Title: Inelastic bending of a nickel beam at several temperatures: experiment and prediction

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5129442· OSTI ID:5129442

The results of an experiment on the bending response of a nickel prismatic beam under four point loading at 25/sup 0/C, 200/sup 0/C, and 300/sup 0/C are described. The specimens have been subjected to histories of steady applied moment with a sequence of step changes both positive and negative. The measured results are compared with predictions based on Hart's constitutive equations. The experimental conditions and procedures are described. The experiment and the predictions are compared with prior studies.
