The Basics of Testing Plastics: Mechanical Properties, Flame Exposure, and General Guidelines
The Basics of Testing Plastics: Mechanical Properties, Flame Exposure, and General Guidelines
ISBN: 0803120796
ISBN13: 9780803120792
This manual is the first in a planned series of volumes addressing the challenges and problems associated with testing plastics. Future manuals will focus on electrical characteristics, optical and chemical properties, rheological behavior, as well as global concerns for international testing harmonization, recycling, and other important analytical techniques.
Provides basic information for persons who are not well-experienced in the testing of plastics: chemists, materials engineers, technicians, salesmen, purchasing personnel, newly-appointed laboratory supervisors, quality control personnel, shop foremen, order correspondents, and many others who may work with test data.
Chapter 1- Classification and Definitions, by Stephen Burke Driscoll -- Explains briefly some of the more important characteristics of plastics and how these relate to end-use performance. The various classification schemes illustrate the unique versatility of the polymer industry and how simple changes in the composition or structure of the polymer can significantly influence its processability and how it is used. This chapter also includes an abbreviated glossary of terms, definitions, and explanations of those important chemical additives used to modify the performance of many polymers.
Chapter 2- General Guidelines for Conducting Tests and Evaluating Data, by Alvin J. Flint, Jr.-- Avoid losing money through "false facts" from test data. Includes standard deviation, coefficient of variation, range, Least Significant Differences, and outliers. Discusses the most important aspects of ASTM test methods and specifications.
Chapter 3- Measuring Mechanical Properties of Plastics, by Alvin J. Flint, Jr. -- Three kinds of modulus, viscoelastic behavior. Important aspects of tensile, compressive, flexural, shear, impact, creep, fatigue, HDT, and weathering tests. Test equipment and how data is obtained (including computerization and automation).
Chapter 4- Responses to Flame Exposure, by Alvin J. Flint, Jr. -- Tests for ignition, flame spread, fuel contribution, smoke generation, and toxicity. Small-scale, medium-scale, and large-scale tests and their usefulness, including case studies.

Dear Member of CivilEA
I ever wrote about error of our forum search engine.
Before posting new book / software I always use forum search engine, but twice my posting warning because ever posted by others [ this happen last month ] I get clue ( possibility reason ) about this matter : only VIP, moderator & Admin having full access to this group, maybe the forum seach engine only can seach for common forum ( forum access for non VIP, Moderator & Admin ) then the materials that available in "VIP, Moderator, Admin" maybe untouchable by the forum search engine.
And "duplicate thread / materials" maybe caused by this matter
Thanks
Paladin

High Cycle Fatigue: A Mechanics of Materials Perspective Theodore Nicholas
High Cycle Fatigue: A Mechanics of Materials Perspective
Theodore Nicholas
Publisher: Elsevier Science 2006
ISBN: 0080446914
656 Pages PDF 5 MB
Dr Theodore Nicholas ran the High Cycle Fatigue Program for the US Air Force between 1995 and 2003 at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, and is one of the world's leading authorities on the subject, having authored over 250 papers in leading archival journals and books.
Bringing his plethora of expertise to this book, Dr Nicholas discusses the subject of high cycle fatigue (HCF) from an engineering viewpoint in response to a series of HCF failures in the USAF and the concurrent realization that HCF failures in general were taking place universally in both civilian and military engines.
Topic covered include:
* Constant life diagrams
* Fatigue limits under combined LCF and HCF
* Notch fatigue under HCF conditions
* Foreign object damage (FOD)
