The Plane Strain Compression (PSC) test is a laboratory experiment used to study the mechanical behavior of materials, specifically in the context of their deformation and flow characteristics under compressive loading conditions. This test is particularly relevant for materials that are subjected to large strains in one direction and relatively constrained in the other two dimensions, allowing for the simulation of conditions that materials might experience in practical applications.
