ASTM E2899 Measurement of Initiation Toughness in Surface Cracks
ASTM E2899 test method deals with the measurement of toughness in fatigue sharpened, semi-elliptical surface cracks under tension and bending. This method is used to detect the initiation of crack extension in detail under specific conditions and applies to homogeneous metallic materials that are stress-free. SI units are considered to be standard.

ASTM E2899 Measurement of Initiation Toughness in Surface Cracks
ASTM E2899 test method deals with the measurement of toughness in fatigue sharpened, semi-elliptical surface cracks under tension and bending. This method is used to detect the initiation of crack extension in detail under specific conditions and applies to homogeneous metallic materials that are stress-free. SI units are considered to be standard.
Scope:
ASTM E2899 test method defines a standard for test and analysis of surface cracks that aid in research and helps explain test specimens in three regimes: an elastic-plastic regime, a linear-elastic regime, and a field-collapse regime. It provides details about the design, crack-front behavior, and toughness of the material. The electric potential, crack mouth opening displacement, and acoustic emissions are detected in this method.
Procedure:
In ASTM E2899, the fracture toughness is calculated as a function of toughness and constraint values. The testing apparatus comprises notches and fatigue sharpening surface cracks with the specimens that show the tearing upon applying tension or bending force. The characteristics of the specimen are carefully measured, and the testing is initiated under displacement control. Mechanical alignment is used to deal with non-uniformity. A bend testing fixture is installed, and the tension is applied to the specimen. The region of the crack is observed and compared with material properties.
Specimen size
For ASTM E2899 testing, the specimen size should be as per requirements, with the weight and length measurements taken as follows:
W ≥ 5 × 2 c and L ≥ 2W.
Here, c= surface crack length
Data:
A toughness-constraint locus is created in ASTM E2899 testing by comparing Kφ or Jφ to the values obtained in the variable constraints of the specimens. Calculate Kφ with the specimen dimensions, crack dimensions, initiation force (Pi) or moment (Mi), and the initiation angle (φi) using the appropriate equations.
Conclusion:
ASTM E2899 test method defines a standard for test and analysis of surface cracks that aid in research and helps explain test specimens in three regimes: an elastic-plastic regime, a linear-elastic regime, and a field-collapse regime.
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.
