Destructive material testing : Tensile, compressive, cyclic and fatigue testing of high strength and low strength alloys
Our Destructive Testing services provide critical insights into the strength, durability, and failure limits of materials and components. By intentionally subjecting specimens to extreme conditions, we evaluate mechanical properties such as tensile strength, impact resistance, and fracture behavior. These tests ensure compliance with industry standards and support quality assurance, product development, and failure analysis.
In addition to metals, we are particularly interested in a wide range of solid materials including composites, biomedical solids, polymers, and civil engineering structures such as soil, cement, glass, and rocks. Our expertise spans various industries, ensuring precise and reliable results to help you build safer, more resilient products and infrastructure.
Micro and Nano-Scale Indentation Testing
Our Micro and Nano-Scale Indentation Testing services are designed to precisely assess the mechanical properties and structural integrity of materials at small scales. By applying controlled force through high-resolution indenters, we can accurately determine hardness, elastic modulus, and other critical properties of thin films, coatings, and microstructures.
This technique is essential for quality control, material development, and performance evaluation, especially in advanced materials and miniature components. We also support forensic and investigative studies, using indentation testing to analyze failed parts and uncover root causes of material degradation or failure.
Finite element analysis
We offer advanced Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to simulate tensile and indentation tests, providing deep insights into material behavior under stress. Our models incorporate detailed damage analysis to capture the initiation and progression of failure mechanisms, such as cracking, yielding, and delamination.
By integrating experimental data with computational simulations, we accurately predict mechanical responses and identify critical stress zones. This approach supports material design, performance optimization, and failure prevention. Our FEA capabilities are especially valuable in understanding complex materials and structures across industries—from aerospace and biomedical to civil and polymer engineering.
