77.040.10 - Mechanical testing of metals

This document specifies a method for determining the tensile strain hardening exponent n of flat
products (sheet and strip) made of metallic materials.
The method is valid only for that part of the stress-strain curve in the plastic range where the curve is
continuous and monotonic (see 8.4).
In the case of materials with a serrated stress-strain curve in the work hardening range (materials
which show the Portevin-Le Chatelier effect, e.g. AlMg-alloys), the automatic determination (linear

This document specifies a procedure for developing forming-limit diagrams and forming-limit curves for metal sheets and strips of thicknesses from 0,3 mm to 4 mm.

This document specifies a method for determining the ability of metallic materials to undergo plastic deformation in bending. This document applies to test pieces taken from metallic products, as specified in the relevant product standard. It is not applicable to certain materials or products, for example tubes in full section or welded joints, for which other standards exist.

This document specifies methods for high speed compression testing, at room temperature, of porous and cellular metals having a porosity of 50 % or more. The speed range applicable to this test method is 0,1 m/s to 100 m/s (or 1 s−1 to 103 s−1 in terms of the initial strain rate when the specimen height is 100 mm).

EN-ISO 10113 specifies a method for determining the plastic strain ratio of flat products (sheet and strip) made of metallic materials.

EN-ISO 6892-1 specifies the method for tensile testing of metallic materials and defines the mechanical properties which can be determined at room temperature.

This document specifies a test method for the determination of brittle crack arrest toughness. It is applicable to ferritic steel base metals exhibiting ductile to brittle transition behaviour. Applicable materials are rolled steel plates. It is intended for materials with a tensile strength of 950 MPa or less and a test piece thickness of 200 mm or less. The range of arrest temperatures is between −196 °C and +100 °C. This document can be applied to flat rolled steel plates but not to flattened...view more

This document specifies methods of direct and indirect verification of testing machines used for
determining Brinell hardness in accordance with ISO 6506-1 and also specifies when these two types of
verification have to be performed.
The direct verification involves checking that individual machine performance parameters fall within
specified limits whereas the indirect verification utilizes hardness measurements of reference blocks,
calibrated in accordance with ISO 6506-3, to check the ma...view more

This part of IEC 61788 specifies the test method and procedures for testing tensile mechanical
properties of REBCO superconductive composite tapes at room temperature. This test is used
to measure the modulus of elasticity and 0,2 % proof strength. The values for elastic limit,
fracture strength and percentage elongation after fracture serve only as a reference. This
document applies to samples having a rectangular cross-section with an area of 0,12 mm2 to
6,0 mm2 (corresponding to the tape...view more

This document specifies the methods for
a) uninterrupted creep tests with continuous monitoring of extension,
b) interrupted creep tests with periodic measurement of elongation,
c) stress rupture tests where normally only the time to fracture is measured,
d) a test to verify that a predetermined time can be exceeded under a given force, with the elongation
or extension not necessarily being reported.
NOTE A creep test can be continued until fracture has occurred or it can be stopped before...view more
