  • A Method of Measuring Post-Yield Strain

  • F. J. Woodcock, K. R. Weiss
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    28 July 2016, pp. 49-51

  • Increasing interest has been shown recently in the measurement and interpretation of post-yield strains. Early investigators determined the nature and magnitude of such strains by observing the distortion of a grid of fine lines inscribed on the unstrained metal. A development of this method involved the use of a photographically deposited grid.

    In the present instance the initial requirement (August 1948) was for the measurement against time of strains of the order of 4 per cent. occurring as “ fast transients.”

    As the wire resistance strain gauge element was well established, it was natural to consider its extension to post-yield measurements, and it later became apparent that this had already been done by Swainger.
