Abstract
The apparatus is designed to apply a complex creep and fatigue stressing programme to a metal test-piece. A new electrical system has been developed which controls the extension of a mechanical spring in such a way that the test proceeds automatically under either constant stress or constant load, as required. The creep strain and the stress error are recorded during the test. The same system may be used to conduct creep recovery or stress relaxation tests.
