Description
Summary:The aim of macroscopic fracture mechanics is to provide engineers a means of designing against fracture in engineering structures in a more quantitative manner by failure analysis. Thus the project involved the microanalysis of the suitcase lock assembly by studying the fracture surface via Scanning Electron Microscopy after visual observations and coming out with a failure hypothesis.
