Abstract
"In this investigation an attempt has been made to determine the effects of hydraulic pressure on SR-4, type A-5 strain gages. A thick-walled aluminum alloy cylinder without end constraint was used to make an experimental study of the effects of hydraulic pressure on these strain gages.
The behavior of this cylinder under different internal hydraulic pressures was also studied by measuring the strains by means of strain gages which were attached to the inside and outside surface of the cylinder. The problem has been studied by applying pressures up to 4800 psi.
Because of the high internal fluid pressures various methods of closing the cylinder ends had to be considered and evaluated"--Abstract, page ii.
