Selection of Materials for a particular application is a difficult task, to select a proper material for a particular application it is must to know about the material characteristics.
Mechanical properties such as tensile, compressive, impact, shear, strengths, Hardness etc., are the primary properties for design of any device.
As a Mechanical engineer, this is must to know how to measure and analyze the above properties by using various testing instruments.
To supplement the theoretical knowledge gained in Mechanics of Solids with practical testing for determining the strength of materials under externally applied loads.
This would enable the student to have a clear understanding of the design for strength and stiffness.
