Anisotropic Tensile Moduli


Test ID

M-010

Description

A universal testing machine (UTM) is used to determine and report tensile modulus of elasticity (Young's modulus) in two directions.  Straight-sided specimens are machined from plaques and loaded between the grips of the UTM.  An extensometer is attached to the sample.  Sample is stretched at a constant speed while load and strain data are recorded.  Five replicates are performed in each direction.

Options

Standards

  • ASTM D638
  • ISO 527-1

Data

Replicates

Number of times this test is repeated: 5

Samples

12 plaques (4 x 12in) [details]

Application

Used to develop transversely orthotropic material models of simple elastic behavior.
