The specimens that shall be tested in this project shall not be indented until failure. Therefore this could be considered a deviation from the test method. ASTM D6641 is recommended for use with undamaged specimens. The results of this test method will help determine the damage tolerance on the composite panels fabricated.

In the scope section there is written that this test method is
used to test specimens subjected to ASTM D6264. In ASTM D 6264 there is written that the specimens are tested until failure. The specimens that shall be tested in this project shall not be indented until failure. Therefore this could be considered a deviation from the test method. This test method is not recommended for use with undamaged specimens. ASTM D6641 is recommended for use with undamaged specimens. The test consists of a uniaxial compression test on a balanced symmetric damaged specimen that has been inspected prior to CAI testing While loading, the parameters that are recorded include foredisplacement and strain data. The size shape and location of the damage have to be reported. The standard advises the damage size to be less than 42mm. The bottom of the test fixture is placed on the bottom support of the machine. The load is applied through the (top) moving crosshead. Section 4.2 advises the use of flat platens. However, since they were not available the load was applied by means of a cylindrical object [PROVIDE A BETTER DESCRIPTION]. The cylindrical object was aligned carefully with the centre of the top plate so as to have a centred load. It would e recommended to either machine an additional set of flat platens or to exaimine the influence on results of the methodology adopted. The anti-buckling system constraints bust be tightened and aligned properly due to the reasons mentioned in 6.5 Section 4.3 also specifies the failure modes that are acceptable. These can be seen in the figure. One may notice that most of them pass through the damage site. Failure modes which are due to loads introduced by the supports are not acceptable. The standard also specifies that thickness measurement instruments should have an error of 0.0025mm while wdith and length measurements should have an error of 0.025mm. same error applies for damage measurement. The results of this test method will help determine the damage tolerance on the composite panels fabricated. However, one must understand the the damage tolerance of a composite material is dependent upon geometry, stiffness, support conditions The size, shape and geometry of the inflicted damage has to be specified. The damage that has to be specified includes both surface damage and through thickness damage.
[from the results check whether the damage is repeatable]
the damage size has to be limited to half the unsupported specimen width since the stress/strain fields induced by the damage can interact with the edges of the specimen section 6.5 claims that results can be influenced by the gaps between the specimen face and the supporting plates. Try insert a photograph of this issue here and comment about it. The same section places an emphasis on loose fasteners and the way they can influence results, Note that all fasteners were tightened as much as possible by hand. Explore non-destructive and destructive inspection techniques that shall be used. Explain that some of the support fixture dimensions were altered and refer to them in the appropriate section. As in the case of indentation testing, specimen conditioning was not possible The standard does not require the use of strain measuring devices. Quite basically, it suggests an arrangement of strain gauges on the specimen surface. If a different arrangement is to be used, it has to be explained carefully and no damage is to be done to the specimen surface by bonding. the number of test specimens tested was [insert number of test specimens] the specimen thickness has to be recorded at four places in the vicinity of the damage using a tool with 1% accuracy and the mean is calculated. As suggested by the standard, the crosshead displacement rate used was 1.25 mm/min Section 11.6 reccommends the test specimens to be tested in the same condtions as storage conditions The specimen is loaded until the force rises and drops to a value equal to 70% of this value. Strain is to be recorded with force and displacement. A minimum of 100 data points is required.
