Charpy impact test: how would you write a procedure section?
This week, we have looked at the information that goes in a procedure section, the typical language conventions that this section should follow and the importance of a good experimental figure. Now let’s consider how we would apply this to describe a real engineering experiment.
In this video, we’ll revisit the Charpy impact experiment. As you watch the video, make a note of the information you would want to include in a procedure section.
- What information from the video would you be sure to include?
- Is there anything in the video that wouldn’t be relevant?
- What information do you think is missing?
- What figures might you want to include?
