Provides a detailed overview of what mechanical testing is, why and when it is performed, and how it is performed. Examples illustrate how "the measurement of the response of a body to an externally applied force" helps to quantify important measures like electrical conductivity and tensile strength.
The DVD describes how various mechanical testing methods are of critical importance in the selection of materials, research and development, and quality control. Standardized test procedures and standards, specialized equipment for testing, and collection and processing of test data are also described.
This DVD is designed for:
~ New employees working with a particular material or process
~ Sales and purchasing personnel
~ Engineers from related disciplines (electrical, design, manufacturing, mechanical)
~ Managers from departments that interact with materials engineering
