Abstract
A method for measuring the load, strain and strain rate inside a high-temperature environment is described. Results of tests on specimens of high-purity copper are reported. Results indicate that copper is strain-rate dependent within the temperature range 78°–1000° F up to strains of 0.6 percent and strain rates of 103 sec−1.
