A test for determining the punishment a cable can withstand without physical or electrical breakdown by impacting with a given weight, dropped a given distance, in a controlled environment.
The relative toughness of various plastics materials, that is, their ability to withstand fracture, is measured by various scientific tests that give specific numerical ratings for purposes of comparison. The " falling dart" test is just what its name suggests; the test result is expressed by a number indicating the foot-pounds of energy required to break a standard sample of the material.
Energy required to fracture a specimen subjected to shock loading, as in an impact test. Alternate terms are impact energy, impact value, impact resistance and energy absorption. It is an indication of the toughness of the material.
The impact resistance of the steel; determined by subjecting a standard form sample of steel to impact from a special type of power hammer.
The energy required to break a standard-size specimen using a weighted pendulum.
Ability to resist shock, as measured by a suitable testing machine.
Resistance of a material or product to shock, such as from dropping and hard blows.
A material's ability to withstand shock loading as measured by the work done in fracturing a specimen.
The measurement of the ability to withstand shock loading.
A measure of a plastic partâ€(tm)s ability to withstand the effects of dropping and/or striking. There are two commonly used test methods, Notched Izod and Tup. Notched Izod uses a pendulum-type machine to strike a notched specimen. Tup testing uses a falling weight (tup) to strike a pipe or fitting specimen.
The ability of a material to withstand shock loading.
The ability of a material to withstand a shock load.
ability to withstand physical shock loading or work required to fracture under shock loading a specified test specimen in a specified manner.
the energy absorbed by a specimen under a sudden blow of a certain intensity.
The ability of an object or material to resist rapidly applied destructive forces.
Resistance to sharp, intense blows or force.
Property that characterizes material behaviour under high speed loading. Pendulum and falling weight type testers are applied here. Specimen can be either plaques, notched or unnotched bars or parts of finished products. There are several impact methods like Charpy impact test, instrumented puncture test and tensile impact test. Generally impact test shows the energy which is needed to break or puncture a specimen under specified conditions. In some tests it is possible to accurately record force - deformation transient curves and calculate specific parameters describing material behaviour under impact loading.
