Abstract

For identifying constitutive properties of materials used in microstructures, a micro tensile testing-machine is developed. The concept of a load frame, consisting of two parallel positioned springs is used in designing the micro tensile testing-machine. The load frame is installed in a conventional tensile testing machine. The two parallel springs ensure axial loading of the specimen, even if the pull rods of the testing machine should not be absolutely axial. First experimental results indicate that this testing-system can be used successfully for determining constitutive properties of microspecimens.
