This STP contains presented at the symposium on Rapid Load Fracture Testing. The symposium was sponsored by ASTM Committee E-24 on Fracture Testing in April, 1990. The symposium focused on test methods that could: reduce the amount of data scatter, provide lower-bound measures of fracture toughness, and improve the efficiency of testing with material of limited availability.
Specific topics covered by the papers in this STP include:
- embrittlement
- pressure vessel steel
- fracture toughness
- dynamic toughness
- crack arrest
- transition temperature
- radiation damage
- rapid load dynamic initiation fracture toughness
- crack arrest fracture toughness
- ductile cast iron
- nodular cast iron
- spent-fuel casks
- transition between upper-shelf and lower-shelf dynamic fracture toughness
- crack-tip opening displacement (CTOD)
- crack-mouth opening displacement (CMOD)
- interferometry
- three-point bend tests
- small specimens
- ASTM E 1221
- plane-strain
- fracture testing standards
- impact testing
- upper-shelf fracture toughness pressure vessel steel
- cleavage fracture
- crack instability
- crack-tip constraint
- single-edge notched bend (SENB) specimen
- mechanical damping, drop tower
- lower-bound initiation toughness of A533-B reactor-grade steel
- Charpy specimens
- crack resistance curve
- crack branching
- metallographic sectioning
