Study on Bulge Test by Moire Method

모아레法 에 의한 벌지試驗 에 관한 硏究

This study measures polar compressive thickness strain and radius of curvature of the bulge through Moire' method in bulge test. Hill's and Alexander's bulge theories, instability conditions derived by Swift's, Hill's, Alexander's and wang's theories, are also investigated, compared with Moire' experimental results. In order to review and compare with Hill's and Alexander's bulge theories, the relationships between radius of curvature of the bulge and polar height, between polar compressive thickness strain and polar height, are used. Mild steel, soft copper and commercial pure aluminum are used in Moire' experiment. According to this study, Hill's and Alexander's bulge theories, instability conditions derived by Swift's, Hill's, Alexander's and Wang's theories are agreement to Moire' experiment results.
