Significance and Use4.1 This practice may be used for material development,material comparison, quality assurance, characterization, reli-ability assessment, and design data generation
34、.4.2 High-strength, monolithic advanced ceramic materialsare generally characterized by small grain sizes (50 Hz) that can cause internalheating (hysteresis) of the test specimen thereby affecting thecyclic fatigue life. If test specimen heating is likely to occur orwhen there is doubt, monitor the
35、test specimen temperatureduring the cycling. Possible methods are: the use of radiationthermometer, thermocouples adhered to the specimen, oroptical pyrometry.6.8.1 Environmental ConditionsFor ambient tempera-ture tests conducted under constant environmental conditions,control temperature and relati
36、ve humidity to within 63C and610 % RH, respectively. Measure and report temperature andrelative humidity in accordance with 9.3.5.7. Hazards7.1 During the conducting of this practice, the possibility offlying fragments of broken test material may be great. Thebrittle nature of advanced ceramics and
37、the release of strainenergy contribute to the potential release of uncontrolledfragments upon fracture. Means for containment and retentionof these fragments for safety as well as later fractographicreconstruction and analysis are recommended.8. Test Specimen8.1 Test Specimen GeometryTensile test sp
38、ecimens asdiscussed in 8.1 of Test Method C1273 may be used for cyclicfatigue testing as long as they meet the requirements of thispractice and Test Method C1273.8.2 Test Specimen PreparationTest specimen fabricationand preparation methods as discussed in 8.2 of Test MethodC1273 may be used for cycl
39、ic fatigue testing as long as theymeet the requirements of this practice and Test Method C1273.8.3 Handling PrecautionExercise care in storing andhandling finished specimens to avoid the introduction ofrandom and severe flaws. In addition, give attention to preteststorage of test specimens in contro
40、lled environments or desic-cators to avoid unquantifiable environmental degradation ofspecimens prior to testing. If conditioning is required, condi-tion or test the specimens, or both in a room or enclosed spacemaintained at 63C and 610 % relative humidity measured inaccordance with Test Method E33
41、7.8.4 Number of Test SpecimensThe number of test speci-mens will depend on the purpose of the particular test. Refer toSTP 91A as a guide to determining the number of testspecimens and statistical methods.8.5 Valid TestsA valid individual test is one which meetsall the following requirements: all th
42、e testing requirements ofthis practice and Test Method C1273, and for a test involvinga failed test specimen, failure occurs in the uniformly stressedgage section unless those tests failing outside the gage sectionare interpreted as interrupted tests for the purpose of censoredtest analyses.9. Proce
43、dure9.1 Test Specimen DimensionsDetermine the diameter orthe thickness and width of the gage section of each testspecimen, or both, to within 0.02 mm on at least three differentcross-sectional planes in the gage section. To avoid damage inthe critical gage section area make these measurements either
44、optically (for example, using an optical comparator) or me-chanically using a flat, anvil-type micrometer. In either case,the resolution of the instrument shall be as specified in 6.7.Exercise extreme caution to prevent damage to the testspecimen gage section. Record and report the measured dimen-si
45、ons and locations of the measurements for use in thecalculation of the tensile stress at fracture. Use the average ofthe multiple measurements in the stress calculations.NOTE 1Ball-tipped or sharp-anvil micrometers may damage the testspecimen surface by inducing localized cracking and, therefore, ar
46、e notrecommended.9.1.1 Conduct periodic, if not 100 %, inspection/measurements of all test specimens and test specimen dimen-sions to ensure compliance with the drawing specifications.High-resolution optical methods (for example, an opticalcomparator) or high-resolution digital point contact methods
47、(for example coordinate measurement machine) are satisfac-tory as long as the equipment meets the specifications in 6.7.The frequency of occurrence of gage section fractures andbending in the gage section are dependent on proper overalltest specimen dimensions within the required tolerances.9.1.2 In
48、 some cases it is desirable, but not required, tomeasure surface finish to quantify the surface condition. Suchmethods as contacting profilometry can be used to determinesurface roughness of the gage section. When quantified, reportthe direction(s) of the surface roughness measurement andsurface rou
49、ghness as average surface roughness, Ra, or root-mean-square surface roughness, Rq, at a minimum.9.2 Test Modes and Rates:9.2.1 GeneralTest modes and rates can have distinct andstrong influences on the cyclic fatigue behavior of advancedceramics even at ambient temperatures depending on testenvironment or condition of the test specimen. Test modes mayinvolve load, displacement, or strain control. Maximum andminimum test levels as well as frequency and wave form shapewill depend on the purpose for w
