Mechanical tests refer to a variety of assessment methods used to evaluate the mechanical properties of materials. These tests are essential in materials science and engineering, as they help determine how materials behave under different stress and environmental conditions. The results from these tests can inform decisions related to material selection, quality control, design, manufacturing processes, and safety. Some common types of mechanical tests include: 1. **Tensile Testing**: Measures how a material reacts to forces applied in tension.
