Forms: Charpy impact tests [plural]
Etymology: Named for French scientist Georges Charpy (1865–1945). Head templates: {{en-noun|head=Charpy impact test}} Charpy impact test (plural Charpy impact tests)
  1. A test of the impact strength of a material, used to determine its relative ductility or brittleness. The test is executed by swinging a large, heavy hammer on a pendulum from a predetermined height. The hammer fractures the material sample, usually a block of a certain size with a notch cut in it. The height to which the pendulum swings is used to calculate the energy necessary to fracture the sample.
