Abstract
This chapter is structured into two main parts. Section 5.1 provides an overview of the most common methods for mechanical testing of materials. In this section, the different available and standardized methods are further subdivided into quasistatic and dynamic testing methods. The former include, e. g., tensile and hardness testing, while the latter focus on impact and cyclic testing, including linear elastic fracture mechanics. Section 5.2 introduces the most common electrical (Sect. 5.2.1) and thermal (Sect. 5.2.2) physical properties for all material classes relevant for mechanical engineering applications.
