Effects of the striking edge radius of the Charpy impact test on the absorbed energy and the abrasion of the striker were investigated. The absorbed energy of the 8mmR was higher than that of the 2mmR when the absorbed energy was above 200N-m. The cause of this difference is that the bending deformation of the test specimen and the friction between the anvil and the test specimen are large in case of the 8mmR. The abrasion of the 8mmR striker was extremely large and it is too difficult to maintain the radius dimension according to ASTM E 23.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
