urgent help needed: compression testing
hi guys, I have some homework problems about compression testing, please kindly help me out, I need to complete them by tomorrow but I have struggled for days...
1. what are the possible fixtures for compression testing?
--- contrast them with those used for the tensile test.
---List all the elements of design needed for a fixture of this type (e.g., alignment, surface finish & etc.)
2. What are the difficulties in determining both elastic properties and the flow curve for both test types?
3. Review the methods that could be used to determine the flow properties considering the possible sources of error considering and ranking each method in terms of accuracy. This review should include specific examples and sources of error.
I do understand the term "flow properties" -- does it mean "stress vs. strain curve"?
These problems confused me for the whole weekend... if you know answer to any of them, please kindly share with me-... no need to address all these questions in a time
many thanks...
