  2. Stress testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_testing

    The stress test can result in three outcomes: Pass, Partly Pass and Fail, based on the comparison of the quantified risks to acceptable risk exposure levels and a penalty system. Phase 3: Decision, during which the results of the stress test are analyzed according to the goal and objectives defined in Phase 1. Critical events (events that most ...

  3. Cardiac stress test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_stress_test

    A cardiac stress test is a cardiological examination that evaluates the cardiovascular system's response to external stress within a controlled clinical setting. This stress response can be induced through physical exercise (usually a treadmill) or intravenous pharmacological stimulation of heart rate.

  4. Stress–strain analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_analysis

    Stress–strain analysis (or stress analysis) is an engineering discipline that uses many methods to determine the stresses and strains in materials and structures subjected to forces. In continuum mechanics , stress is a physical quantity that expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other ...

  5. Highly accelerated life test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highly_accelerated_life_test

    A highly accelerated life test (HALT) is a stress testing methodology for enhancing product reliability in which prototypes are stressed to a much higher degree than expected from actual use in order to identify weaknesses in the design or manufacture of the product. [1]

  6. Stress–strain curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_curve

    Stress–strain curve typical of a low-carbon steel Stress–strain curve for a tensile test For broader coverage of this topic, see Stress–strain analysis . In engineering and materials science , a stress–strain curve for a material gives the relationship between stress and strain .

    Rockwell hardness test (HR), principally used in the USA; Shore durometer hardness, used for polymers; Barcol hardness test, for composite materials; Tensile testing, used to obtain the stress-strain curve for a material, and from there, properties such as Young modulus, yield (or proof) stress, tensile stress and % elongation to failure ...

  8. Hardware stress test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_stress_test

    A stress test (sometimes called a torture test) of hardware is a form of deliberately intense and thorough testing used to determine the stability of a given system or entity. It involves testing beyond normal operational capacity , often to a breaking point, in order to observe the results.
