Young’s modulus of a 2.25Cr–1Mo steel at elevated temperature

Abstract
Dynamic Young’s modulus of a virgin and creep-damaged 2.25Cr–1Mo steel at high temperature has been evaluated non-destructively using the impulse excitation technique. The system developed to measure Young’s modulus at temperature in flexure mode is given. Young’s modulus-temperature relations are obtained providing useful information for structural analysis/design.
