Bending test, plastic deformation (SE 110.48)

plot load–extension diagrams

Code SE110.48

Description:

  • Mechanical stress, to which design elements are generally exposed, generates stresses in the affected component or the material.
  • If these stresses are too large, there is plastic deformation of the material in addition to the elastic, reversible deformation.
  • The component does not return fully to its original form after the deformation, resulting in a change of shape.
  • The beam studied in SE 110.48is mounted on both sides.
  • A movable and a fixed support are included in the scope of delivery to secure the beam.
  • The beam is loaded with a point load.
  • The load application device can be positioned anywhere on the frame.
  • A dial gauge records the deformation.
  • Beams of different materials and profiles are included in the scope of delivery.
  • The transition from elastic to plastic deformation is observed and determined in the experiment.
  • The values obtained are used to create a load–extension diagram, in which the nonlinear behaviour of the deformation is demonstrated.
  • The parts of the experiment are laid out clearly and housed securely in a storage system.
  • The entire experimental setup is constructed in the SE 112 mounting frame.
