Video Contest Winner:
Congratultions to Dipl.-Ing. Stefan Lutz from the Institute of Manufacturing Technology - Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen-Nuremberg on winning the Gleeble Photo and Video Contest.
Stefan posted a video of a tensile test starting at 860°C austenitised and rapidly cooled to 600°C quenched steel with a strainrate of 1/s. The test was filmed with a framerate of 400 pictures per second and was slowed down by a factor of 40. The overlayed color shows the major strain distribution computed by their optical measurement system. The test was performed on a Gleeble 1500.
