Abstract

Small punch testing, either at constant displacement rate or constant load is experimentally simple to perform. However care must be taken to ensure that the data obtained are reproducible as the results obtained are sensitive to the geometry of the test jigs used. The influence of the diameter of the indenting sphere and the receiving orifice has been investigated for both types of test.
A procedure for performing constant load small punch tests, which will ensure repeatable results is proposed.
