Beskrivning

This book offers a comprehensive and in-depth exploration of the most widely used test methods for characterizing the deformation and failure behavior of materials. It presents a thorough treatise on mechanical testing, providing a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and students seeking to understand the mechanical properties and performance of materials across various applications.The book is organized into ten chapters dedicated to specific test methods including tensile, compression, bending, torsion, multiaxial, indentation, fracture, fatigue, creep, high strain rates, nondestructive evaluation, ensuring a thorough examination of each technique's principles, procedures, and applications. It features two special chapters focusing specifically on the mechanical characterization of concrete and fiber composite materials. These chapters delve into the unique aspects and challenges associated with testing and analyzing these specific materials.
