The three point bending flexural test provides values for the modulus of elasticity in bending , flexural stress , flexural strain and the flexural stress-strain response of the material. The main advantage of a three point flexural test is the ease of the specimen preparation and testing. However, this method has also some disadvantages: the results of the testing method are sensitive to specimen and loading geometry and strain rate. == Testing method == The test method for conducting the test usually involves a specified test fixture on a universal testing machine. Details of the test preparation, conditioning, and conduct affect the test results. The sample is placed on two supporting pins a set distance apart and a third loading pin is lowered from above at a constant rate until sample failure. Calculation of the flexural stress : for a rectangular cross section : for a circular cross section Calculation of the flexural strain : Calculation of flexural modulus : in these formulas the following parameters are used: * = Stress in outer fibers at midpoint, (MPa) * = Strain in the outer surface, (mm/mm) * = flexural Modulus of elasticity,(MPa) * = load at a given point on the load deflection curve, (N) * = Support span, (mm) * = Width of test beam, (mm) * = Depth of tested beam, (mm) * = maximum deflection of the center of the beam, (mm) * = The gradient (i.e., slope) of the initial straight-line portion of the load deflection curve,(P/D), (N/mm) * = The radius of the beam, (mm) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Three point flexural test」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
