3、ic materials.Specimens ofthese materials possess specific mechanical resonance frequen-cies which are defined by the elastic moduli,density,andgeometry of the test specimen.Therefore the elastic propertiesof a material can be computed if the geometry,density,andmechanical resonance frequencies of a
4、suitable test specimenof that material can be measured.Youngs modulus is deter-mined using the resonance frequency in the flexural mode ofvibration.The shear modulus,or modulus of rigidity,is foundusing torsional resonance vibrations.Youngs modulus andshear modulus are used to compute Poissons ratio

8、ceramics are usuallyso on a macroscopic scale,because of random distribution and orientationof crystallites.1.3 A cryogenic cabinet and high-temperature furnace aredescribed for measuring the elastic moduli as a function oftemperature from 195 to 1200C.1.4 Modification of the test for use in quality
9、 control ispossible.A range of acceptable resonance frequencies isdetermined for a piece with a particular geometry and density.Any specimen with a frequency response falling outside thisfrequency range is rejected.The actual modulus of each pieceneed not be determined as long as the limits of the s
10、electedfrequency range are known to include the resonance frequencythat the piece must possess if its geometry and density arewithin specified tolerances.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.6 This standard does
11、not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Summary of Test Method2.1 This test met
12、hod measures the resonance frequencies oftest bars of suitable geometry by exciting them at continuouslyvariable frequencies.Mechanical excitation of the specimen isprovided through use of a transducer that transforms an initialelectrical signal into a mechanical vibration.Another trans-ducer senses
13、 the resulting mechanical vibrations of the speci-men and transforms them into an electrical signal that can bedisplayed on the screen of an oscilloscope to detect resonance.The reasonance frequencies,the dimensions,and the mass ofthe specimen are used to calculate Youngs modulus and theshear modulu
14、s.3.Significance and Use3.1 This test system has advantages in certain respects overthe use of static loading systems in the measurement of glassand glass-ceramics:3.1.1 Only minute stresses are applied to the specimen,thusminimizing the possibility of fracture.3.1.2 The period of time during which
15、stress is applied andremoved is of the order of hundreds of microseconds,makingit feasible to perform measurements at temperatures wheredelayed elastic and creep effects proceed on a much-shortenedtime scale,as in the transformation range of glass,for instance.1This test method is under the jurisdic
