Summary
An evaluation was undertaken to compare the results of various thicknesses of flat tensile specimens with results of round specimens from the same uranium plate, and to analyze the effect of some of the fabrication and testing variables on the test results. Flat specimens gave good reproducibility, particularly at thicknesses of 0.150 and 0.200 inch, but showed biases when compared to round specimens which varied as a function of thickness. Fabrication variables such as omitting hand polishing produced small increases in the bias and a substantial increase in the scatter of the results. Specimen alignment was found to have a substantial influence on the shape of the curve obtained.
