断裂力学测试服务

Manufactured materials are not immune to experiencing cracks, flaws, or defects. Our 材料测试 experts measure the fracture mechanics of both nonferrous and high-strength ferrous materials to provide manufacturers with valuable insight into the allowable stress levels and overall durability of their product.

CTOD Testing

裂纹尖端张开位移, or CTOD, is a measure of the crack length or physical opening of the fatigue crack tip at the point of failure. CTOD testing measures the toughness of materials that tear before failure and provides a single value at the first sign of instability. CTOD testing typically results in one of three types of failure: 

CTOD testing typically results in one of three types of failure: 
  1. The sample fails in a brittle manner in the elastic region or shortly after the onset of deformation.
  2. The sample fails in a brittle manner after stable tearing has started and the load is still increasing at the time of fracture.
  3. Near failure where the sample can no longer hold the load applied and unstable tearing occurs.

检测K1C值

 KIC测试(有时称为KIC), or K1C) is used to determine the brittle fracture toughness of metallic materials. 通常与ASTM E399相关, 线弹性平面应变断裂韧性试验, or KIc value, is performed across a range of temperatures to determine the design, 生活的计算, 裂纹扩展, 或剩余寿命计算. A valid KIC test ensures that the test specimen fractures under nominally linear elastic conditions.

测试J1C和JR值

J-based testing measures the energy released during crack extension. This standardized test method is used to evaluate materials with high toughness and low strength measurements. 很像CTOD测试, JIC or JR testing measures the instability of material before failure, 但更关注的是韧性撕裂. 

T-notch测试

Choosing the appropriate test method and standard is dependent on the behavior of the material being evaluated. Metallic materials, like aluminum, present linear-elastic behavior. Whereas plastics, polymers, and other non-metallic materials exhibit elastic-plastic behavior.

Established industry standards recommend one of three different modes of load application for crack propagation. 

  • 模式一:荷载沿裂纹面方向施加
  • 模式二:沿裂缝面长度方向施加荷载
  • 模式3:荷载沿裂缝面宽度方向施加
