Damage Tolerance Testing

Damage Tolerance Testing is a structural testing methodology that evaluates the ability of a material or structure to safely sustain expected loads without catastrophic failure despite the presence of pre-existing flaws or damage, distinguished from other testing approaches by its focus on the temporal evolution and propagation of damage under operational conditions.
