Abstract:This paper deals with the effect of novel gripping systems developed for tensile testing on the stress distribution inside the test piece. The uniformity of the stress distribution plays a decisive role in measuring the upper yield strength and creep behavior of materials. In this study two modified versions of a recently developed gripping system are introduced and tested together with the original version. The tests consist of measuring the bending stress/axial stress ration during elastic loading of the tes… Show more
