Youngs modulus test data for IN 718 material at 20 °C

In May 1985 a European programme on intercomparison of low cycle fatigue (LCF) testing was started under the auspices of the EEC Community Bureau of Reference (BCR). Subsequently, as a result of the Versailles Project on Advanced Materials and Standards (VAMAS), a wider international participation was sought. The objective of the programme was to establish a set of high temperature LCF data representative of accepted testing practice and, subsequently, to identify the significant aspects of testing procedure affecting the repeatability and reproducibility as a basis for defining a standard test procedure. In view of the potential influence of material characteristics on LCF life, three classes of alloy were selected for testing according to their cyclic strain behaviour, namely strain-hardening, strain-softening, and stable. This data collection consists of test results on IN 718 alloy at 550°C, which is representative of the cyclic strain-softening case.
