In summary, the conversation discusses the importance of mechanical testing and the types of mechanical testing. The speaker also asks for information on a website where they can search for terms and the other person suggests a library with a variety of useful materials on mechanical testing. The conversation ends with the speaker asking for more specific information and the other person explaining the limitations of providing such broad information.

In a decent library there are several shelves on mechanical testing items. Very useful information and often they even lend books ...

It is way, way too broad of a question for us to provide useful help. Please narrow the focus and tell us what you have found. We can't teach a college level course in one thread.Rajesh Shirsagar said:
FAQ: Can Mechanical Testing Provide Useful Information?
What is mechanical testing?
Mechanical testing is a process used to determine the mechanical properties of a material, such as its strength, ductility, and toughness. It involves subjecting the material to various forces and measuring its response, which can help determine its suitability for specific applications.
Why is mechanical testing important?
Mechanical testing is important because it helps engineers and scientists understand how a material will behave under different conditions and forces. This information is crucial for designing safe and reliable products and structures, as well as for quality control in manufacturing processes.
What types of materials can be tested using mechanical testing?
Almost any type of material can be tested using mechanical testing, including metals, plastics, ceramics, and composites. Each material may require different testing methods and equipment, but the overall goal is to measure its mechanical properties.
What are some common methods used in mechanical testing?
Some common methods used in mechanical testing include tensile testing, compression testing, impact testing, and hardness testing. Each method involves subjecting the material to different types of forces and measuring its response, providing valuable information about its strength and durability.
How is mechanical testing different from other types of testing?
Mechanical testing specifically focuses on the mechanical properties of a material, while other types of testing may focus on other properties such as chemical or thermal properties. Mechanical testing also involves subjecting the material to external forces, rather than just observing its natural behavior.
