Introduction This report summarizes the results of a series of cyclic load tests and post-testing evaluations that were performed on ACCC (Aluminum Conductor Composite Core) … on a material or on a structural component that causes degradation of the material and ultimately leads to fatigue. Cyclic loading is defined as the continuous and repeated application of a load (fluctuating stresses, strains, forces, tensions, etc.) Fatigue crack propagation test ing usually involves constant-load-amplitude cy-~ 10 -l 1-----l-~" c ~ Cycles to failure Fig. X .RIS For RefWorks, EndNote, ProCite, Reference Manager, Zoteo, and many others. The goal of such testing is to confirm that the product will perform reliably, and to get an opportunity to subject it to simulations of many different real world conditions.
Cyclic loading causes materials to deteriorate due to fatigue, often at lower loads and after a shorter time than normally expected. However, as in crack initiation, there are a number of additional factors that may exert a strong influence, includ ing environment, frequency, temperature, and grain direction. A cyclic test is a type of test in which a product, material, or object of interest is subjected to repeated testing, instead of a single test cycle.

Since these loads are cyclic, the loading process simulates the actions and their effects on the specimens. 5.1 These cyclic test methods are intended to measure the performance of vertical elements of the lateral force resisting system subjected to earthquake loads.

The AEP Sequential Mechanical Test procedure for the ACCC conductor should be repeated to establish the upper tension limits of the ACCC conductor to account for possible plastic deformation of the aluminum strands.
