AI Thread Summary
Deformation experiments on rock materials at 1000 degrees Fahrenheit and 300MPa confining pressure raise significant safety concerns in laboratory settings. The high pressure and temperature conditions make such tests potentially dangerous, necessitating careful planning and safety measures. Measuring deformations under these extreme conditions presents challenges, with conventional methods often involving small samples crushed between diamond anvils. Alternative techniques include using flash x-ray heating or firing pellets from ultra-high pressure air guns to induce deformation. Overall, while the feasibility of these tests is debated, they require specialized equipment and precautions.

Deformation experiments (say,compression etc) for rock materials at temperature of 1000 degress and under confining pressure of 300MPa in order to explore the material behaviour.

Is such kind of test dangerous in the lab?

300MPa?! Holy crud. The 1000°F is doable (heck, you'd probably be there at those pressures). Yeah. That's a bit on the dangerous side. What kind of scale are you thinking about in terms of the test samples? I would have to do some research to see how you would even measure the deformations under those conditions. I have honestly not seen anything in my experience that could replicate that in a lab. That definitely does not mean that it doesn't exist.
 
Not really, there is a lot of pressure but not a lot of stuff.
Usual way is to crush a very small (ug-mg) sample between two diamonds acting as anvils. You can either heat the whole sample chamber of flash x-ray heat the sample as you deform it.
The alternate fun way is to fire a pellet from an ultra-high pressure air gun into a sample.
 
How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...
Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'
Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...
I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
