Determination of the Effect of Stress State on the Onset of Ductile Fracture Through Tension-Torsion Experiments

A tubular tension-torsion specimen is proposed to characterize the onset of ductile fracture in bulk materials at low stress triaxialities. The specimen features a stocky gage section of reduced thickness. The specimen geometry is optimized such that the stress and strain fields within the gage sect...
