanical properties of sintered parts formed with high-strength metallic powders. The 17_4 PH $10\mu{m}$ were injection-molded into flat tensile specimens. Sintering of the compacts was carried out at the various temperatures ranging from 900 to $1350^{\circ}C$. Sintering behavior of the compacts and tensile properties of sintered specimens were investigated.

[ $FerroTitanit^{(R)}$ ] is an extremely high alloyed PM material containing about 20 to 35 wt.% titanium based carbides. Such materials are designed to achieve a high wear resistance, but the high volume fraction of hard phases causes a comparable low ductility in case of tensile loading. In the present study the mechanical properties of different Ferro-Titanit grades (variations in chemical composition and in heat treatment) were investigated by means of tensile tests. The mechanical properties and the fracture behaviour will be related to the chemical composition, the heat treatment and the microstructure.
