High Speed Compressibility of Foams and Elastomers
Test ID
M-231
Description
A Dynatup 8250 drop tower is used to determine and report a compressive stress/strain curve. The test is performed at a constant velocity. Load and corresponding specimen deflection are recorded. Five replicates are performed.
Options
Standards
- ASTM D575
- ISO 604
Data
Compressive Modulus, Compressive Ultimate Strength, Engineering Compressive Stress-Strain Curves, Offset Yield Strain in Compression, Offset Yield Stress in Compression, Strain at Ultimate, True Compressive Stress-Strain Curves. This data appears in Matereality as Compressive Properties.
Replicates
Number of times this test is repeated: 5
Samples
10 prisms [details]
Application
This test provides high strain rate stress-strain data which can be used in a foam modeling for the simulation of impact situations.
