An Apparatus for Shearing Bulk Materials at High Temperature, High Pressure, and Various Strain Rates

Abstract
An apparatus is described which measures the shear strength of bulk materials in the temperature range from 25 to 350°C, in the pressure range from 20–80 kilobars. The strain rate in this pressure and temperature range can be varied between 3.5×10−7 and 3.7×10−1 sec−1. Some data on OFHC copper are given to indicate the type of results obtained from this apparatus.
