ABSTRACTContact mechanics for indentation testing with spherical indenter is very attractive. Numerous projects have established equations to define strain and stress distribution in order to obtain stress-strain relationship from a single indentation experiment. Also a large number of studies have focused on metallic materials with the objective of estimating the yield point.The subject of this work is to analyze the behavior of various polymeric materials during spherical indentation testing at various temperature in order to observe the relationship between the indentation behavior and compression stress-strain behavior of the same materials as a function of temperature. Thermal effects on the indentation data are used to understand the actual effects of the mechanical properties on the indentation behavior. In addition to the load, displacement, and frequency specific stiffness information, topographic analysis of the residual indentation print is used to accurately estimate the contact area, therefore, validate the indentation models for contact depth calculations using spherical indentation. Results presented in this article include spherical indentation data obtained on PMMA and Polycarbonate over a range of temperature from 5°C to l00°C.

Abstract Unidirectional cord-rubber specimens in the form of tensile coupons and sandwich beams were used. Using specimens with the cords oriented at 0°, 45°, and 90° to the loading direction and appropriate data reduction, we were able to obtain complete characterization for the in-plane stress-strain response of single-ply, unidirectional cord-rubber composites. All strains were measured by means of liquid mercury strain gages, for which the nonlinear strain response characteristic was obtained by calibration. Stress-strain data were obtained for the cases of both cord tension and cord compression. Materials investigated were aramid-rubber, polyester-rubber, and steel-rubber.

This paper analyzes the impact of natural random variation of soil properties on the constitutive modelling of geomaterial behaviour. A theoretical framework for accommodating variation in soil properties is presented. The framework is then used to examine the consequence of parameter variability on stress–strain relations. An important observation is that average soil parameters from a series of tests on small specimens, in which density of the specimens varies randomly, do not necessarily reflect the average constitutive behaviour of soil. Model predictions are shown to be consistent with the experimental data.Key words: random variability, deterministic analysis, soil parameters, constitutive model.

Intumescent mat materials in catalytic converters undergo chemical reactions that lead to material property changes and volume expansion during heating processes. Dead weight (load control) and displacement control compression experiments have been performed to explore static and transient stress-strain responses. The apparatus and methods for both experiments are described. The experimental results together with a strain decomposition procedure yield a master curve that can be employed for constitutive modelling.
