Graphs Page

Figure IV-61

Use this page to graphically display yield test data both on-line (i.e. while the test is running) and

after it is collected.

Two (2) graphs are displayed on this page.

1. % Torque vs. Time

This graph displays the % Torque values versus the time (since the beginning of the

Run cycle) at which the data points were collected. Torque is displayed in units of %

of full scale range while the Time is displayed in seconds.

2. Stress vs. Apparent Strain

This graph displays the calculated Stress values versus the calculated Apparent Strain

values for each data point collected. Stress is displayed in units of Pascals (Pa) while

Apparent strain is displayed in units of radians (rad).

See Appendix D2 - Spindle Codes and Speeds for Yield Tests - for more information regarding these

calculated values.

Double-clicking on either graph enlarges or zooms that graph and displays it on the left side while

shrinking the other graph and displaying it on the right.

The three (3) toolbars on the right side of the page can be resized and moved within the confines of

the toolbar box by clicking and dragging the toolbar sizer located to the left of the toolbar title.
