In the dissertation the influence of overheating of around 250oC above Tliq on the material reliability of AlSi17Cu5 cast alloy has been shown. On the basis of static tensile test, the following had been determined: HB hardness, tensile strength and yield strength for four, chosen technological variants. The results were the base to verify the thesis of compliance between tested feature arrangement and normal arrangement, and on this ground also material reliability determined with Weibull’s statistic arrangement had been defined. This parameter grasp the interdependence between lasting probability and chosen material property of the alloy.

Tensile test at loading velocities up to 10 m·s-1(strain rate up to 3.2x102s-1) was carried out forr SiCp/AC4CH composite and AC4CH alloy. The microstructure of the composite before and after tensile deformation was carefully examined with both optical microscope and SEM. The experimental results demonstrated that the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and yield strength (YS) increase with increasing loading velocity up to 10 m·s-1. Comparing with AC4CH alloy, the fracture elongation of the composite is sensitivity with the increasing strain rate. The YS of both the composite and AC4CH alloy shows more sensitive than that of the UTS with the increasing strain rate, especially in the range of strain rate higher than 102s-1.

The instrumented indentation test, which measures indentation tensile properties, has attracted interest recently because this test can replace uniaxial tensile test. An international standard for instrumented indentation test has been recently legislated. However, the uncertainty of the indentation tensile properties has never been estimated. The indentation tensile properties cannot be obtained directly from experimental raw data as can the Brinell hardness, which makes estimation of the uncertainty difficult. The simplifying uncertainty estimation model for the indentation tensile properties proposed here overcomes this problem. Though the influence quantities are generally defined by experimental variances when estimating uncertainty, here they are obtained by calculation from indentation load-depth curves. This model was verified by round-robin test with several institutions. The average uncertainties were estimated as 18.9% and 9.8% for the indentation yield strength and indentation tensile strength, respectively. The values were independent of the materials’ mechanical properties but varied with environmental conditions such as experimental instruments and operators. The uncertainties for the indentation yield and tensile strengths were greater than those for the uniaxial tensile test. These larger uncertainties were caused by measuring local properties in the instrumented indentation test. The two tests had the same tendency to have smaller uncertainties for tensile strength than yield strength. These results suggest that the simplified model can be used to estimate the uncertainty in indentation tensile properties.

The mechanical properties, among all the properties of plastic materials, are often the most important properties because virtually all service conditions and the majority of end-use applications involve some degree of mechanical loading [1]. In the present work three different commercial polyethylene materials are tensile tested at four or five different tensile rates and two or three temperatures. Tensile test results against tensile rate include stress at 0.5 % elongation, tensile strength, yield strength, modulus of elasticity, elongation at yield and % elongation are determined. It is concluded that the structure, chain lengths and branching rates of polymer matrix significantly effected tensile test curve characteristic.

A small amount of nanodispersed filler leads to an improvement in material properties. Montmorillonite (MMT) is one type of filler commonly used in nanocomposite material. A high density polyethylene/ethylene propylene rubber - montmorillonite (HDPE/EPR-MMT) is one of the nanocomposite material that is new to the industry. This paper investigates the strength of HDPE/EPR-MMT nanocomposite under tensile loading. The experimental results of the tensile test on the nanocomposite will be compared with the tensile simulation in the Finite Element (FE) analysis for validation. The results showed that it is validated with relatively low percentage error of 0.01 % for the ultimate tensile strength and 0.18 % for the yield strength. The ultimate tensile strength of HDPE/EPR-MMT is 14.5 MPa and the yield strength is 13.2 MPa. By using MMT as a filler, the material strength is improved. The ultimate tensile strength of HDPE/EPR without filler is 11.45 MPa and the yield strength is 10.95 MPa.

The Mg96Y3Zn1 alloy processed by equal channel angular pressing has been investigated. It was found that the Mg96Y3Zn1 alloy processed by ECAP obtained ultrafine grains and exhibits excellent mechanical properties. After ECAP, the average grain size of Mg96Y3Zn1 alloy refined to about 400 nm. The highest strengths with yield strength of 381.45MPa and ultimate tensile strength of 438.33MPa were obtained after 2 passes at 623K. It was found that cracks were preferentially initiated and propagated in the interior of X-phase during the tensile test. As a result, the elongation of alloy is decreased with pass number increasing.
