Table 2.

Stiffness calculations of components.

Components Length (mm) Sectional Area (mm2) Elastic Modulus (MPa) Stiffness (kN/mm)
Symbol Value
Heated column 1000 3848 210,000 KHC 808.17
Thread column 800 3318 210,000 KTC 871.06
Upper thread rod 300 1963 210,000 KUTR 1374.45
Specimen 300 10,000 30,000 KS 1000.00
Oil cylinder * 300 6362 2000 KOC 42.41

* In the stiffness calculation, the oil cylinder is simplified as a compressed cylinder with the elastic modulus transformed from the bulk modulus of hydraulic oil.
