43、response.4X1.1 Measurement of modulus of elasticity requires very precise measurements beyond the scope of this standard. test method.Test Methods E111and E1876 address determination of modulus of elasticity. For superelastic nitinol, the dynamic method (TestMethod E1876) is preferred. Note that the

44、 modulus of elasticity exhibits large variation with the martensitic transformation.trans-formation (1).4X1.2 Tensile loading of nickel-titanium superelastic materials to fracture will generally encompass elastic strains, phasetransformation strains, martensite reorientation strains (twinning) and p

45、lastic strains (2). Tensile loading following plastic yieldingand the accompanying drop in tangent modulus, usually results in an instability that localizes the highest stress into a narrowedneck region and ends in fracture. The Uniform Elongation measurement, which is determined at the onset of nec

46、king, is not anaccurate measure of ductility. However, Uniform Elongation can be useful as a process control measure. Elongation at Fractureprovides an overall elongation value that includes elongation between the extensometer attachment points, including the neckingelongation, but is dependent on t

47、he gage length and underestimates the strain in the necked fracture region. Conventionally,Reduction of Area and Fracture Ductility are used to estimate the high strains in the necked region. They are interpreted asmeasures of material ductility, the ability of a material to deform plastically befor
