FEA simulation of standard tensile coupon testing

A FE model of a standard cylindrical coupon 0.5 inch in diam. was developed. The geometry of the constant-area test section is completely uniform, no geometric imperfection was induced in order to \u201chelp\u201d the necking process. A simplified axisymmetric approach was...
