The Use of Small Punch Sample for Testing of Mechanics Properties of Aluminium Alloy Welded Joint

Abstract:

This paper uses the small punch test (SPT) to some performance of the materials, have put forward basic method to test the material tensile mechanics performance from an inverse FE method with SPT. The research shows that some tensile mechanics performance and stress of each district of welding seam can be accurate determined by small punch test. This research has offered the theoretical foundation for characterizing of the welded joint with mechanical heterogeneity
