Pull-push (axial) strain-controlled fatigue tests following the standard ISO 12016:2003 were then performed on the MTS NEW 810 fatigue testing system at room temperature and 300 °C. The triangular waveform was selected with the strain ratio of R = − 1, the constant strain rate of...
Apart from using electric current, another advanced SPR system using gunpowder to push the rivet into the joining aluminium sheets is reported [13]. The gunpowder is first stored in a shell, and when ignited, it impacts on a punch, which hits the rivet head, creating animpact SPRprocess, w...
it was found that the results of the bond strength test on the bonding surfaces were significantly affected by the type of test. In the order of oblique shear test, double-sided shear or pure shear test, split test, and pull-off test, the bond strength decreases sequentially with the test...
The load displacement pull up was defined as negative (−) and the push down as positive (+). The test involved lifting the prefabricated beam to the horizontal position, calibrating it with a laser level, tightening the bolts with a torque wrench, and setting the current position as the ...
