Abstract

ABSTRACTIn structural analysis and design, it is essential to define the material properties associated with the targeted structural systems. When harsh environmental or operational conditions are of primary concern, the mechanical properties of materials must be quantified by considering the effects of the conditions. The aim of this study is to develop a new test database on the mechanical properties of materials for marine applications, such as mild steel, high-tensile steel, aluminium alloy 5083-O and stainless steel 304L, focusing on the effects of cold temperatures and strain rates. Discussion of the new test database refers to extant test databases where available. Moreover, test coefficients that may be useful in the existing constitutive equations for the materials are suggested and the details of the test database are documented.
