Title:
Cyclic Mechanical Tests and an Appropriate Analytical Stress-Strain Model for A36 Steel
Report Date:
1974-05-01
Abstract:
The report establishes the monotonic and steady-state cyclic stress-strain properties for smooth, uniaxially-loaded specimens of A36 steel. Transient characteristics of cyclic hardening and softening and cyclic relaxation of mean stress are investigated. Deflection versus load and strain versus load are reported for a simple beam subjected to three-point bending. Six computer programs are included. These programs were developed to fit specific needs of the finite element program for determining energy dissipation in dynamically loaded structures.
