Chemical stress corrosion stretching system for preventing sample from bubbling and strain measurement method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of tensile test of material mechanics and optical measurement experiment mechanics, and particularly relates to a chemical stress corrosion tensile system for preventing a sample from bubbling and a strain measurement method.
Background
In the field of material testing and mechanical experiments, a tensile testing experiment is an experiment which is most basic and widely applied to research on the mechanical properties of materials, and is widely applied to representing the mechanical response of metals and nonmetals, evaluating the functional difference of different test pieces, drawing a tensile curve of the materials and exploring the constitutive relation of the materials.
Stress corrosion is a form of failure of metallic materials under the combined action of corrosive media and tensile stress. When metal is subjected to stress corrosion, two factors, i.e., corrosion and stress, are mutually promoted. Therefore, compared with in-situ stretching, stress corrosion has larger influence on mechanical representation and practical application of a sample, has very large influence on properties such as strength, rigidity, service life and the like of a material, and even influences the reliability of the material. This results in higher requirements for strain measurement of the sample, which requires mechanical characterization of the sample in a chemical solution water bath.
However, in the conventional mechanical tensile test, due to the limitations of the structure of the device and the data acquisition angle, the material can only be subjected to a tensile test without water bath, the mechanical property of the material after stress corrosion cannot be measured, and the real-time mechanical response of the material after stress corrosion cannot be obtained. Therefore, the conventional tensile test needs to be improved to have the function of tensile test under stress corrosion so as to measure the mechanical property parameters of the material under the chemical solution water bath condition.
The stress corrosion tensile test has two outstanding problems to be solved, and the first problem is the measurement problem of the stress strain field. The traditional stretching device generally collects data above the surface of a test piece, but the lens surface of an independent DIC (digital image correlation) test system is longitudinal, so that the measurement cannot be carried out under the condition that the surface of the test piece faces upwards. Thus in experiments it was necessary to perform measurements with the sample surface parallel to the lens surface of the DIC system, i.e. the sample turned sideways from its original surface facing upwards. In addition, after the traditional stretching device stretches the sample, the sample needs to be stretched under the stress corrosion condition and the stress strain of the sample needs to be measured in real time.
The second problem to be solved in the chemical corrosion test is the bubbling on the surface of the sample. When carrying out in the water bath case and corroding tensile experiment to sample chemical stress, the bubble can appear because chemical corrosion in the test piece surface, and the bubble of appearance can cause the influence to DIC formation of image. Therefore, it is necessary to wash the sample with the solution in time when bubbles appear on the surface of the sample to reduce the influence of the bubbles on the imaging.
Therefore, a non-contact stretching device and a full-field measurement system for preventing the sample from bubbling under the chemical stress corrosion condition are needed to quickly, conveniently and accurately evaluate the mechanical property of the material
