29、ommended.5.2 Surface preparation of test specimens, although normally not considered a major concern in CFCCs, can introducefabrication flaws that may have pronounced effects on compressive mechanical properties and behavior (for example, shape andlevel of the resulting stress-strain curve, compress

30、ive strength and strain, proportional limit stress and strain, etc.) Machiningdamage introduced during test specimen preparation can be either a random interfering factor in the determination of ultimatestrength of pristine material (that is, increased frequency of surface-initiated fractures compar

31、ed to volume-initiated fractures), oran inherent part of the strength characteristics to be measured. Surface preparation can also lead to the introduction of residualstresses. Universal or standardized test methods of surface preparation do not exist. In addition, the nature of fabrication used for

32、certain composites (for example, chemical vapor infiltration or hot pressing) may require the testing of test specimens in theas-processed condition (that is, it may not be possible to machine the test specimen faces without compromising the in-plane fiberarchitecture). Final machining steps may, or

33、 may not, negate machining damage introduced during the initial machining. Thus,report test specimen fabrication history since it may play an important role in the measured strength distributions.5.3 Bending in uniaxial compressive tests can introduce eccentricity leading to geometric instability of

34、 the test specimen andbuckling failure before true compressive strength is attained. In addition, if deformations or strains are measured at surfaces wheremaximum or minimum stresses occur, bending may introduce over or under measurement of strains depending on the location ofthe strain-measuring de

35、vice on the test specimen. Bending can be introduced from, among other sources, initial load trainmisalignment, misaligned test specimens as installed in the grips, warped test specimens, or load train misalignment introducedduring testing due to low lateral machine/grip stiffness.5.4 Fractures that

36、 initiate outside the uniformly stressed gage section of a test specimen may be due to factors such as stressconcentrations or geometrical transitions, extraneous stresses introduced by gripping, or strength-limiting features in themicrostructure of the test specimen. Such non-gage section fractures

37、 will normally constitute invalid tests. In addition, for frictionalface-loaded geometrics, gripping pressure is a key variable in the initiation of fracture. Insufficient pressure can shear the outerplies in laminated CFCCs; while too much pressure can cause local crushing of the CFCC and may initi

38、ate fracture in the vicinityof the grips.5.5 Lateral supports are sometimes used in compression tests to reduce the tendency of test specimen buckling. However, suchlateral supports may introduce sufficient frictional stress so as to artificially increase the force required to produce compressivefai

39、lure. In addition, the lateral supports and attendant frictional stresses may invalidate the assumption of uniaxial stress state.When lateral supports are used, the frictional effect should be quantified to ensure that its contribution is small, and the means fordoing so reported along with the quan

41、ces E4. A schematic showing pertinent features of one possible compressive testing apparatus is shown in Fig. 1.6.2 Gripping Devices:C1358 1336.2.1 GeneralVarious types of gripping devices may be used to transmit the measured force applied by the testing machineto the test specimens. The brittle nat

42、ure of the matrices of CFCCs requires a uniform interface between the grip components andthe gripped section of the test specimen. Line or point contacts and nonuniform pressure can produce Hertzian-type stresses leadingto crack initiation and fracture of the test specimen in the gripped section.6.2

43、.1.1 The primary recommended gripping system for compressive testing CFCCs employs active grip interfaces that requirea continuous application of a mechanical, hydraulic, or pneumatic force to transmit the force applied by the test machine to thetest specimen. These types of grip interfaces (that is

44、, frictional face-loaded grips) cause a force to be applied normal to the surfaceof the gripped section of the test specimen. Transmission of the uniaxial force applied by the test machine is then accomplishedby friction between the test specimen and the grip faces. Thus, important aspects of active

45、 grip interfaces are uniform contactbetween the gripped section of the test specimen and the grip faces and constant coefficient of friction over the grip/specimeninterface.6.2.1.2 For flat test specimens, frictional face-loaded grips, either by direct lateral pressure grip faces (1)3 or by indirect

46、wedge-type grip faces, act as the grip interface (2,3) as illustrated in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, respectively. Generally, close tolerancesare required for the flatness and parallelism as well as for the wedge angle of the wedge grip faces. In addition, the thickness,flatness, and parallelism of the gripp

47、ed section of the test specimen must be within similarly close tolerances to promote uniformcontact at the test specimen/grip interface. Tolerances will vary depending on the exact configuration as shown in the appropriatetest specimen drawings.3 The boldface numbers given in parentheses refer to a

49、t slippage between the grip face and the test specimen. Grip surfacesthat are scored or serrated with a pattern similar to that of a single-cut file have been found satisfactory. A fine serration appearsto be the most satisfactory. Keep the serrations clean and well-defined but not overly sharp. The length and width of the grip facesshall be equal to or greater than the respective length and width of the gripped sections of the test specimen.6.2.1.4 An alternative recommended gripping system for compressive testing CFCCs employs passiv
