The Bend Test for Brittle Materials
Bend test - Application of a force to the center of a bar
that is supported on each end to determine the
resistance of the material to a static or slowly applied
load.
Flexural strength or modulus of rupture -The stress
required to fracture a specimen in a bend test.
Flexural modulus - The modulus of elasticity calculated
from the results of a bend test, giving the slope of the
stress-deflection curve.

Hardness of Materials
Hardness test - Measures the resistance of a material to
penetration by a sharp object.
Macrohardness - Overall bulk hardness of materials
measured using loads >2 N.
Microhardness Hardness of materials typically measured
using loads less than 2 N using such test as Knoop
(HK).
Nano-hardness - Hardness of materials measured at 1
10 nm length scale using extremely small (~100 N)
forces.

Strain Rate Effects and Impact
Behavior
Impact test - Measures the ability of a material to absorb
the sudden application of a load without breaking.
Impact energy - The energy required to fracture a
standard specimen when the load is applied suddenly.
Impact toughness - Energy absorbed by a material,
usually notched, during fracture, under the conditions of
impact test.
Fracture toughness - The resistance of a material to
failure in the presence of a flaw.

Properties Obtained from the Impact
Test
Ductile to brittle transition temperature (DBTT) - The
temperature below which a material behaves in a brittle
manner in an impact test.
Notch sensitivity - Measures the effect of a notch,
scratch, or other imperfection on a materials properties,
such as toughness or fatigue life.
