ASTM E 328-13 Standard test method for Stress Relaxation for Materials and Structures
ASTM E 328-12 covers a broad range of testing activities. These test methods cover a broad range of testing activities. To help decide the subject matter for particular testing, the standard is divided into a general four-section, which applies to all materials and structures for stress relaxation test.
Scope:
This test method is used to determine stress relaxation of materials and structures under conditions of Constant environment, Constraint, and negligible vibration. In this test, the testing material or structure is initially constrained by extremely applied forces and changes in external forces to keep constraint are determined as a function of time. Specific methods for conducting stress relaxation tests on materials subjected to tension, compression, bending and torsion stresses are described in sections A, B, C, and D, respectively.

Strain will be taken as equal to the angle of twist per unit length, multiplied by the radius of the specimen.
1. The initial maximum torsional stress may be calculated as follows, Obtain a torque versus angle-of-twist-per-unit-length curve up to the desired angle of twist, If the curve is linear, use the following equations.
1.1 For a cylindrical specimen
Where,
τ0 = initial maximum torsional stress,
T0 = initial torque,
d = specimen diameter.
1.2. for a tubular specimen,
Where,
d0 = specimen outside diameter,
di = specimen inside diameter.
2. If the torque-twist curve is nonlinear, the initial maximum torsional stress can be estimated for a cylindrical specimen or for a thin-walled tubular specimen.
2.1 For a cylindrical specimen,
Where
θ = angle of twist per unit length at torque T0, and
α = slope of the torque-twist curve at torque τ0.
3. The accuracy with which the remaining torsional stress may be determined, at any instant, depends upon the nature of the specimen.
3.1For a thin-walled tubular specimen, the remaining torsional stress may be approximated by,
ASTM E572 test method covers the analysis of stainless and alloy steels by Wavelength Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (WDXRF). It provides rapid, multi-element determinations with sufficient accuracy to assure product quality.
The ASTM D2674 test is a standard test method for the analysis of sulfochromate etch solutions used in the surface preparation of aluminum. The ASTM D2674 standard specifies a method for determining the efficacy of an etchant used to prepare the surface of aluminum alloys for subsequent adhesive bonding.
An immunological method for quantization of Hevea Natural Rubber (HNRL) proteins using rabbit anti-HNRL serum. Rabbits immunized with HNRL proteins react to the majority of the proteins present, and their sera have the capability to detect most if not all the proteins in HNRL.
ASTM G65 measures the resistance of metallic materials to abrasion using the dry sand/rubber wheel apparatus. The quality, durability, and toughness of the sample are determined using this test. Metallic materials are ranked in their resistance to scratching abrasion under a controlled environment.
ASTM E2141 test methods provide accelerated aging and monitoring of the performance of time-dependent electrochromic devices (ECD) integrated in insulating glass units (IGU). This test helps to understand the relative serviceability of electrochromic glazings applied on ECD.
ASTM C724 test method is used in analyzing the quality and ease of maintenance of a ceramic decoration on architectural-type glass. This test method is useful in the acknowledgment of technical standards.
