Abstract

This report describes the test equipment, process, analysis, and data-file formats for the tension/compression testing of the four materials associated with the Numisheet conference Benchmarks. The four materials include two steels alloys, DP980 for Benchmark 1 and DP1180 for Benchmark 2, and two 6000 series aluminum alloys, AA6xxx-T4 for Benchmark 1 and AA6xxx- T81 for Benchmark 2, that will be referred to here as BM1-DP980, BM2-DP1180, BM1-6xxx-T4, and BM2-6xxx-T81, respectively. The testing reported here was requested by the 2020 Numisheet Benchmark Committee and was performed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Center for Automotive Lightweighting (NCAL) in Gaithersburg, MD. This data can be found using digital object identifier https://doi.org/10.18434/M32202.
